2013 Belgian GP: Friday & Saturday Free Practice Thread

Dear Mr Alonso, dear Mr Massa, this afternoon after qualifying I will be busy painting the outside of my house. I really hate that job.
So you'd better do something to make me happy! Agreed?
Ok, thank you.

Biggest problem I think is the fact that its very close, so could be a problem in qualy, also, it could be raining.. does anybody have a clue about race pace and deg?

Well, if we did go for lower downforce setup, then I hope it doesn't rain or we will be screwed

Anyone notice which rear wing Alonso was using? old or new?

I haven't seen which one, but looking at the laptime I would say it was the right one.....

Ted said, that both we and Red Bull got rid off the new low downforce rear wings and probably will use them just in Monza.

Why do I have that nasty feeling RB still have something up their sleeve?
Although both our boys did very well this morning I still have an uncomfortable feeling about qualy....and I don't know why.

Despite all the yesterday's doom and gloom from the negative people, Ferrari has made progress in the car development in the positive direction, that's quite clear. Alonso's fastest lap was just pure pleasure to watch. The car looked very well balanced and easy to drive. But I'm afraid that the rain could undo all that.
