The Red Bull has never had a Mercedes actually... The Mercedes chassis is "good enough" that they have still won many titles without the best chassis but with the best engine, good for them. |

Psst, do not say that loud. Someone here in the forum is very much believing in the Mercedes spin doctors and we would not want to shake his world.

Shh.. don't say that out too loud. And for Christ's sake.. don't mention Haas F1 either. They're 5th in the WCC, with what is pretty much a 2017 Ferrari chassis. But please keep that to yourself. Don't want to upset the Vettel believers on here.
Oh.. and do we need to mention that Mercedes powered team that is last in the WCC!! |

Is this guy for real? Or is he just a massive troll? Like really, What’s his deal? Is he a care in the community project for the forum?

Armchair TV fan that Vettel accidentally snubbed for an autograph outside The Grosvenor one December Sunday a few years ago when we were all going in.

There is no such thing as THE best car or THE best engine, let alone THE best car AND engine.
Cars are upgraded during the season. Some upgrades work, some don't. Some cars get upgrades while others are still in a previous version. Some upgrades work better than expected, some don't work as intended (or even don't work at all). Engines (components) get evolutions during the season. See: upgrade of cars. Some cars are better suited to certain tracks or circumstances then others. Some engines are better suited to certain tracks or circumstances than others. |

A scourge on the site single handedly dragging down the level of discourse around here, pushing every thread from a fun or interesting conversation to a silly point scoring argument pushed to the extremes of opinions.

And has somehow survived being permanently banned despite constantly breaking the forum rules, as well as going to the effort of finding out and posting forum member's surnames on the forum, which is just plain creepy.

McLaren have been particularly strong at this over the years, as have Red Bull - and the unifying factor these days is that they're both powered by Renault who aren't exactly innocent either. There is no way on this planet I would describe anything other than the Mercedes, both chassis and engine, as the best this year... Anyway, maybe I ought to be clearer in future. I understand that putting rolling face smilies achieves this. |

Steering back towards topic - does anyone know if Honda are bringing any more updates to the PU this season? They reverted to the older spec - so is that being kept for the rest of year or are they going to bring another iteration to the final races? |

The issue seems to have arisen from a member of the Ferrari Tifosi, who refuses to believe that Ferrari are anything other than the best team in F1 and has the best chassis and engine. So much so that when the prospect of Red Bull having a better chassis, they had to counter that proposal!!! |
