#F1 | #FP3 5 °C warmer than FP2. Track temps currently at 17 °C, the warmest it's been all weekend. Still very low humidity. Temps should be around where they were in FP1 for Qualifying. #LasVegasGP

#F1 | According to Giuliano Duchessa and #Autoracer at least 8 teams had to make changes to conform to the new technical directive regarding plank satellite skids. Red Bull included.
The teams were informed 6 days before the start of the #LasVegasGP.

Hefty tow for Sainz on his fast lap into turn 14. Almost a 2 tenth gain. All in all, both drivers are pretty close in qualifying trim. I'd say Charles doesn't look particularly comfortable either.
Saturday, as we've become accustom to, will be the more challenging session.

Speed trap and finish line speeds still down for Ferrari. I expect a change to a lower downforce wing for #FP2
The speed trap is at the end of the long straight before turn 14. We're right at the bottom of the leaderboard. Merc, McLaren & Red Bull all at the top.

#F1 | Weather forecast ahead of FP1. #LaVegasGP
12 °C ambient temps, relatively low humidity @ 24% which lowers the temperature felt to 9 °C. Not much wind around, either. No chance of rain for the entire weekend.

#F1 | Current vs '25 experimental floor edge #LasVegasGP
Edge wing closer to what we see on other cars. Sizeable SG entry for the rear corner. Imagine it reduces the RH sensitivity of the FE. The downwashing ramp before the SG is aggressive, possibly entrain the surrounding air into the SG.

#F1 | Ultra low downforce for the SF-24 in #LasVegasGP
short corners, long straights = monza downforce levels. The asphalt grip index is as low as 1 (1-5). Often, you'll see some teams give the drivers more downforce during the greenest phases of the circuit to inspire some confidence.

➡️Loïc Serra is fully devoted to the 2026 project. An early model of the next gen car is already in the wind tunnel. He will not be present at the circuit this year given his commitment to the '26 car.

➡️Ferrari are making major changes for the '25 season. A lot of changes at the front of the car, one of which is already known to be a move to front pull rod suspension. Pull rod rear will remain. This is an evaluation for 2026 & excluding any anomalies, it is likely to carry over.

#F1 | Ferrari will have an experimental floor during Friday's free practice sessions at the #LasVegasGP
The plan is to see how things on the '25 car correlate on track. Both drivers will have the opportunity to test it.

Very crucial weekend ahead for Ferrari. Favourable circuit in unfavourable conditions. Are they on top of the tyre warm up issues?
Other very interesting story lines to unfold during the build up to the weekend.
