George Russell struggled again in a low-speed heavy circuit, just like in Miami, where Kimi Antonelli is on another level so far. With a lot of points taken away due to bad luck, and Kimi's pure speed on the W17, is the title charge out of reach now? My analysis👇

Leclerc sta combattendo con la frenata della SF-26, questo gli costa anche un uscita di curva.
Una questione di feeling con le impostazioni, anche la gestione delle temp incide: “L’auto cambia ogni volta”. Perdeva 1,5 decimi da Hamilton e 3 da Kimi

@michaelmasinot@GiulyDuchessa This is an article from late '25 explaining all of that situation: https://t.co/NDKXp6UygC
Personally I feel like the two analysis align quite well together to give a good picture of the lineup. Also, keep in mind that part of Kimi's struggles were experience-related.
@michaelmasinot@GiulyDuchessa I think you're mixing things up here. Last year's suspension made things difficult in corner entry: Antonelli relies on that phase to make up time, as seen in Miami and even in late 2025. On the other side, Russell's style and experience allowed him to manage things better in '25
Russell's struggles were apparent in Miami: compared to Antonelli, there is a clear delta in the ability to rotate the car at low speeds. High temps, low grip and smooth surfaces highlight this trend. What's real and what isn't in George's dip in form? More on @Auto_Racer_it 👇
Antonelli sta facendo una differenza nel lento su Russell ma oggi sarà una sfida completamente diversa. Torna davanti anche Verstappen, la Ferrari ha sofferto un po’ il vento contrario nel finale di Q3, più di RBR, ed è sempre una questione di potenza

Cadillac started as the worst team on the grid, but showed good improvement in the first three races. The crucial factor will be development: the MAC-26 will be fitted with a new floor (among other components) and will weigh less than the base version. More @Auto_Racer_it 👇🇮🇹
McLaren was slow out of the gate compared to Mercedes and Ferrari, but in Suzuka steps were made. Next week, the MCL40 will undergo big changes - as will all of their close rivals. The expected gains from the package should be around four tenths. More on @Auto_Racer_it
La Ferrari svolto a Monza i 200 km, tutto bene.
L’ala reverse Macarena funziona, sarà a Miami, c’era bisogno di ridisegnare anche i piloni.
