nice, looks like Kimi likes to drive there, I hope he does not crash, tight track

**Ferrari312T4** · 29th August 2018, 16:12

Probably raining on qualify. But sunny and 24 degrees on sunday. It's going to be interesting nonetheless. Perhaps we might do alright even in the rain.

**KimiBot** · 29th August 2018, 16:18

**KimiBot** · 29th August 2018, 16:24

What an amateur; how can u crash when you’re demonstrating the car to the fans?
Is this guy even worthy of a WDC? Jeesh

Kimi put on a show, he never crashed....

**ChrisFerrari** · 29th August 2018, 17:25

Seb looked like he had a hangover, could not do the donuts at first then crashed and broke the front wing. I hope its not an omen for the upcoming race...He better be sharp bcz RapperBoy and his german culprits will have a go at us in our home turf as hard as they can. This GP will be the focal point of how the title race will be shaping up. Beyond important to say the least.

I totally agree with you.....we have to go all out for wins until the last year race
We cannot drop the ball at all and everyone as a team including the drivers have to deliver beyond 100%

And that’s how we’re gonna win WDC and hopefully WCC as well

At least is raining on Friday also so we have time to understand better our car and do some running in the rain, in case will rain in Qualy, so we can secure that front row for Sunday’s rAce

He hasn't won a race yet either. But his donuts are awesome.

he's not allowed; when you're labeled #2 driver, all you do is help your teammate....and he cannot even do that properly....like the potato head at Merc does..... the team is making sure of that, like underfueling him in quali, giving him the second best strategy during the race...just so Seb wins it
but of course u being a Seb fan boy cannot see this....lol

I guess Charlie is turning a blind eye maybe???

Are not the regulations from running spec cars only for "testing"??? This is not a testing event nor is it sanctioned.....it's merely a closed short circuit course which the car barely gets up to 3rd gear really.

I’m not so sure but this is the first time I’ve seen a team using a current spec car for a promotional event.

I don’t know wts the source, where it was shown. As far I see, rain is predicted at fp3. Not during quali.

Oh good. Google says that its gonna rain friday and sat afternoon. Maybe we should not be stressed about the weather since it said 0% chance of rain in spa quali and then it rainied in q3 haha. Its really unpredictable

Here's Seb binning it in the mini-wall at the Milan Festival 2018 (maybe there was oil on the track)

**mwk360** · 29th August 2018, 18:44

Lol it did look like Seb was drunk, when he smashed the front wing i got flashback of germany, thought they'd give some info if they bringing any new updates in the interviews but nothing from marc gene or M.A. .Maybe reached a point where it's hard to keep bringing new updates as the car is already at its best.

Sauber boys got cheered a lot. They treat Leclerc like Italian, M.E got nice round of applause after his donuts and smoke lol. Was a bit expecting him to get a mild reaction because of A.Gio fighting for that seat but it was really nice. what year/model car was the sauber boys driving in?

LOL everytime they showed lewsy's post race interview and seb passing him in slipstream was great.

I hope Seb can win in Monza. mercedes will go to the extreme to get revenge for silverstone especially with the terrible luck of rain looming for Quali.

A win in monza will be such a nice moment they could decide to dedicate it to those who lost their lives in the bridge incident and the Legendary late Sergio M.

All three teams signed so much autographs and took a lot of pics which was really cool as i believe the event was free

Fortunately I support both of our drivers. But 1 is fighting for the WDC the other isn't. And perhaps you being a Kimi fanboy maybe you have conveniently forgotten the 5 years since Kimi won his WDC, he's been beaten by his team mate. Is it all because of Ferrari not wanting him to succeed?
