Two hours into #BudaTest day two and #Seb5 is the man to beat: 1m17.124s, two seconds faster than anyone else #F1
Thanks! Let's hope the story is not true. We need consistency. We are succeeding. Let's not get caught up in these internal struggles and dispose of valuable members of the team. Everything is in place. I am hopeful it stays this way for at least the remainder of the season. Certainly hopefully Longer too!

Kubica vs. Palmer vs Hulk......

Very consistent times, i'm impressed. But not sure its right to compare with the race times because fuel loads and tire wear will be different.
Honda is testing a Spec 4 engine as well.....which for the moment looks impressive as well as the rookie Lando Norris.
End of day 2 testing. Here are the results

Kimi isn't getting the credit for being The team player of the race. Well not around here, on the Ferrari forum anyway
Seb and Kimi optimistic: “We’ve picked up momentum, want to be stronger everywhere”
Mogyorod, August 2 – The second and last in-season test session of the year ended with both Scuderia Ferrari drivers back on track at the Hungaroring after last Sunday’s one-two in the race. Sebastian Vettel took the wheel of the SF70H this morning at 9, and handed over to Kimi Raikkonen after a couple of hours, for the Finn to continue the development work. Sebastian completed 47 laps, his best time being a 1min17sec124 on Supersoft tires, while Kimi ran 60 laps with a best time of 1’’17’842 on Supersoft tires. Now it’s time for our guys – not only the drivers, but all the team – to have some well-deserved rest during the two-week summer break, to get ready for the forthcoming challenges.
“You don’t get a lot of testing over the season”, Seb said “so it was a good opportunity to try a couple of things and get a feeling from the car. Obviously, in such a brief test you are not expecting to turn the world upside down, but it will be useful for the next races and for a better understanding of the car. I think this year we’ve been strong pretty much everywhere, of course there have been races in which we did not perform at our best; of course there will always differences from track to track, but the purpose of all the work we do is to be in a good shape for the rest of the season. We’ve picked up momentum with the win in Hungary, now it’s up to us to keep it going, but I am confident that we have the right people and are going in the right direction. As for my holidays… I haven’t done much planning, I think I’ll just be getting some rest, after all those flights!”
“We always bring something different, irrespective of where we are and try to learn from it, commented Kimi. “We had a very good result, as a team, here in Hungary, but we always try to improve further. Today was a normal testing day, but obviously here you have more time and tires available than you have during a race weekend, so we try to get the best out of it. In the last few races, my feeling with the car has improved consistently, which shows that the new things we’ve brought have helped me drive better and better. Also, I am happy that I could help Charles Leclerc prepare for his test, but then it’s fair to say that all the team supported him”.
CAVALLINO RAMPANTE PER SEMPRE
He's getting credit interms of contract extension every year. Whether he does a good job or not.
As a person he's very cool & kind hearted guy n pretty much team player.
On other side he's pretty much vulnerable to these young drivers around him on the track, that's the only problem.
Ferrari decided to go with same team for 2018 which is good. Also he's helping young drivers Antonio & Charles behind the scene. That's what makes him even more great.
I'm expecting good result at spa for Ferrari.
1-2 or 2-3

Hamilton & Bottas to run new Merc engines (4th ICE, turbo & MGU-H). Haas cars fitted with new Ferrari engines.
AMuS:
Haas getting a new livery (white) probably due to new Ferrari PU.
is this an upgraded engine from Ferrari??? or they're getting the same spec engine as Ferrari had for the past races??? or the last engine upgrade Ferrari had.
any news as to WHEN Ferrari will introduce another engine upgrade??? and if so will we get a penalty for it???
They are getting the 2017 spec engine. No news on Ferrari engine upgrade.......will post if something comes up. Getting alot of traffic right now but it is mostly pics of
the front wings and engine covers out on the pit lane.
Oh one more thing to mention...Haas went back to Brembo brakes on both cars soooooo Mr. Lettuce (Romain) will be back whinning again over team radio about the
brakes.
