As soon as Isack parks it in the pitlane the marshal waves the yellow at pit entry.
George was in front of Charles and there was no yellow flag.
Charles arrives and there's a yellow flag.
Lewis arrives and there's no yellow flag.
Typical Charles luck.
charles said he found the issue after fp3 and fixed it:
"it's been a more complicated weekend for you in terms of finding the right balance and managing the energy deployment. then at one point things seemed to click in q2, can we say that?"
🆑: it was much more complicated than that, unfortunately. we had some issues on my side yesterday, especially in fp3, where they got much worse. we found something and changed it before qualifying. but this time it wasn't anything to do with my driving. of course, you can always drive better, and with these cars it's always difficult, especially with the throttle. you have to get on it as late as possible, particularly at a track like this, so there's always some fine-tuning to do with the driving. yes, there was a specific issue that we managed to fix, because the gap was simply too big before.
Ottimo lavoro di Charles, di più non si poteva. Gialla a parte. Ma lui non ha il passaporto inglese quindi ha fatto bene ad alzare, dopotutto con lui 5 sec di penalità si trasformano con niente in 20. Lato positivo una qualifica in meno con questo regolamento abominevole
questa cosa della yellow è controversa. #Leclerc fa una minima più lenta nella seconda di bus stop, -6 che è tanto, ma poi apre il gas anche meglio del giro precedente (bianco). Secondo me ha perso la posizione da #Russell che è a 0.030 #BelgianGP
Bro got lucky once at Silverstone, and the bad luck is already back 😂😂
Charles was the only driver to encounter the yellow flag in the last corner, a yellow that was shown by mistake, since Hadjar had been given permission by the FIA to park in the pit lane!

Haha they are happy about the small gap with teammate?
Come on bc that inappropriate yellow flag Charles had to slow and actually maybe give a tow
Otherwise 🤌
Charles : « On s’attendait à ce que ce soit compliqué pour nous. J’étais assez énervé à la fin de mon tour, car il y a un drapeau jaune dans le dernier virage. Le commissaire était au milieu de la pit lane, donc j’ai cru que c’était un drapeau jaune pour le dernier virage. Du coup, j’ai relâché. Je ne pense pas qu’on aurait fait P2, mais je pense que P4 (P3), ça aurait été possible. Mais bon, c’est comme ça. »

However, it seems Lewis's car doesn't have this issue—one that Leclerc has been dealing with since the start of the season. Whatever the problem is, it prevents power from being delivered effectively, causing Leclerc to lose a tremendous amount of time when trying to set a fast lap.
📻 Bryan : « So now, losing a tenth (with a a big tow). »
📻 Charles : « There's something wrong. I cannot be closer to a car. It's impossible. »
📻 Bryan : « And Box Charles. »

📻 Bryan : « Lewis's first lap time was a 47.5. you did a 47.89. Main loss was Turn 3 to turn 5. And deployment, 2 tenths. We're reviewing. »

I've lost track honestly but the components have always failed more on his side for now 8 years lol
The quality control is really bad but whatever who cares.
IM GOING TO SPA so it’s that time again where I humbly beg @ScuderiaFerrari@F1 to let me meet @Charles_Leclerc and congratulate him on his win and give him the holy water I got from the Vatican 🙏
È proprio per questo che non farò mai pace con questo regolamento, premia chi gestisce con prudenza, limitandosi a fare il compitino e penalizza chi spinge davvero al limite e si prende dei rischi. Un regolamento da nonnette, in cui la skill più importante è non avere skill
