That is probably one problem but IMHO based on what I have read in the media the software problems have been monumental.

Compared to other times of today.

Another PB for Ricciardo (1:36.340s) puts him third fastest. Just three laps for the Red Bull though in that run.

I hope so

**Schumiklub** · 28th February 2014, 12:57

According to http://directo.caranddriverthef1.com/ FA switched to soft tyres now and did a 1:39 lap

**Ste** · 28th February 2014, 12:57

Ferrari are doing pitstop practices by waiting till the last minute to come out of the garage, when Alonso reaches the final corner.

**Ago** · 28th February 2014, 12:57

Marussia and Sauber also doing decent mileage for Ferrari PU, Mclaren got just over 1 hour to get some more laps unless they still fixing problem.

**fronaldo** · 28th February 2014, 12:58

Great stuff..

I think your eyes are deceiving you.

I have seen Alonso mentioned more times then Lewis on the live section.

Well with just three laps it might be to see how quickly they can get it to overheat?

**tifosi1993** · 28th February 2014, 13:00

Alonso 1:39.0, Parez 1:40's, Massa 1:54's

F1Today has been behind all day and so has caranddriverf1

MSFree has been way more up to date, so use that for now. I change between each depending on the day - none of them are totally reliable.

Alonso is currently on 93.

98 laps now

**fronaldo** · 28th February 2014, 13:02

Alonso currently the fastest man on-track for Ferrari. He's lapping consistently in the 1m39s having now clocked more laps than anyone else (99). Perez is in the high 1m40s for Force India and still blatting round

Hopefully we can do 120 laps or more.

Good to see the car getting a lot of laps under the belt today.

**Schumiklub** · 28th February 2014, 13:03

A loose translation from http://directo.caranddriverthef1.com/

Alonso does a 1:39.357. He did 98 so far. Kimi said that 100 laps could be achieve without problems and he's very close.

**mizf1** · 28th February 2014, 13:03

Ferrari were working on starts the other day, hopefully we continue to be the best starters on race day.

**tifosi1993** · 28th February 2014, 13:03

100 LAPS!

Yeah, maybe. I was just mad they didn't mention his pace during the earlier stages of the race simulation. It's OK now.

**mizf1** · 28th February 2014, 13:07

Mercedes might have more BHP etc etc, however I am confident in the overall package of the Ferrari.
I think we might not be the fastest over 1 lap but in the race we will be strong.
