What did you say the strategy was?

I increasingly dislike parts limit penalties from the perspective of “all the teams will eventually take an extra engine or two” - the limits should adjust up if it’s getting to that point.

That said, uh, usually I don’t have to belabor this point by race 2. Thanks scud

Leclerc has gone through the same number of ECUs as sets of tires. I approve.

Yup, it's their Business 2 Business "initiative" so they can still invite guests to races and discuss how to bribe politicians or something.

Thinking about how Ferrari can't make a stock ECU not burn up but Ducati will do weird poo poo like put intermediary false sensors on top of the lovely homologated MotoGP sensors to put in the input they want lol

Ducati is the absolute leader of aerodynamics, horsepower and electronics in MotoGP. They very heavily preference local italian talent when hiring



Ferrari's issue is that they are not hiring enough local Italians and are instead hiring Britains with neurological disorders caused by drinking raw sewage and eating prion laced beef.

Looks like those McLaren ECUs function fine in other cars, OP. There must be tomato sauce getting into the connectors somehow.

Nice try OP but the real answer is that there probably is some dipshit british electrical engineer who can't integrate the stupid british ECU with the advanced Italian Electronics and is too busy putting in a hazard light switch that you have to insert upside down to start the engine.

I would definitely trust my electronics to engineers from the country that couldn’t figure out how to produce heat 3 months ago.

Fastest pit stop is the one I’ve played a few times. The odds are all messed up so there’s value to be had.
