    Sucks that we seem to be so far behind on Mercs thanks to upgrades, as the results stand , we are way behind, hopefully Ferrari heavier or Mercs turned up engine... speaking from results today

    It's bad that pirelli didn't choose soft compound of tyres.

    i still think it will be down to tire management for this race, whoever has a good balance and very good on the tires will win. remember that this track is very hard on the tires.

    the big question now is - have the mercs found a solution to tire management?

    Can anyone confirm our fastest time on mediums during preseason? It would be reassuring if we're behind that as it would indicate more is to come....?

    Sebastian Vettel Ferrari Day Three Mediums 1:21.609, if we assume it was third day and Ferrari improved by couple tenths it should be good.

    If it comes down to Bot vs Ham, i'd go with Bot he is really impressive to just join a team and beat Ham early on

    Thank you this is very helpful (and encouraging). Do you have a source? I've been looking forward to this weekend for so long... I don't know how I'll manage if it turns out to be a disaster.

    1.22.5 on medium's in FP1. Ferrari still has the potential to beat time into 1.21's. which is there is representative time in season testing earlier.
    But the question is the potential of merc is still to come or is this the max as they are testing the upgrades.

    Merc introduced their phase 2 PU for this race (AMuS) so they need to test everything for reliability and probably turn everything a little bit more than usual.
