Just bad luck so far this season. Sometimes it goes the other way.

Got some questions that maybe the brain trust can answer, there was one camera view that showed Leclec leading Max (he was close, can't remember when in the race it was), thae cars were coming straight at the camera and you could see the Ferrari porposing but Max was not, was that because the RB was following closely or what. The talking heads pointed it out but never expanded on the reason for the RB running smooth. I had thought that Ferrari was kind of the leader of the teams as they try to control the bouncing. Found it strange that the porposing goes away in the corners, camera view showed it, talking heads commented on it but no reason as to why, the camera view looked to be into a fast corner but don't know if its cornering or braking that eliminates it.
Seems everyone is having a hard/long time getting the hard compound tires up to temp. I heard that there is a lower tire blanket temp limit as part of the new rules, anyone know what that temp is and what the difference is from last year?

I think it has to do with any braking or cornering force changing the loading of the suspension enough to overpower the cyclic loading from the aerodynamics. Ferrari had horrendous porpoising this weekend, didn't really see it so much on the RB.
