I missed FP3 thinking it will be just as stupid as yesterday's sessions. Seems I was wrong


Now I'm excited! Hoping for a dry quali, and a wet race

I have a question. The teams which are getting their engines from the same manufacturer. are they all getting the same basic engine model and then do their own tweaks on them?
or is someone like Ferrari for example delivering less good engines to other teams to make sure they stay in front of their competitors?

I know that Renault have a separate engine department that works with each team separately for tweaks. The engine is exactly the same for all the teams

3 teams broke the curfew

Quote:
McLaren, Caterham and Marussia all broke the team curfew overnight between Friday and Saturday at the British Grand Prix at Silverstone.

Team personnel associated with the operation of the car for each of the teams remained within the confines of the circuit during the six-hour period between 1am and 7am on Saturday morning.

Each team is allowed four exceptions per year. In all three cases this was the first one, and the FIA confirmed in a statement that no action would be taken.

Quick rundown of my past favorites :

Senna
Villeneuve (Yes, Jacques. Say what you will he was entertaining)
Raikonnen // To a lesser degree Alonso.

I have preferences, people I generally want to do well, but overall if you give me a good race I am happy.
