The 2026 F1 Shakedown Winners and Losers

from LawVS - The Ladder Man

I know it's testing, but we got SOME clues as to which F1 team handled it better than others.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsWith the first showcase of 2026 F1 cars behind us, we may not know times or the proper pecking order of teams...but Ferrari managed to throw some surprises in our way with their SAFE car. They might have a faster one if the FIA approves it. Could that be the thing that keeps them as the Mercedes challenger and Lewis Hamilton a chance for some proper Ferrari success in 2026 AND to keep Charles Leclerc for another year?Then there's also the matter of Red Bull. Do they have a car and engine which pleases Max Verstappen? Well, for now, yes. However it's early days but plenty to smile about...unlike with Audi who suffered the most issues of any team...and McLaren? It was a decent start but not a hot one; same for Aston Martin.Which other teams won out, lost out or were not doing enough to draw a conclusion?#f1 #formula1 #formulaone #f12026 #f1shakedown #f1testing #f1teams #f1drivers #f1latest #f1updates #f1news #f1drama The 2026 F1 Shakedown Winners and Losershttps://youtu.be/E3HBwpoKIRwGet 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #AdCastoreAffCan't watch the ladder?
