This is probably crazy thinking because of lack of information, but I can't help but wonder if Ferrari are benefitting in any way from the engine developments they got in trouble for a couple years back. Did they learn something that they were able to further develop and apply this year? They've done a lot of work all around to make their package better down and around the track, but they do seem to be the power class-of-the-field now. Even though I'm not a huge Ferrari fan, I'm enjoying it immensely. It's a exciting team to watch. (And no more moping around for the Tifosi.) Whatever they did, I hope they keep it going. Race weekends are way more fun when we don't know who are crossing the finish line first!

The Ferrari power unit has a distinct tone change on a push lap that the others don’t have. They sound the same as the others until on a push lap where the noise level becomes higher and much more aggressive. All three teams had this noise but the factory team was using it more than the other two.

@peterwindsor Hey fellas big fan of both of yours. At roughly 2:50 on the video you asked what accounts for that incredible bump in performance in in the engine.

You may have noticed their brand on the sleeves, of the boys Carlos and Charles. Palantir has been with the team for around 3 years, which is roughly the amount of time it takes for their enterprise and micro level data flow data structuring AI called Gotham really goes online. Its incredibly complex and I am by no means an expert. But this is not a coincidence by any stretch. You mix that in with a data driven former power train engineer as a team principle, who was probably involved in bringing PLTR in the first place and you cant forget magic Charles and the consistent rock Carlos to boot. They look amazing. Hope it goes to the end though

There hasn't been a single track were RB have outpaced Ferrari, they have at best managed to give them a race and for the most part that's debatable. They have managed to win one race out of 3 via the smallest margin possible and aided by favourable safety car interventions. Make no mistake that currently Ferrari are quicker and by a decent margin. RB have reliability issues and a weight issue which will eat into their budget cap (Ferrari also need to lose weight but then they have more wind tunnel and CFD). The development race that many are anticipating is going to be far less impactful for the chasing pack than many think, simply put they will not be able to through money at it like in the past.

I sincerely hope the Brit media (you two included) diesnt get even close the crossing the line of raising suspicion about Ferrari early dominance The fact that you dont know how they have managed to start ahead does not mean they have tricks Please stay away from "wondering" what they have done That would be shamefull if you did

Well, brits did not expect Ferrari to be so strong and they believed that Ferrari was strong only in testing. Wrong assumption, because they had the most mileage in testing. Nobody talked about superfast ignition system before except Ferrari. They cannot talk about side pods because they are not sure how it works. Ferrari so far is the best Grand Prix car.

Do Ferrari have a recent history of being cheats ?

I still say give them skirts, or ban the ground FX for good. Even the Ferrari verticl oscillation is horrendous. I thought 1998 was a shock, this is the worse reg change since. Cars look sluggish. Ferrari just has the best out of all of this crappy car. Until they get the groud FX, ride height either back to modern, or nix a 40 yr old blunder, I as many others are not fans of this spec'd car. I will watch less. They tried to fix oscillation and had hopes with the skirts in 1977-1979, was brilliant. But nixed them as we know, in 1980. So it seams like trying to wake up a dead horse and hope there is a solution. Given the problems, its the same as before sliding skirts... 18" wheels? Why? Ot causes visibility issues as suspected. I know I sound like a negative influence, my subjectivity is my own. I hope all of this changes rapidly. It took several years to accept the nasty sound of turbo charged [more expensive] engines. The scream of NA V10's is sorely missed. Took awhile to accept the change in 2014

Even if i agree with you about V10s engine, one thing you say is completely wrong - sluggish.... the Cars look much more agile than the 2021/2020/2019 cars. These were the most sluggish cars ever! Even if they were the fastest cars ever, they looked that slow and sluggish and todays cars look much more agile and faster without any doubt! And the other thing is - there is nobody who does not like this cars. Its much better than the boring cars and races of recent years...

@@fam.hunger5244 In fact, I started watching Super Formula which is more action packed. Not as fast, but perform like a proper formula car. Wheels are of proper size. When and if F1 gets rid of ground FX, I may watch again. But ocillation/porposing is a problem of the past, why Ross brought it back without sliding skirts is beyond me!! If you watch a race from 1979, you will see skirted ground FX cars that race proper. The skirts keep the air in, by which ride height can come back down. Though they are huge with grip, the speed and momentum got scary, so they banned it. Without skirts, the oscillation porposing will not stop. Its a bad call by Ross B. in my opinion. I think Mercedes would agree with me. I know Lewis a nd George do. Innovation is great, when it heads in the right direction. FIA are moving backwards, as a result, the liability to enhance a turd regulation is a never ending uphill battle. he hope to kill slipstream noise, but all the over weight issues are fighting against it. Enjoy it if you like. My opinion is my own. Untill they come back to modern designs, I wont pay to watch it on TV

Immense engine power and significantly down on top speed and having similar acceleration numbers as the overweight redbull. No the Ferrari engine is competitive unlike the previous 2 years but there is no evidence that it is the sole reason of their success. Honestly I am much more impressed on how the car performs on any corner type. The balance the tyre life and performance it unlocks and the ease of setup every weekend is mind boggling for a complete new type of car. They just got everything right at the start.

Nope. Ferrari was using a loophole in the rules in 2019 (as Mercedes that used loopholes for 8 consecutive years). When Red Bull asked a rule clarification to FIA, FIA further stricted that rule upon fluxometer and Ferrari stopped to use that loophole. That's not cheating. If Ferrari would have continued to use that loophole it would have been cheating, but they didn't. FIA checked, deemed legal and sealed until 2026 all this year ICE, so there's no way someone is cheating now.
