    Imo, Merc and RB will not show their true hand until Melbourne, and hopefully we do the same. But in saying that, we dont even know and wont know if they showed it in testing or not. Its just a waiting game for us fans looking in from the outside.
    CUT ME. CUT YOU. BOTH OUR BLOOD IS FERRARI RED!

    I like it how Ferrari is not responding to the faster times by other teams. Clearly RBR and Williams are trying to but we stick to our program.

    Actually its 82 laps according to F1Today

    81 from Autosport
    Vettel's 81, which include a great stint on mediums at the end that featured 14 flying laps with supreme consistency

    How worried should we be about Allison at Mercedes? How different do you think the SF70H is from his original vision? Different enough that he can't offer them insights into Ferrari form? Or similar enough that any benefit Ferrari may have over Mercedes (IF there are any benefits) can simply be implemented on the Mercedes??

    I think Mclaren has changed engines MORE than it has changed tyres in these testing sessions?????

    It does not look good for this team.

    They will be using the races as testing, I wonder if Alonso still believes in the 'project' as we are 3 years in now.

    Must be gut wrenching for him. So when the engine gives out at OZ he is going to do the song and dance from a PR issue something like this: Alonso " We are still making progress with the engine as we would like for our testing to have gone much further than expected but it happens. Hopefully we can find the problem now and move forward".....which sounds to me like BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH!!!!

    To be fair, alonso deserves more championships than vettel & hamilton. He's most rated driver in the paddock by most of the teams.
    At the same time, he deserves criticism for his swtich between the teams. No one is to blame for that except himself. Going back to mclaren was a total risk & blunder move. He took a chance, it didn't pay him. That's it.

    yep, as far as the japanese, whom are known for making quality and reliable automobiles, it just shows how complex these engines are...3years with the same engine and they cannot get it right?? I mean once they put their mind on something, they stick to it and perfect it but this is just........mind-blowing.

    wts worrying part is, they are unable to find where the issue is from the engine side. They have no answers for 1st season testing engine failure till now. That's really a concern going into the season. I soon see, either mclaren-honda partnership or alonso-mclaren contract broken.

    Alonso said he'll make up his mind at the summer break. Me thinks that if this continues like it is now, he'll retire from F1.
    Drive it like you stole it!

    I see the former rather than the latter IMHO...............

    Did Massa do a 1.19 something with the mediums? I saw at f1today that, now his top run is on softs, but did he do something close on mediums? That would really show how low the times can get. Probably in 1.17 flat or lower
