@Thank me later 🅥 I have a feeling this one will be uneventful. In Binotto's own words " if you loose the season but win Monza you save the season". Everyone at Ferrari will have their asses covered for this one because they now they'll probably get lynched by the Tifosi if something goes south.
Ferrari could double DNF through driver error in the closing laps of the race and as long as they (the team) don't do anything stupid it would be a win!
More like put full wets on start of the lap Pit for hards on lap 7 Pit medium at lap 10 Pit triangle at last lap then explode the c4 planted inside the car when its just 200 meters from the finish line
Ferrari are probably gonna turn up their engines to the max mode and take an extra penalty later in the season just so they have the advantage at Monza. Not that'll matter once they put Leclerc on wets in the dry and Sainz gets a 40 minute pitstop because they full on forget to bring the wheel gun from maranello
Ferrari is the only team that'll risk blowing up two cars and ceding 2nd in the WCC to Mercedes just to, maybe, win a home race. That mentality is part of why they won't win championships anytime soon.
@@glidertastic5778 how tf is that downplaying? Downplaying what? You can’t predict the future so that’s why they’re saying probably. Typical whingestappen fan
Next year could be hugely different, teams have had this year to figure out what works and what doesn’t, so can make big changes for next seasons cars.
Agree! but Merc will be in contention and will absolutely be strong at the tracks with lots of medium speed corners as they have been all year. Everything else Max will dominate. Next year will be an exciting season as I think you’ll see three teams on the podium all year.
If there’s one race where the red team have to put it all together, it’s this one. The Tifosi deserve nothing less than a win or at least a double podium.
Ferrari deserve a double DNF due to poor strategy... since that is what they seem to be pulling for each weekend anyway... maybe that kindof failure will get Binotto removed as TP, and let someone who actually knows something about racing run the team.
Wind in Monza is rare... very rare. I've lived in the area all my life until 2017 and usually wind is never there, especially early September, still hot, still humid and very sunny.
Something I am wondering which I feel have been forgotten about because of Mercs "terrible" season. When the teams rocked up at pre season testing, first event Merc had a normal car and then at Bahrain they showed up with their innovative design. Everyone were so excited about their sidepod-less design that would produce so little drag, but now everyone is talking baout how slow and draggy the Merc is. What gives?
Their ground effect downforce is lower than expected, so they have to run more wing on both ends. The drag vs. downforce on the wings is much higher than ground effect.
Expectations. Mercedes been a dominating in F1 since 2014, with hints of something coming out in 2012 and 2013. Anything else than winning all the races by 5 laps and sending everyone out of the 107% is seen as slow for Mercedes, nowadays. I am barely exaggerating.
It really depends on what the teams can run to optimize their laptimes, lower drag, lower downforce on a very fast circuit like Monza can be key but you still have to balance everything, so in my opinion in Monza we are gonna see the hugest differences of pace between teams, accounting for the Sprint Race and the grid penalties that might occur we are gonna get an exciting weekend ahead of us, with loads of overtakes made easier by the drs. None the less it's a RedBull 1-2, that thing has a cx of a mosquito.
Why? Simple: Monza is a high speed track so all cars already have minimal downforce. Therefore DRS won't add much top speed. I predict that the Red Bulls will have enough top speed without DRS to stay ahead of Ferrari's with DRS.
Wrong, 1 car vs 1 it is still very effective.. just look at how many passes happened into ascari last year, its when you get a train of people all reaching the same top speed stuck behind a car that is just slightly quicker anyway
I think it shouldn’t just be overtakes, but also information on gaps between drivers through corners and one or two laps after an overtake. The new regulations were aimed at closer racing, not necessarily more overtakes.
@@russell6075 maybe that’s a good thing. Too many easy overtakes are just dull, and cars not being able to follow closely just doesn’t get exciting. Close, hard fought battles that only sometime end up in an overtake, are imo the most captivating battles we could wish for (and it may also take a little while for car performance levels to converge more).
