Max Verstappen was again the driver closest to Mercedes at the Silverstone circuit. In one lap, however, he was far too slow to challenge them and that's why third place on the grid was the best he could do.
"The lap itself was good in the end, but you could see early in qualifying that they were way too fast. Just like the last races. You just have to accept that. After Hungary, a third place is a good starting point. I think we are a bit closer in the race. At least I'm going to fight!
"With these new cars of the last few years, the wind has a lot of influence. Because we have so much wing and the cars are so wide, but compared to yesterday it was a lot better."
Verstappen: "You saw right away that Mercedes is way too fast here"
Nonsense.
You are slower today than you were last year.
You are a liar.
Mercedes is not too fast. They are doing their normal Job.
You and Ferrari were both cheating ion your engine last year. That is the main reason why you are slow this year.
Shut up and do a better Job.
Very disappointing.If this sport is only for teams and FIA to watch then its fine and none of us care.If its really for fans then this is disgusting.Dominance at this level doesnt even create any interest to watch.FIA is totally bullshit.Rules alos sucks.everything freezed.Teams too suck who agreed on freeze in name of cost cuts which is totally baseless.
Not only Ferrari, Honda and RedBull also.
Both are slower this year than last year.
it starts to get boring no driver capability only machine capability. that is why I like to see MotoGP more than F1 because the result is known in f1
You must ask the other teams why they are slower this year than last year
Looks like a handicap race we are having this year. One team with an actual F1 car, 5 teams running F2 cars and 4 teams racing in GP3 spec cars! The variations then is because of the drivers ability behind the wheel of each car.
Perfect, because from the figures 9n engine performance from the last three races snd by today's evidence,
RedBull and Ferrari are slower today than tgey were last year.
Honda was also cheating on their engine.
No wonder both are slower than they were last year.
