The simulation tools are currently outdated and being replaced by a new simulator this summer, I think this was also a factor.
Generally last year too the sprint weekends were worse than the normal weekends.
I'm not so sure, the gap from Ferrari (which hasn't brought any updates) is currently unchanged.diffuser wrote: ↑06 May 2024, 21:47I'M not sure what all the panic is about. The upgrades in Japan worked. I remember last year in Miami , there was no Sprint and they got the setup right only on the Saturday. It was tough for them to set it up for Miami, not sure why.xReVo wrote: ↑06 May 2024, 21:13If it goes badly in Imola, in my opinion there will be repercussions within the teamPinkFloydPulse wrote: ↑06 May 2024, 21:05If Imola ends up a bust, they are lost for this year for sure...

Ooooof Imola. Lots of low speed corners, no passing opportunities. This would have been great circuit last year when we had a ton of low end traction. It will definitely prove if they've improved low speed traction.
They should go after Jonathan Wheatley who is interested in becoming a TP according to recent reports.
Fallows, Blandin, Furbatto or Alessi were all signed before Krack joined to be honest.
Let's not be mistaken: it's Stroll Sr. who is signing all the people.AR3-GP wrote: ↑07 May 2024, 16:47Wheatley would be a good signing for Aston Martin, but I struggle to see how this falls on Krack. He actually recruited a lot of good people to their organization unlike Mercedes who lost tons of important engineers under their team principal’s watch.
Also, there is only going to be so much a team can do with Stroll as a driver. They might be level on points with Mercedes with a different driver in that seat. Not Krack’s fault.
So Krack has no power? Why would Wheatley want such a position?Joseki wrote: ↑07 May 2024, 19:37Let's not be mistaken: it's Stroll Sr. who is signing all the people.AR3-GP wrote: ↑07 May 2024, 16:47Wheatley would be a good signing for Aston Martin, but I struggle to see how this falls on Krack.
