    Same story as last year. At least if Kimi is at this level the whole season maybe you guys can win the WCC.

    What do you people get from all the negativity? Is it going to help the team? I understand ciricism, but bashing the team after just one qualifying session where we took 2nd and 3rd places is not productive. How can you call yourselves Ferrari fans? I guess you would only be happy if we have a season like 2004. This isn't going to happen any time soon, it's always going to be a close fight.

    What the hell are you doing??? Why are you so defensive today? The only thing I said is, that if it will come so far, as shutting it down here, I would try to create something, so we have a place to talk and to still be "together". What's wrong with that?

    thats depressing to think. desperately hoping Sergio M does something or the Italian media gives some them some fire to work better and remind that its ferrari and not good enough to be a 3rd best team. We'l see tomorrow hopefully its hot. so party mode can shred its tyres

    Look at Silverstone last year for ham, he smashed everyone by .6-7ths. But other tracks Ferrari are close n took pole positions too.
    Singapore vet’s track he too smashed everyone by .6ths. It’s basically down to set-up, driver, confidence on the car.

    Grow up.

    It was just banter with Seb, if they can laugh and joke with each other it’s pathetic for some of you to take personally

    Preeeaaach. Most members here come across as if they’re 12 years old. I’d be surprised to learn people’s actual ages. But these sorts of reactions are literally child like. People accuse Vettel of throwing his toys out of the pram. People need to look in the mirror.

Well all that, if the F1 will not die until it happens. The changes they keep aplying are making the sport less atractive by the day.... I don't know, why I felt the need to write this...

    good post, i agree completely. Sadly i think the Man Sergio M is going to ruthless this year, they promised him a championship year after year and with todt, brawn and f1 doing everything to strip ferrari of what it wants, i can see him taking Ferrari out. Doesn't look good at all compared to Mercs but we'l see tomorrow. Rumours saying that FiA guy will be replacing Maurizio i hope not, but if Ferrari fail yet again i could see him axed sadly.

    Hopes for Dani Ric coming to ferrari next year seems dashed :( , its not championship winning car and Bottas messing up has helped Dani ric go towards that side even more now

    Well you didn’t sound like you had any faith in our team. I know recent years we lost because of in-season development, but it has to change at some point. I’m not writing off the season based on one qualifying session.

    With regards to those that have an issue with "negativity."

    Another strategy is to ignore the comment completely rather than let it suck you into another "negativity" debate..... just a friendly suggestion.

    Be thankful that it wasn't one of our cars in the wall and although rapper boy beat us to pole, we still got P2/3 and anything can happen from there, Mad Max is a bit too close for comfort but for God's sake let's be a bit more positive, Kimi and Seb did a good job, just not quite enough to wipe the smile off HAM's face. It's race 1 of a long season.

    yeah on paper it looks like an 'easy' win for Lewis but many things can happen in the race, this is not over yet.

    Toxicity? im fed up of this forum turning into a cesspool of team bashing, bashing each member who wants to have fate in the team, for not being depressed about how rubbish the team is doing. Easy to come here and bash your keyboards. People like you have helped turn this atmosphere here into what it is. You dont like it, fork out your own money and start up your own site then. Say you like it here, your passionate, but can see any donations over the years to help run this site. All been is warnings, suspensions, doom and gloom.

    In mean time, i wait with baited breath see how this goes.

    I dont like ranting, i want talk and support my team.

    I think this year the Ferrari made a very good engine, chassis is also good, but we need some races to extract the max potential out of the car. What I find very optimistic, that we are at the top off the speed charts, so in Bahrain,China we should be pretty fast, you know a powerful engine gives you a lot more chance for overtaking. I would love to see Kimi overtaking Hamilton at the start tomorrow, with Vettel following them. This would mean an amazing fight to the end, hope we have a pretty strong race pace.

    is it just me or did Vettel's last lap in Q3 seem less than perfect?
    it might be wishful thinking but i don't think that 0.6xx gap is as bad as it looks on paper.
    Life might be hard, Concrete is a lot harder

    He made a mistake in turn 13. He could go faster, but so could Max.. HAM was on an other level..
    Biggest problem for us is Mad Max.. RBR seems to be up there and he is delivering so he will be at the front, which is good if he gives HAM a hard time like Malaysia 2017 etc, but not good if he keeps annoying us