@@mscbijles1256 Ah yes, making the cars like boats is something good my god… Close racing doesn’t mean anything if you cannot overtake at the end of the straight or while cornering. Spending more than 1 lap to try and get a decent exit of the only corner that precedes a massive straight so you can easily overtake at the middle of the straight because of DRS is not fun at all mate. Whats the point of closer racing if then the slipstream is even weaker and you still need DRS because you cannot put your car alongside another at the end of the straight to try and get the overtake on the braking or while cornering. In motogp the first 10 guys are often in the same tenth, and in a lot of races you can see them switching positions constantly. And that is THE FUN of motorsports, not needing 5 laps to overtake someone and doing it because of DRS xd
As fans of the sport we should want all the teams to do well so the competition is great. As a Merc supporter, I hope everyone else DNFs so we can finally get a bloody win this season lol
@@bipolarminddroppings if Merc need everyone else to DNF to win, they don't deserve that win. Jokes apart, Merc may get a win at Singapore or maybe at Mexico. Who knows Russell may get it done.
The beginning of the season was so much more exciting with Max and Charles battling. As much as Im loving seeing Max take his second WC, I’d also like to see some battles out front lol
I don't know why but I have a feeling Ferrari might actually show up this weekend. Of course it is a home race, but it seems like whenever you expect Ferrari to do well, they bottle it. And when you expect them to not even be in the fight, they put in a decent run. And everyone is expecting Max to run away with it at Monza.
The old Hockenheim would have been pointless for DRS too. The same narrow wings would appear there in my memories from my early days watching F1, and the last 4 years of that layout.
I'll speak up for the broadcasters on the wind issue. It's my first year watching and they definitely made it clear (to my memory) how big a factor wind has been at certain sectors of several tracks this year.
For everyone wanting to get rid of DRS in F1, just look at DRS trains. This is what racing without a DRS system would be because no one would be able to pass.
The low downforce setup not only reduces the drs effectiveness but also the dirty air the cars leave behind making following through the corner easier and not need the drs as much since the drs was to balance the disadvantage of having dirty air of the front car so that balances things out
My question is even, will the be a rearwingless test this year? The new floors make more downforce the faster it goes so the speedy corners should be able to be done at full speed
In other words, this is why DRS is not going away any time soon. If you can't overtake at Monza with minimum DRS effect and one of the longest straights followed by one of the biggest braking zone, you won't be able to overtake anywhere else without DRS.
@3:05 would love to say Charles, but with Binotto still at tp, wouldn't think so. One way or another they're gonna effed it up and will say to their drivers to just deal with it.
I'm torn about this weekend. I want Ferrari to do well, but I also wanna see Max try and break the consecutive wins record (9 wins by Vettel). Considering how absolutely dominant Max has been this season, it feels like a great time to try. I guess I'm hoping for a Max 1 Ferrari 2 &3 podium this weekend then
So what you are saying is that we should install a giant fan at the end of the straight in the chicane so that there's more wind on that straight? Maybe even change the straight into a tunnel, so that you can have that extreme wind tunnel effect. All for better overtakes, of course.
No one wants to see an overly dominant team, but tbh I think it would be really cool to see max break the records for the most consecutive wins and the most wins in a season in the same season
Hopefully the current cars will follow better through some of the high speed corners leading to those straights too. I'd love to predict a Merc win or something but I think more of the same from the last few months.
I wish that Variante Rettifilo chicken was a right and left split chicane. If you were side by side down the front straight with a competitor, you should choose the opposite side to try and make a pass.
You also forgot to mention that all the turns are chicanes. It's very hard to overtake on then, because the track narrows down, and the inside becomes the outside
Idea for replacing DRS: A mandated push to pass button which is always gives X percent more horsepower. Teams can decide themselves if they want the baseline tune to be more or less conservative. If they're more conservative then the push to pass mode can be run for a long time but the regular mode becomes a bit useless. If the baseline tune is already pretty on the limit then you want to limit your use of push to pass when it is strictly necessary. During qualifying they always run this mode which is then fixed for the entire weekend. I think this reduces the gimmick factor since the teams are back in control of when they apply it and it provides a tradeoff between the possibility of grenading your engine or having an easier time overtaking. What do you guys think?
