[Bubbles]

Ferrari

PU: impressive power unit, likely best in class at the moment. They ran detuned in Bahrain but in the final 10 laps in Saudi LeClerc switched the PU into the top two power deployment modes to keep up with Max.

Interestingly, Sainz experienced clipping during the race.

AERO:Aero improvement will bring massive top speed bump, likely to occur by Imola. Huge upside here.

Red Bull

PU: On par or slightly behind Ferrari. Battery deployment seems off at the moment for reliability and performance. Max had clipping during the race. Ferrari is well ahead in low and mid speed acceleration. They have a few months to improve here before the window closes.

AERO: Aero is top class at the moment and will continue to improve for mid and low speed.

BRAKES: Cooling remains a problem with high temps, Max suffered with this issue during the race.

Merc

PU: running in detuned mode until aero is sorted, Russell showed decent pace, see graph for a Max v Rus comparison. First sector Max had DRS. Merc has a decent PU that has yet to be run full beans due to handling issues.

AERO: Major work required here, suspension geometry must be improved.
