China 2006 is still such a brilliant drive, qualifying and race. Sublime.

And of course the legendary Spain 1996 win.

Saw first trailer in TV yesterday, looked good.

I saw it in Italy. No doubt a great film, but more focused on his private life than on racing, and absolutely zero on Formula 1. So not exactly what I would have wanted, but still a must see for Ferrari fans.

I think that it being Enzo and not F1 may make it better, at least would be more embracing of the the person Ferrari, than the brand which these days (and Le Mans 2023 notwithstanding) equals F1 to everyone. If they can crawl behind the myth and deliver it in a well acted, well scripted way it sound to me as a movie I would prefer over a F1 vehicle.

 

Proof will be in the pudding, I await reviews from those who go watch in the theaters.

 

Edit to add, casting Adam Driver as Enzo is not one I would have thought of, by the trailer appear a very good choice.

Weirdly, I've seen a trailer on Sky tv that says in cinemas from Dec 26, boxing day, whereas the website says 25th........

Cinemas are called theatres in the States. Thier release date is probably a day earlier. Are any cinema open in the UK on Xmas day?

Car flying through the air and hitting the top of a street lamp post. So very Hollywood. From the director of Heat. Potentially another over-the-top Hollywood production.

Meant to be de Portago judging by the car number. Would you be shocked if I suggested that the actual crash was nothing like that?

This is a great pair of drivers.

[vlado]

This is a great pair of drivers.

 

It is and I think we are in a unique situation where there are at least 3 solid pair of drivers on the grid, which I don't think happens often in Formula 1 

[ConsiderAndGo]

Yeah Ferrari should be getting both extended asap. The very last problem Ferrari has is its drivers.

[dia6olo]

While both drivers are very capable, the problem remains that they are two drivers that want different things from the car and no matter what their respective abilities are with a car that suits them, Ferrari cannot build a car that suits both, any attempt to do so will ultimately be counter productive for Ferrari and both drivers.

Strongest lineup in the field for me.

Think both Mercedes and McLaren must be in that discussion, and I do not really care for either of those 4 drivers.

Agree, Ferrari just shade it for me from Merc with McLaren a tad further back. AM, Sauber, Williams, RBR are lopsided Haas stale and Minardi a mixed bag.

I'd agree with this too, hard to argue any other way

 

Hard to rate Haas and RB Lite as they have balanced pairings but with question marks over the absolute ability of those drivers, and that's me as a Dany Ric and Hulk fan

 

To me, Sauber is the weakest pairing of those pairings with balanced drivers

 

Williams weakest overall as Albon is not Verstappen/Alonso level and as it currently stands Sergeant is weaker than Stroll and Perez

Speculation: They used to sponsor Sainz no, a sign Carlos will not be extended?
Estrella Galicia 0,0. Move their sponsorship to mclaren
