Syn 2 Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 I'm more curious about where Haas is currently at with sponsors, parts and chassis, crew/personnel, etc. Drivers are the least of their concerns unless they get a pay driver. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
couger1981 92 Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Apparently Mercedes wanted Red Bull banned for no less than three races, plus a disqualification for a further six months, suspended for a year over the fuel issue.Do you think Mercedes is feeling the pressure of the Red Bull cars gaining more speed each race?F1 Times Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also there will be situations where Merc have to get past Red Bull despite being much faster than them (e.g. Rosberg in China).Red Bull cars gaining more speed each race? Please. They finished twenty-plus seconds behind the lead Mercedes in all four races this season- and Merc still have plenty of speed in the bag, as evidenced by the last twelve laps of Bahrain. Imagine them pushing at that pace for the entire race- they'd lap the entire field. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Depends on whether they can find a way to extract more power from the Renault engine before Ferrari gets round its own lack of top speed. When they manage to tailor the car to Raikkonen's liking I suspect he'll be bothering the Red Bulls too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
couger1981 92 Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Yeah i doubt Merc will lap the field by the end of the year lol, seems Ricciardo has a better understanding of the car than Vettel in terms of getting the most speed out of it he was a second behind Alonso when they crossed the line.

couger1981 92 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Red Bull still favor Vettel by providing him with a new Chassis in Spain to get back to his best.F1 times Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VetteIfan 0 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Nope. Red Bull are providing him with a new chassis if in their analysis they find an issue with the current one, just a pre-cautionary thing. Seems logical enough to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

VetteIfan 0 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 You mistake my purpose Prawn. Just addressing that solitary point :P As I'm seemingly the only Vettel fan on the forum, AMS aside, getting in to arguments is always going to be a losing battle. As a matter of fact the reason I've not rejoined in so long is simply because I didn't know it existed. Fortunately onetwothree made a forum link on his twitter timeline.