A potential counter-point is why qualifying sessions in recent years at Monza have become a bit of a joke... If cars generate less drag, that should create less dirty air & less of a slipstream tow... However we know that's not the case at Monza. It should help serve a fascinating race, even if the logic doubles-back on itself throughout the weekend (Also, fair play Ferrari for painting their engine covers yellow to camouflage when it inevitably catches fire)
Short explaination of DRS train, locomotive is .5 second faster without DRS, following wagons are as fast but with DRS, things equalize themselves and no passing. That is a DRS train.
This actually misses the most important historical reason overtaking was a challenge. Gearing. F1 cars run too short of gears at Monza because this is the only track that would benefit, but others have better traction and acceleration using shorter gears elsewhere, so the top speed limitation at this track in particular is not aerodynamic, but mechanical. As the top speed has nothing to do with the aerodynamica of the car (or dramatically less so), decreasing the drag of the package doesn't help overcome the literal limitations that the cars are running peak rpm at 8th gear and just are not allowed to run faster due to engine/transmission damage risks. Toto has come flat out and said it that they could go a lot faster at Monza, but then they would suffer everywhere else, and this is also why Monza of all tracks shows the least progress from the 80/90s cars.
The solution is for F1 to come a kitcar series, like Australia's V8 supercars. Not a one make series but the cars sharing alot of common parts. In the V8 suupercars thier ran the same chassis, rollcage and gearbox but run different bodywork and motor. Even thou V8 supercars only as twoo makes it's not limited to two makes.
Good looking forward to them working more for an overtake rather than drive-bys on the straights. It'll force them to take more exciting opportunities. Ban DRS at some tracks I think.
The explanation of how a headwind affects DRS in the video is the opposite of what commentator Alex Brundle said during the F2 sprint race at Zandvoort this past weekend. He said the headwind _reduced_ the effectiveness of DRS not increased it. Is someone wrong or does the nature of the headwind wind and other factors mean the wind's effect on DRS can go either way depending on the circumstances?
I’m pretty sure what WTF1 said is true, maybe some exceptions? But you can think of it like they are going 300k two cars if there’s a 60k head wind that’s like another 60k on top. So upending the wing would have a huge effect, essentially the fast your going the bigger the effect. Does that make sense? I could be totally wrong but makes sense in my head.
What about the Gear Ratio? ⚙⚙⚙ At Monza you often see them hitting the limiter way before the end of the straight. Especially when slipstreaming. Or is this something they can't change overnight?
the gearboxes are governed by max and minimum gear ratios, and can not be changed without making a new spec gearbox, and thus requiring to run that one as well including the penalty that comes with it. overall i think they'd rather the rev limiter over 5+ grid drop and loads of time for making that different gearbox, if they even can in the first place.
I havent watched to video, so I'm gonna shoot my shot for an explanation: Everyone is driving Monza packages anyway that reduce drag as much as possible. When you almost have no rear wing, you don't gain much by reducing even more.
Considering how important top speed is at Monza, and how fast the Red Bull is in a straight line I think we wil lhave to use a calender to measure Max's winning margin this week.
I have a sneaky feeling alonso is going to create a drs train of 7 cars then pit for hards then get podium finish while ferrari amps up their power for the home race and the blow up or bottle it in the first chicane and max does a zandervoort and finishes the race 50 minutes ahead of everyone because he's a Lewis Hamilton in Brazil last year and is a maniac for speed and a champion and then albon does a jet flyby and buzzes the tower to score some topgun points in his f-14 tomcat and then suddenly comes George with the struggling car to third while lando has his own race with vettel doing his own thing and we all cheer on vettel and expect mick to do something amazing so we keep him next year and watch Daniel in 17th place sadly :( that's how I think this race will go or a red flag because Yuki gets ahead of himself bless him. Tell me what yall think😂
If Max's car doesn't go wrong he wins far and away. I think the real question is, 'What new Ferrari blunder will happen this weekend?'.. I so can't wait for the end of the year compilation of this ridiculousness.
hold that thought. t1 could get messy, knowing how hard it is to pass, the best chance of overtakes is t1 immediately try to grab 2 slots and you'll have 8 or 10 cars on cold tires trying to jam a nose in there, so anyone hanging back and those with new pu's will benefit
If I was a team like Mclaren I'd overclock the engine by 5% for qually/race and go for it. I'd rather fight for a podium 1 week and start from the back of the grid the next week. I have a feeling that all Merc powered teams might struggle to make q3. Well Merc might make it but I think it'll be closer than usual. Max will win this race by 45 seconds if there's no safety cars and he doesn't slow down toward the end to minimize risks. Lack of straight line speed has to be the most frustrating thing. Makes overtakes, even with drs open, near impossible.
