It's very good to read the amount of laps of Alonso today. Have we done a race simulation today? I read that Rosberg did.

8. Rosberg Mercedes GP 1:36.951 +7.928 91
9. Kobayashi Caterham 1:43.193 +14.170 54
10. Kvyat Toro Rosso 1:44.016 +14.993 8
11. Ricciardo Red Bull Racing 1:45.374 +16.351 7
15:37 Alonso meanwhile is up to 113 laps for the day - 20 more than the entire field managed just 72 hours ago.
113 laps for Alonso...good running for Ferrari.
115 laps and pit
It's good to see we are putting in all the laps. So far everything hints that the Merc camp will be formidable rivals. Certainly can't count Red Bull out too. We need to keep working on producing a car as reliable and fast as them, and our driver will do the rest.
I bet TR wish they had stayed with Ferrari power right about now...
It's fantastic to see the great number of laps completed by Alonso but can someone tell me why are the lap times much slower today than in the previous days? Is it wet and cold there today or what?
Red flag. It's the Toro Rosso.
Must say these Renaults are ridiculous. They need to pull them selves together for Bahrain BADLY.
Looks like we may be done for the day.
Red flag, magnussen crashed. Nothing serious
So it's the end of Jerez:
1 Massa (Williams) 1m28.229s, 86 laps
2 Alonso (Ferrari) 1m29.145s, 115 laps
3 Juncadella (Force India) 1m29.457s, 81 laps
4 Magnussen (McLaren) 1m30.806s, 110 laps
5 Hamilton (Mercedes) 1m30.822s, 41 laps
6 Bianchi (Marussia) 1m32.222s, 25 laps
7 Sutil (Sauber) 1m36.571s, 69 laps
8 Rosberg (Mercedes) 1m36.951s 91 laps
9 Kobayashi (Caterham) 1m43.193s, 54 laps
10 Kvyat (Toro Rosso) 1m44.016s, 9 laps
11 Ricciardo (Red Bull) 1m45.374s, 7 laps
Torro Rosso is pretty much the the B team of Red Bull where they test out young talent. Every info shared with them will probably go directly to Renault where RB benefits from.
I think things went pretty good for Ferrari, good running, decent times.
Appears we didnt have a lot of issues, so, not bad considering.
Funny how it's Caterham that got the most of these tests out of the Renault teams.
115 laps without any kind of technical problem or teething issues, definitely an excellent day today. Team is "reasonably happy" and 059/3 managed over 400 laps without a failure. So overall, strong four days for Ferrari in Jerez.
Bring on Bahrain!
