Is the #Ferrari slow or is #Leclerc just that fast? Leclerc had much better pace and degradation compared to #Sainz on the softs. He was even keeping pace with #Perez. Leclerc is for Ferrari what #Verstappen is for #Redbull. It's a shame about the DNF. #F1 #BahrainGP

Hey all! Just wanted to let you know that I'll be operating on an ad-hoc schedule this season. I want to do a refresh of things and also find a better balance between all my commitments. Thanks for the support so far and continuing support in this next phase ♥️🙏.

Forgot to turn my out of office on - whoops. Sorry for no content these last two races, currently on holiday! Looking forward to next season! #f1

Another stellar drive from #Norris to capitalise on #Leclerc's vacant P2 grid slot and showcase #McLaren's impressive race pace. And after several disappointing races, #Alonso puts #AstonMartin back on the podium, pipping #Perez by less than 0.1 seconds at the line. #F1 #BrazilGP

#Norris' final stint was very impressive - at times lapping at a similar pace to #Hamilton despite lacking clean air. #Ferrari had excellent pace on the first stint - even with damage! But their commitment to the hards left them in no man's land vs the front. #F1 #MexicoGP

The red flag was like a rag to a bull for #Norris in the final stint as he stormed the field to finish P5 for the #MexicoGP. His final stint pace was rapid, lapping at front front-running pace. #Tsunoda had a similar story until his tangle with #Piastri ruined his race. #F1

Many drivers struggled to hook up the perfect lap due to changing track conditions. The only ones that could were #Ferrari and those who ran the new tyres in their 2nd run vs old tyres in their 1st run. #Ricciardo did superbly to be fastest in S3 and start P4. #F1 #MexicoGP

Taking a closer look at the telemetry shows that while all three drivers were close in pace, the main difference came down to #Leclerc finding more performance in the braking zones and slow corners. #Verstappen was fast through the esses of S2 but lacked it in S3. (2/2) #CL16

#Leclerc takes a surprising pole position for the #MexicoGP. A cooling track left things unpredictable as both #Ferrari's found almost 1 second of extra pace in Q3 vs other sessions. Their final runs were slower showing the magic window was very short-lived. (1/2) #F1

A day late, a dollar short and a few plank shavings too many left #Hamilton out of reach of challenging #Verstappen in the closing stages of the #USGP. The offset strategy did wonders for pace. #Norris did well to hold off #Sainz despite the M-H-H strategy. #F1

#Verstappen had the pace for P1 but a mistake in T19 deleted the lap! #Norris did well to line up in P2 despite the #Mercedes having better raw pace as #Hamilton couldn't nail the perfect lap. #Gasly was just shy of a few extra grid slots. Austin seems to suit #Ferrari. #F1 #USGP

A closer look at the telemetry indicates #Leclerc is taking a cautious approach to T19 shown by his under speed. This saves him from losing to track limits but comes at a risk. However, the #Ferrari had strong traction out of the slower corners which was enough in the end. (2/2)

#Verstappen goes wide at T19 and opens the door for #Leclerc to take pole position at the #USGP. But #Leclerc almost held the door for #Norris at the same corner! #McLaren kept in touch with Ferrari (who were strong here) but Leclerc's conservatism gave Norris a chance. (1/2) #F1

#McLaren's race pace was something special at the #QatarGP - finishing within 5 seconds of #Verstappen. The RB was dominant in the first stint, but longer stints had him slightly vulnerable in the end. #Russell was flying - what could have been without the lap 1 crash? #F1

Another double podium for #McLaren as #Verstappen wraps up the championship at the #QatarGP! A career-best P2 finish for @OscarPiastri with improved race pace compared to Japan. Strong finishes for #Norris after starting P10 and #Russell who crashed on the first lap. #F1

How did @OscarPiastri hold off #Verstappen in the final stages of the #QatarGP Sprint? The rookie driver held his margin thanks to the cornering performance through sectors 1 and 2. Tyre and energy management aided in pushing hard on the final 2 laps to keep Max out of DRS. #F1

A stressful but fruitful race for @OscarPiastri as he took his first win in his rookie season. After losing out to #Russell on the softs, #Piastri fought back to reclaim position and survive multiple safety cars. His pace was solid - even holding off #Verstappen. #F1 #QatarGP

What a #sprint as @OscarPiastri takes his first win! Mixed tyres and multiple safety cars created plenty of unpredictability. The softs were fast from the start but degraded quickly - handing the advantage to the medium runners. Warm-up post safety cars was key. #F1 #QatarGP

A closer look at the telemetry sheds light on #Leclerc's downshift issues. The problem results in a larger-than-expected loss of speed that costs ~0.2s through T13/14. This likely would put him ahead of #Hamilton and maybe #Russell. (2/2) #F1 #QatarGP #CL16

With #McLaren out from track limits, #Mercedes lined up in P2 and P3 - ahead of #Leclerc, plagued by a rogue gearbox. Mercedes has good traction, most notably in the slower T6 and T10. #Ferrari has better top-end performance but an issue in T13 cost them. (1/2) #F1 #QatarGP
