What is the assessment after two Grand Prix?

Disappointing! In Melbourne, for the season opener, the weather conditions had briefly suggested a possible recovery similar to the 2024 Brazilian Grand Prix. Alas, Pierre Gasly and Jack Doohan had this time proved incapable of compensating for the weaknesses of their machines. The Australian rookie, under pressure, had spoiled what had been a satisfactory weekend until then with a big crash at the start, and the team leader, in difficulty during the late downpour, had slipped to the door of the points. If the result was frustrating, it nevertheless gave hope for a more express Chinese Grand Prix. Which was not the case

In any case, Briatore can no longer even hope to sell the team to Cadillac... All that remains is to find a discreet way to cheat to save the day?

Pronto, Flavio, it's Louca!! But, it's even worse than in 2024. But, you didn't tell me that everything was cheating because the wadding hasn't moved forward since you changed the fin.