Isn't it because the gearbox ratios are fixed at the beginning of the year and cars will be running close to max rpms at Monza, so reducing drag doesn't mean the car can go any faster as the engine cannot do more rpms.
Can't wait to see what ferrari pulls off this weekend.

It should help serve a fascinating race, even if the logic doubles-back on itself throughout the weekend (Also, fair play Ferrari for painting their engine covers yellow to camouflage when it inevitably catches fire)
what i always love is how the engines go to the highest rpm of the year
Could this be big weekend for Williams and Albon???
The last 2 years were both absolute carnage, so you never know
When you said there is one more problem and it's invisible, I thought you were gonna say Latifi😜
Short explaination of DRS train, locomotive is .5 second faster without DRS, following wagons are as fast but with DRS, things equalize themselves and no passing. That is a DRS train.
Cuz teams already running low wing, saved you 3 minutes
Albon Q3 in Monza 2022. Come back to this when it happens.
So what you're saying is, if they carry the same setup as Spa, is _Williams have a chance?_
This actually misses the most important historical reason overtaking was a challenge. Gearing. F1 cars run too short of gears at Monza because this is the only track that would benefit, but others have better traction and acceleration using shorter gears elsewhere, so the top speed limitation at this track in particular is not aerodynamic, but mechanical. As the top speed has nothing to do with the aerodynamica of the car (or dramatically less so), decreasing the drag of the package doesn't help overcome the literal limitations that the cars are running peak rpm at 8th gear and just are not allowed to run faster due to engine/transmission damage risks.
Toto has come flat out and said it that they could go a lot faster at Monza, but then they would suffer everywhere else, and this is also why Monza of all tracks shows the least progress from the 80/90s cars.
let's go lewis hamilton
Here are my predictions for the top 3, Max Perez and Gasly. That Honda engine is a rocketship.
The solution is for F1 to come a kitcar series, like Australia's V8 supercars. Not a one make series but the cars sharing alot of common parts. In the V8 suupercars thier ran the same chassis, rollcage and gearbox but run different bodywork and motor. Even thou V8 supercars only as twoo makes it's not limited to two makes.
For DRS to work at Monza, you’d have run it through Curve Grande, right up to the second chicane.
Good looking forward to them working more for an overtake rather than drive-bys on the straights. It'll force them to take more exciting opportunities. Ban DRS at some tracks I think.
Let's be honest. Ricciardo won at Monza because they told Norris to stay behind him.
The explanation of how a headwind affects DRS in the video is the opposite of what commentator Alex Brundle said during the F2 sprint race at Zandvoort this past weekend. He said the headwind _reduced_ the effectiveness of DRS not increased it. Is someone wrong or does the nature of the headwind wind and other factors mean the wind's effect on DRS can go either way depending on the circumstances?
I’m pretty sure what WTF1 said is true, maybe some exceptions? But you can think of it like they are going 300k two cars if there’s a 60k head wind that’s like another 60k on top. So upending the wing would have a huge effect, essentially the fast your going the bigger the effect. Does that make sense? I could be totally wrong but makes sense in my head.
The red bull just isn't going to use a rear wing in Monza
Why don't the enable drs in the straight after ascari given that these new generation cars have lesser slipstreaming effect
What about the Gear Ratio? ⚙⚙⚙
At Monza you often see them hitting the limiter way before the end of the straight. Especially when slipstreaming.
Or is this something they can't change overnight?
Teams cannot change the gear ratio every race. So they'll have to find a compromise that works on all circuits
the gearboxes are governed by max and minimum gear ratios, and can not be changed without making a new spec gearbox, and thus requiring to run that one as well including the penalty that comes with it. overall i think they'd rather the rev limiter over 5+ grid drop and loads of time for making that different gearbox, if they even can in the first place.
I havent watched to video, so I'm gonna shoot my shot for an explanation:
Everyone is driving Monza packages anyway that reduce drag as much as possible. When you almost have no rear wing, you don't gain much by reducing even more.
