they are probably testing or breaking-in the new engine.

i would wait for fp3 to have a good idea in the pecking order of the cars, it's too early to assume anything right now.

yeah, last 10 minutes in FP3

[KimiBot]

race pace in FP2

[fmatiasii]

race pace in FP2

yep.....aero and engine.....and IMHO....the engine is not on quali mode soooooo....

[mwk360]

Vet is 12 in speedtrap so im guessing he is really downforce orientated, Ham is 10 in speedtrap but in P1 so you def need downforce

Sad that we didnt upgrade anything major

Thank you! Not going to pretend that I'm not concerned - but Ferrari have already gone faster than they have today in testing. Of course that was on softer rubber...

Bottom line is, no one knows. It's never good to be so far adrift of Mercedes. BUT all to play for. And it's FP1 after all

[mwk360]

nico rosberg

lol he ain't developing Merc against Ham style though,are you certain

[alfaromeo]

[jgonzalesm6]

[fmatiasii]

i would expect it would be down to 1.20's during qualifying.

[nani_s23]

Hass car seems to have too much of reliability problems....it's becoming worst season for them with good car.
