Pura humildad por parte de Kimi Antonelli ❤
El líder del campeonato explica por qué las comparaciones con su ídolo, la leyenda de la F1 Ayrton Senna, simplemente no son justas.

💔 Fernando Alonso: "Probablemente esta sea mi ÚLTIMA carrera en Barcelona"
👉 "No tengo nada en mente. Después del verano tomaré la decisión de si continuo o no".
👉 "No me afecta si es la última o no. Lo más duro es no ganar carreras y no ser competitivo".
👉 "Quiero dar las gracias a todo el mundo. Intentaré disfrutar el fin de semana".

🚨 La FIA, FOM y Ecclestone recurren ante el Tribunal Supremo tras ser condenados a pagar 250.000 libras esterlinas por el 'crashgate'
👉 El tribunal dictaminó que Massa podía reclamar los daños y perjuicios derivados de la controversia, pero rechazó su demanda de que se declarara que debería haber ganado el título de pilotos de 2008.

🚨 Alpine has secured an official right of review hearing over Pierre Gasly's speeding penalties from the Monaco GP. #F1
Fascinating line in document detailing new evidence...
"FOM, as Official Timekeeping Supplier to the Competition, provided evidence that the distance
used in calculating the F1 Official Timing (and hence the pit lane speed) was inaccurate and overestimated the speed of Car 10."
🏴 1988 McLaren Test
🇧🇷 Ayrton Senna - McLaren MP4/4
In September 1988, Ayrton Senna traveled to the Pembrey Circuit in Carmarthenshire, Wales, to conduct a secret test for the McLaren team.
Driving a modified version of the legendary McLaren MP4/4, Senna unofficially shattered the track record with a lap time of 44.43 seconds
The McLaren team, accompanied by about 60 Honda and McLaren crew members, secretly camped out under awning tents on the redundant runways of the old airfield circuit.
Senna tested a development chassis to prepare for the 1989 season, as the highly successful turbo-engine era was coming to a close and normally-aspirated engines were being introduced.
Blistering the 1.5-mile track at speeds reaching approximately 120 mph, Senna broke the circuit record previously held by his Brazilian compatriot and McLaren test driver, Maurício Gugelmin.
Not sure what Maurício Gugelmin would make of his last name being slaughtered. 😇🤣

1991 Japanese GP.
The 2nd-placed G. Berger, who was having an excellent weekend & was only 3s behind Senna, began to experience mechanical problems (probably exhaust), wandering around the track like a wounded animal letting out a sad, lamenting cry from its V12 eng.

New #F1 PU regulations: ~1100hp in 2028! 🤩
-Increased ICE power (+20 kW in '27, +50 kW in '28) via higher fuel flow
-Decreased ERS power (-50 kW), but NOT in overtake mode (which gets STRONGER, increasing power vs Std.)
-Increased harvesting power: same energy harvested in less time
Consequences:
-LESS total power (-30 kW) in '27, back to baseline in '28
-MORE total power in overtake mode: 800 kW in '28 (~1090 hp), exceeding 1100 hp through PU development!
-ICE power share rises to 60% (up from 53% today) → less clipping (the +400 kW harvesting power will help too)
Net result: higher performance and top speeds, less clipping. Not a massive shift, but one that satisfied manufacturers!

Charles Leclerc has switched from Brembo to Carbone Industrie brake elements this weekend in Barcelona 👀
The Ferrari driver was fuming after a brake issue saw him crash out of his home Grand Prix making him "look like an idiot" last week in Monaco.

🚨| ADUO system explained: Why dominant Mercedes still qualifies for concessions?
— The Additional Development and Upgrade Opportunities (ADUO) system is designed to manage power unit performance under F1's 2026 rules. It allows manufacturers lagging behind the leading engine to receive development opportunities to close the performance gap.
— Red Bull Powertrains has been identified as the top engine, prompting Mercedes, Ferrari, Audi, and Honda to receive ADUO assistance. Mercedes is two percent behind, earning one upgrade, while Ferrari, Audi, and Honda are four percent behind, qualifying for more upgrades.
— ADUO tokens can be used on various power unit components, such as the Internal Combustion Engine, turbocharger, and Control Electronics. Each manufacturer decides how to allocate their tokens, with cost cap adjustments reflecting these upgrades.
— The FIA has not disclosed its criteria for determining engine performance to prevent manufacturers from manipulating the system. This secrecy aims to ensure fair competition and genuine performance improvements.
— Mercedes HPP will receive a $3 million budget increase, while Audi, Ferrari, and Honda will get up to $4.65 million to support their development efforts under the ADUO system.
— The ADUO system does not allow for stockpiling of upgrade tokens, with specific windows for upgrades planned after the Hungarian and Mexico City GPs, impacting the 2027 season.
— The focus of ADUO is solely on the Internal Combustion Engine, which explains why Red Bull's engine is rated highest despite Mercedes' overall season dominance.
