#F1 | #FP3 5 °C warmer than FP2. Track temps currently at 17 °C, the warmest it's been all weekend. Still very low humidity. Temps should be around where they were in FP1 for Qualifying. #LasVegasGP

#F1 | According to Giuliano Duchessa and #Autoracer at least 8 teams had to make changes to conform to the new technical directive regarding plank satellite skids. Red Bull included.

The teams were informed 6 days before the start of the #LasVegasGP.

Hefty tow for Sainz on his fast lap into turn 14. Almost a 2 tenth gain. All in all, both drivers are pretty close in qualifying trim. I'd say Charles doesn't look particularly comfortable either.

Saturday, as we've become accustom to, will be the more challenging session.

9:30am and Friday's session in Las Vegas is done. Do they just expect me to go on with my day?

A switch to the Monza spec wing for FP2.

#F1 | 10°C ambient temps ahead of FP2 #LasVegasGP

Minimal changes in the humidity and wind conditions. Important session.

I haven't mentioned it here, but the floor is purely for correlation checks. According to Jock Clear, it is NOT a performance part. It will NOT be running during any competitive sessions, let alone for the rest of the season.

Speed trap and finish line speeds still down for Ferrari. I expect a change to a lower downforce wing for #FP2

The speed trap is at the end of the long straight before turn 14. We're right at the bottom of the leaderboard. Merc, McLaren & Red Bull all at the top.

Both Ferrari drivers report graining front right tyre on the soft. #FP1

Ferrari are trialling a prep lap during the soft shot runs during #FP1 with an eye to qualifying. Both cars using the more loaded wing during this session. I expect a change to the Monza spec come FP2. #LasVegasGP

#F1 | Weather forecast ahead of FP1. #LaVegasGP

12 °C ambient temps, relatively low humidity @ 24% which lowers the temperature felt to 9 °C. Not much wind around, either. No chance of rain for the entire weekend.

#F1 | Current vs '25 experimental floor edge #LasVegasGP

Edge wing closer to what we see on other cars. Sizeable SG entry for the rear corner. Imagine it reduces the RH sensitivity of the FE. The downwashing ramp before the SG is aggressive, possibly entrain the surrounding air into the SG.

#F1 | Two different spec rear wings to compare this weekend for Ferrari (excuse low quality) #LasVegasGP

#F1 | Ultra low downforce for the SF-24 in #LasVegasGP

short corners, long straights = monza downforce levels. The asphalt grip index is as low as 1 (1-5). Often, you'll see some teams give the drivers more downforce during the greenest phases of the circuit to inspire some confidence.

#F1 | Summary of autoracer.it (formerly formu1a UNC) live stream | translated by FerrariF1FRA (X) 🧵

#F1 | Ferrari will have an experimental floor during Friday's free practice sessions at the #LasVegasGP

The plan is to see how things on the '25 car correlate on track. Both drivers will have the opportunity to test it.

Race week #LasVegasGP 🇺🇸

Very crucial weekend ahead for Ferrari. Favourable circuit in unfavourable conditions. Are they on top of the tyre warm up issues?

Other very interesting story lines to unfold during the build up to the weekend.
