    But why to mix new components with old ones? Can't Vettel go to 1st engine with all Melbourne Spec components?

    sure he could, but why would he? To avoid grid spot penalties??? okay, but now he's down in hp vs. the current Spec 3. Have to weigh the grid penalty vs the hp loss.

    Yeah grid penalty is my concern because second half can also be called Vettel's half. Monza, Singapore, Suzuka, Brazil, Abu Dhabi, Mexico etc..these are tracks where Vettel is at his very best. So any penalty can potentially ruin a weekend where he has a strong shot at victory.

    The lap record at Hungaroring is still held by Michael Schumacher from 2004, with an impressive time of 1:19.071.

    Seb showing mighty pace already, just 6 tenths slower than last year's pole.

    Considering Ferrari’s historical Friday pace - this is looking good. Definitely between us and redbull for pole. Couldn’t call it either way right now. Redbull looks strong too that’s for sure.

    Since Austria, Kimi has had problems to keep track limits in practice sessions, I think that means that car is almost too fast, when Old Dog has these kind of problems.

    Seb's long pace looks good, faster than Bottas.

    if Seb wins on Sunday it will be 3 victories in 4 yrs, pretty impressive.

    hopefully RB ahead Mercs, and behind us, but Kimi can always make a mistake and lose P2

    It’s mad max vs vet for pole. Kimi will be p3 at max P4, if DR out qualifies him. Considering kimi q3 performances.
