    Their tyre degredation has been pretty bad... that's the only way we can limit the damage.

    Don’t worry, there’s long run down to turn1.

    But because its Hamilton there will be no penalt
    They'll say the weather conditions don't justify the penalty or something. Yeah, No penalty for Gangsta Boy.

    All we need is to jump one of the mercs at start.... Then I'll start hearing hamiltons rants on the radio. We have the pace to win tomorrow. I hope we come up with a good strategy.

    Unlucky in had to rain but that's how it is. They just have to put their heads down and race tomorrow. Strange RBR were so slow. The grid now will make for a very interesting race and all drivers can start on whatever compound they want. Either the undercut or the overcut will work depending on the length of the first stint.

    Mercedes can easily control the race from front, remember last year when Vettel had steering issue, he was a couple of seconds slower than his ideal pace and yet Mercedes could do nothing about it.

    Tomorrow, Ferrari can do absolutely nothing about it. Luckiest driver of Milky Way Galaxy will luck into another hollow victory.

    Are we free to choose any tires tomorrow?
    Or not since they did qualify on slicks in Q2

    Free tire choice. This is not finished yet.

    Vettel is 4th, he can't get to 1st. Kimi is 3rd, he can't get first either, he probably will brake earlier and will keep 3rd position or slip to 4th. This race is lost, time to look forward to Spa.

    What I'm trying to say is, Sebastian was extremely lucky to win the 2012 championship. He spun at the start and collided with another car, but didn't suffer any damage.

    Right now Lewis is riding high on luck, but it can change quickly.

    This is what I think we have to do...

    Pit as soon as possible onto the Softs. Say lap 15. As soon as the Mercs pace drops on the ultras. This will force a long final stint on the softs for the mercs. They can't handle it. We should be able to pass.

    I think we are free to choose. I hope we split our strategies

    Oh, I was only trying to comment on Lewis' luck. Not Vettel's lack of luck.

    The problem is that Mercedes will start on the softs. Remember the free tyre choices because of wet Q2.

    Seb is not great in full wet conditions. If it was intermediate, i think we would have a chance.

    On another note, happened to RBR

    Australia was the only time Hamilton was unlucky but that happens once in a century.

    maybe we havent chased the "wet" set-up. I know there isnt much between wet and dry set-ups anymore, apart from suspension and bit of wing adjusting.

    But, its forecast dry and hot tomorrow, 34 degrees. Havent watched qualifying, yet. But im sure tomorrows race will come to us.

    Im watching 24hrs of Spa. Whoop.

    Lewis is riding high on luck since he was born, nothing new you saw today.

    Since 2004 the driver who went onto win the hungarian grand prix never won the championship.....sky kept repeating during P1 P2 and P3. I wonder what they say now.

    I don't think they'll start on ultras

    Even if we won’t overtake, if we stay close. Overcut or undercut will work in this case for sure.

    If we are stuck in P3 and P4 after the start, we can undercut surely?

    Yes so Merc can lead in front with soft and Ferrari destroys their faster ultra soft behind Mercs? What an absolutely terrible idea.
