Anyway this track should be better for Ferrari, because here the aero settings (quite more load in Mugello) are very different from Monza, so they should be more competitive this weekend

Any truth in the rumour that it took a month to be confirmed because Vettel drove there in his Ferrari?
LOL

Speaking of which...

Hamilton @ P1 👍 (95th Pole Position 😲)

Aside from his extreme skill & talent, he is also extremely lucky! He is the only one who was able to run and complete a final flying lap then yellow flags started 😗

Nobody was going to beat his lap time anyway. Except maybe Bottas. But then again...

Lucky?
No, it was me 😎: I was pushing him, wearing this customized Connected Monaco #44... enough positive energy to take the Pole Position by just 0.059s! 😁

1000th Scuderia Ferrari Grand Prix!
Hamilton’s 95th Pole Position, Mercedes front row!
P3 & P4 for Red Bull Racing!
Aggressive race track. Lots of flat out cornering.
Tire wear will be crucial. First time ever for Formula 1.
This should be exciting! 😁 (crossing fingers)

According to Planet F1 Merc are about to sell out....
https://www.planetf1.com/news/ineos-buy-mercedes/

Albert be like = 😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲

But according to Motorsport.com they might be a shareholding.
There were already rumors in the past that Mercedes was going to leave F1 at the end of 2020, then at the end of 2021... they said that is why Hamilton was not signing yet, and none of that was proven true. Recent long-term endorsement deals, and the signing of the Concorde Agreement, proved otherwise. It seems that there are people :whipped: who entertain themselves by inventing rumors and fake news about Mercedes.

So at the moment I do not give more importance to this one, unless there is an official communication 😉

Yeah you see Stroll’s car was in the middle of the track and somehow blocking the pitlane entrance as well. So they had to red flag obviously.

Old school track, old school thrills! Would have liked to have seen Daniel make it to the podium.

What a racing track, and what a race in Mugello! 🍿


It was interesting to compare the speed of the F1 (1min15s per lap) vs the MotoGP (1min45s)... so in just three laps, the F1 already would lap a MotoGP and taking 15s of extra advantage! 🤪


Hamilton lost the lead in the first of the three starts, but he made a very good movement in the second start to recover the first position, and he also made a good third start to keep it and win his 90th GP, even taking the extra point for the fastest lap at the end of the race 😎


Strong 1-2 for the black silver arrows in this crazy race, extending the lead in both standings. Max had again a technical problem in his car, and then was hit by other cars, so only Albon scored points for RBR with his maiden podium after fighting with Ricciardo...


About the Safety Car and its red livery because of the 1000 GP for Ferrari... please come back to silver, because it was not very fortunate here. Someone in race direction gave the order to switch off the lights too late, and the restart was a disaster 😲

And at this 1000 GP for Ferrari 😗, Kimi and his Alfa were again faster than Vettel! 😁 But it was sad watching Leclerc -after a good start- being overtaken by so many cars like he was driven a F2! 🤦


After the #TuscanGP Hamilton is more comfortably leading now, with 55 points over Bottas


and Mercedes-AMG is taking much more points of advantage over RBR
