Ferrari's major F1 problem is back - and it's lost a big strength
Ferrari’s title bid has started in a very disappointing way, after it was easily beaten by Red Bull and its lead car suffered the all too familiar fate of retiring because of an engine problem. New team boss Fred Vasseur said after the season opener in Bahrain that he needed to stick to what he had said in the build-up: that Ferrari could not win or lose the championship at the first race. But it clearly has a big task ahead to catch and beat Red Bull, and its troubled start to the new season didn’t even include a carryover of some of the positives it could take when things went wrong last year. Add in the immediate return of a big 2022 weakness, which was meant to be resolved, and things look even worse. 00:00 A nightmare start 00:52 The big problem 03:21 Lack of speed 06:40 What's the true picture?

Nuestra clasificación de los equipos de F1 de 2023 de peor a mejor tras los test de pretemporada
Después de 25h y media de pruebas de pretemporada, en las que 22 pilotos completaron casi 4mil vueltas o 22mil km, es hora de que clasifiquemos a los 10 equipos de Fórmula 1 de peor a mejor. Cualquier intento de hacerlo debe ser visto con el entendimiento de que es una instantánea del orden como lo vimos después de tres días en Bahrein, no una predicción enfática para la carrera inaugural de la temporada o la clasificación final del campeonato. Hemos tenido en cuenta la velocidad a una vuelta, el ritmo en tandas largas, las impresiones en pista y los comentarios de los equipos, luego hemos leído un poco entre líneas y después hemos hecho algunas conjeturas para tratar de determinar las diferencias entre la clasificación de las pruebas y la realidad. Por lo tanto, esta clasificación se basa en las pruebas de los últimos días. Las cosas pueden cambiar de aquí a la carrera inaugural a medida que los equipos profundicen más en sus paquetes, y algunos incluso tengan listas sus primeras grandes actualizaciones de la temporada. Pero basta de advertencias, sigamos con ello, y una vez que hayas terminado de verlo, ataca la sección de los comentarios. Estamos ya preparados para recibirlos. #F1 #redbullracing #ferrari #mercedes https://www.the-race.com http://www.twitter.com/wearetherace_es
Why Ferrari and Mercedes are the only teams not copying Red Bull's F1 car
Nothing that’s happened in F1 testing has dented Red Bull’s status as pre-season favourite in 2023. It set an ominous pace over the three days in Bahrain and once again looks like the car to beat. What testing has done is prove that main rivals Ferrari, which looked quick over a lap but struggled more over long runs, and Mercedes, which battled balance problems, are determined to go their own way with their cars. Other than Mercedes and Ferrari, almost every team in F1 has edged more in the direction of Red Bull’s concept – save for Haas, which is locked into a more Ferrari-esque style owing to their shared components. That’s because Red Bull is F1’s most successful car and, presumably, because those teams have evaluated Red Bull’s ideas back at their factories and seen enough to make them believe it’s the right way to go for these still-young ground effect regulations. So why are Mercedes and Ferrari so convinced that their alternative approaches are going to work? Just how different are the three cars and is there any chance that Red Bull might not be on the right track for the long term? 00:00 Red Bull copycats 00:59 Comparing the big three 03:40 Different approaches 06:39 Midfield opportunity?

Why Red Bull hasn't been able to move on from the Max Verstappen / Sergio Perez F1 controversy
The fallout from Max Verstappen’s refusal to follow team orders at the Brazilian Grand Prix to help Sergio Perez continued into the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix weekend, with the team taking responsibility for handling the situation poorly, and also condemning the abuse Red Bull and its drivers have been subjected to since Sunday night at Interlagos. Red Bull had hoped that the behind-closed-doors discussions that took place on Sunday night would be the end of the matter. But it appears the saga has rumbled on behind the scenes, leading to the team issuing a statement about it on Thursday in Abu Dhabi. #RedBull #MaxVerstappen #SergioPerez Subscribe: http://the-race.com/youtube_subscribe Website: http://the-race.com/ Twitter: @wearetherace Instagram: @wearetherace Facebook: http://facebook.com/wearetherace Podcasts: http://the-race.com/podcasts Thanks for watching - please like, share and comment, please also hit subscribe to show your support so we'll keep doing what we're doing. https://www.the-race.com http://www.twitter.com/wearetherace
The real reasons Haas ditched Mick Schumacher for Nico Hulkenberg in F1
After months of speculation, it’s finally been confirmed: Mick Schumacher will not race for Haas in 2023, with Nico Hulkenberg making a full-time return to Formula 1 in his place. It’s a decision that’s been a long time coming given Hulkeberg was first linked to the seat in early September. Eponymous team owner Gene Haas and Guenther Steiner gave Schumacher every chance to prove himself, but ultimately decided not to keep him both for on and off-track reasons. The second Haas seat alongside Kevin Magnussen was the last vacancy on the 2023 grid, meaning the full line-up for next season is in place. #F1news #Haas #MickSchumacher 00:00 Schumacher out, Hulkenberg in 00:54 Why Schumacher was dropped 03:04 Did Mick deserve another chance? 06:02 Why Hulkenberg?

McLaren's unexpected boost for its Daniel Ricciardo replacement in F1
McLaren’s Formula 1 driver plans for 2023 featured a major risk when it became clear the team wanted to bin a multiple grand prix winner, in Daniel Ricciardo, for a rookie that McLaren hadn’t even evaluated itself. Oscar Piastri’s switch from Alpine to McLaren was one of this season’s biggest talking points, and the move was so contentious that Alpine spent a long time playing hardball. In an unexpected twist, though, McLaren, Piastri and Alpine have finally reached a mutual understanding - handing a boost to McLaren and the man tasked with succeeding where Ricciardo failed. #F1 #McLaren #OscarPiastri 00:00 McLaren's driver gamble 00:38 Piastri's early release 04:06 Why it matters 06:21 Who else is moving early?
