My take:
- McL has built a rocketship.
- Improvement by Williams, RacingBulls, Sauber, Alpine.
- Per Sky Italy, LEC's comment ("We must have lost a bit of performance. It's the right thing to do for this weekend, but I don't want to go into details") referred to raising the car to keep the plank wear to legal levels, and NOT a wet setup. This would be the cause of Ferrari's lack of performance.
What's YOUR opinion? 🤔

AUSTRALIAN GP - TOP SPEED PER LAP
LEC reached 333km/h, but HAM's top speed was consistently high: he used DRS on many laps, averaging 326km/h.
RUS (as OCO) NEVER used DRS: qualified well, avoided mistakes, and got on the podium!
Without DRS: ANT highest (317), NOR/OCO lowest (307).
Who surprised you the most in the season-opener? 🤔

LEC was SLOWER in all the last 4 corners in ⚫️Quali compared to 🔴FP2!🤯
Ferrari's overnight changes (probably raised the car to limit plank wear) killed its downforce and balance:
- Lost 8km/h and almost 1g in T11;
- Had to lift more in T12;
- Lost 2km/h and 0.4g in T13.
Another weird thing happened in qualifying (noted by @GaborWeber): Ferrari switched repeatedly between low and high power modes in qualifying, something I've never seen before (and which has no logical explanation).🤔
Ferrari's performance in the season opener left us with more questions than answers...

CHINESE GP PREVIEW
- More representative track than Australia; one-step-harder compounds (C2-C4) due to high tyre stress;
- Stability under braking and lateral grip will be important;
- Medium wing load provides the best drag/downforce compromise;
- Most stressed tyre: Rear Left.
Will Ferrari solve their issues?
Will the stricter wing flexibility tests impact the pecking order? 🤔

REAR WINGS - Chinese GP
Similar choices across the grid (medium-load wings)➡️Each car's inherent drag and downforce will be more evident! 💡
Ferrari is using a rear wing much more similar to McLaren's 👀(instead of a more loaded one as in Australia).
Remember that the FIA is introducing much stricter tests in China to test wing flexibility❗️(which should hurt some teams more than others).

CHINESE GP SPRINT QUALI DATA
Let's analyse Lewis Hamilton's first pole in red!
1) AERO ANALYSIS:
- 🔴🔵Ferrari/RedBull: high efficiency (high downforce, low drag);
- 🟢Mercedes: lowest drag;
- 🟠McL: Highest downforce;
- 🟣Alpine/⚪️Haas: highest drag.
2) MINISECTORS:
HAM/VER's +5km/h higher top speed made them gain on PIA on all the straights (who recovered in the fast corners).
3) GAP TO IDEAL LAP:
A McL P1-P4 finish was possible, but they couldn't combine their best sectors!

CHINESE GP - PRACTICE 1 | LONG RUNS:
Ferrari didn't do any➡️an issue for the Sprint?
Everyone used Mediums: McL and Mercedes were quickest (Excluding ALO/OCO who did just 3 valid laps). Mercedes' degradation was high.
VER was slowest: RBR used very low PU modes and a lot of fuel (slow in the fast corners).

1) 🔴HAM
2) 🟠PIA +0.27s/lap
3) 🟢RUS +0.46
4) 🔴LEC +0.47
5) 🔵VER +0.50
Ferrari's excellent tyre management helped HAM in his dominant win.
Qualifying (and Sprint Qualifying best sectors) showed that McL (and maybe Mercedes) are quicker, yet they wear their tyres more.
An exciting race ahead!