No mention of the chicanes that negate the large braking zones???
This weekend feels like a RB 1-2
Hmmm… after seeing RB rear wing in FP1 and FP2, I think that DRS definitely will make a huge difference for them.
Feels like you meant to say more about how the wind typically acts at Monza than you did
The only way Max doesn't win at Monza is if someone takes him out in the same way he took out himself and Lewis at Monza last year.
I am not a Ferrari fan, but I do hope they get their act together this weekend and at least put up a good fight.
Considering how important top speed is at Monza, and how fast the Red Bull is in a straight line I think we wil lhave to use a calender to measure Max's winning margin this week.
I have a sneaky feeling alonso is going to create a drs train of 7 cars then pit for hards then get podium finish while ferrari amps up their power for the home race and the blow up or bottle it in the first chicane and max does a zandervoort and finishes the race 50 minutes ahead of everyone because he's a Lewis Hamilton in Brazil last year and is a maniac for speed and a champion and then albon does a jet flyby and buzzes the tower to score some topgun points in his f-14 tomcat and then suddenly comes George with the struggling car to third while lando has his own race with vettel doing his own thing and we all cheer on vettel and expect mick to do something amazing so we keep him next year and watch Daniel in 17th place sadly :( that's how I think this race will go or a red flag because Yuki gets ahead of himself bless him. Tell me what yall think😂
Williams is ready! Top 10 finish coming!
And Latifi will probably still come last.
Spicy headwind FTW!
I cannot imagine how many overtakes we will see in Interlagos. Where DRS makes a 15-20 kph difference.
Not gonna lie we could do a whole episode about wind and what it does in F1
I suppose they could regulate a higher minimum rear wing size to make the DRS here stronger
Waiting for 19 car DRS train while Max wins by lapping everyone.
Can’t wait to see what Mercedes pulls off this weekend
I’ve been to silvers one so I know what Mercedes can be
I'm looking forward to the Albon DRS train.
Let's be real matt, that is why we're here for this video
Actually DRS did help last weekend. Apart from in overtaking Williams :)
If max doesn’t win this weekend in a car 10-15mph faster than the next fastest then that’s just embarrassing for red bull
Did a Ferrari team member hack your account to write that comment?
😂😂
Speed and quickness aren't the same thing; in some races this year, the fastest cars were backmarkers.
@@aishwarygaonkar2601 He`s ur average hamilton fan 🤣
@@basr-i9c yes got that from his comment
If Max's car doesn't go wrong he wins far and away. I think the real question is, 'What new Ferrari blunder will happen this weekend?'.. I so can't wait for the end of the year compilation of this ridiculousness.
George Russell for the win!!! Leclerc 2nd and Latifi 3rd. I can't imagine the atrocities that would occur for that to become a reality 😂😂😂
hold that thought. t1 could get messy, knowing how hard it is to pass, the best chance of overtakes is t1 immediately try to grab 2 slots and you'll have 8 or 10 cars on cold tires trying to jam a nose in there, so anyone hanging back and those with new pu's will benefit
do you own any of those videos? if not how did you get all those permissions to use them?
And yet we still got a drs train on sunday, which is probably why dre vries managed to score on his debut
If I was a team like Mclaren I'd overclock the engine by 5% for qually/race and go for it. I'd rather fight for a podium 1 week and start from the back of the grid the next week. I have a feeling that all Merc powered teams might struggle to make q3. Well Merc might make it but I think it'll be closer than usual. Max will win this race by 45 seconds if there's no safety cars and he doesn't slow down toward the end to minimize risks. Lack of straight line speed has to be the most frustrating thing. Makes overtakes, even with drs open, near impossible.
Isn't it because the gearbox ratios are fixed at the beginning of the year and cars will be running close to max rpms at Monza, so reducing drag doesn't mean the car can go any faster as the engine cannot do more rpms.
Mercedes: Manages to get a good race at Zandvoort and then... Monza
Not if u r a red bull with that top speed
Me when my drag reduction system doesn’t reduce my drag:
Max is boutta run laps around the competition 😭😂
maybe with the old cars, im sure the race will be entertaining with the new ones
