Very boring race.

At least now the first one is done and dusted.

Early days. This Kevin Magnussu whatever sounds like a masterstroke by ron dennis.
And hopefully his other decision of throwing whitmarsh away doesn't bite us for retaining our very own whitmarsh. . sD
Hope we are ahead by the next race

Why? Are you just troll or some idealist who cannot see reality? OMG

Get off my back stalker!

[Honzus]

Ferrari is my religion. That's why I am sad about what I see. And I am not saying what I am saying without a reason. I want to see something bright about our situation, but I can't find one.

Agree, the picture is still the same, no development in results, management comments etc. Ferrari is, and I am very sad to say this, not capable to make competitive car and whats worse even our engine/power unit seems to be the lasz in performance point of view.

[FerrariF60]

Man, Danny Ricciardo is so much more likable than Vettel. Go get him, Danny Boy .. He just said "trippin' balls" on the podium

Thanks to Stefano for playing an active part in turning us into a mediocre team.

yep, for some reason he does that every year....it's liek being so easy for him to do it....i think it's time for HIM to get teh boot; hes failed as a team principal ever since the new old rules from 09-13....adn again under these new rules adn regs...

OMG, stupid troll!

[Golfsmith]

Why do we let trolls on a Ferrari Forum.

Are us Ferrari fans not entitled to show/speak to each other about the performance of our team that's it's not up to speed for the 6th year in a row now on this forum,or do we need just say positive thing we know there's not.

[Hornet]

Well done to Magnussen, pretty impressive entrance by finishing on the podium.

Somewhat disappointing results, hopefully we were held back massively by the mentioned electrical issues. It was very obvious our car did not have the power, Alonso was losing ground to Hulk down the straight even with his DRS open.

Hopefully we can fix the issue. Sepang is going to murder anyone with power issues.

[LivingHitokiri]

I do not understand, why everyone is dooming us already ?

[mirafiori]

the truth is trolling?

Why do you feel the need to mock Ferrari, now we should be supporting this fantastic brand, give the team a chance, we have just had the biggest jump in technology ever in this sport. grow up and show some of us true Ferrari fans some respect.

[sachin]

And we should not forget the retirements of Ham..massa .and pettel..out of which surely 2 would have finished ahead of us had they completed the race ahead of us
So we would have been maybe 7th and 9th

[SinanOzerS]

I do not understand, why everyone is dooming us already ?

That's not dooming. That's the truth.

[ManFromMilan]

Never ever expected a Renault engine on the podium

Just glad it was not Vettel to be honest.

[bonzo]

I can quote Stefano even before he speaks

[Honzus]

I do not understand, why everyone is dooming us already ?

Experience from the past....

After every session you are always complaining about the team. You can't be getting much satisfaction out of the sport when you are so focussed on pinpointing failure and blame in the team. How sad for you. There is more to F1 and the team than being number 1 every session. Try enjoying F1 for what it is, a sport. Victory should never be a guarantee. It should be sweet and cherished when it happens, not a routine.

[tifosi1993]

OMG, stupid troll!

Aw, did I step on your poor, itty, bitty, little ego?

[Katu]

next time Ferrari tweets something answer it #keepcalm

[LivingHitokiri]

That's not dooming. That's the truth.

Truth ?
Shall we take the previous season start as example on how mercedes should've been doomed ?
Shall we take how many bad stars from team that turned out much better after few upgrades?


Seriously,saying that the championship is over after 1 race and judging our cars when they had major issues is ridiculous. The championship just started,reliability is the key factor in here not the speed, remember this.

[wacc]

Guys, i am frustrated and disappointed as many in here but there is no reason to give up already, it IS THE FIRST RACE OF THE YEAR.
Our drivers had both problems with their cars, they got unlucky with Safety car and yet they managed to finish in points, is it good ? ofc not but its not all doom for us.
If we manage to do this pace with problems i can only hope to see our performance when we are on good situation,where car works as they should we can figth again for wins.

Dont give up folks, we went over some crazy stuff in the past and we got rewarded in the end, the season is long so keep supporting, WE GOT THIS.

You are an optimist, aren't you? Havent you said after the Q that both drivers are going to fight for podium?

[Alonso14]

I remember people back in 2009 were saying simmilar things about Vettel

I've never liked him. When everything is smooth he is this friendly, cool, funny guy but his real side is showed straight away when things aren't great. He was like that back in 2009, maybe he was a bit more likeable in the Toro Rosso.

Criticizing is not trolling. This is a forum, and for yet another year we are far away off the top in Oz.

[mirafiori]

Are us Ferrari fans not entitled to show/speak to each other about the performance of our team that's it's not up to speed for the 6th year in a row now on this forum,or do we need just say positive thing we know there's not.

First race calm down, do you say a film is boring after 5 minutes.

[Alessandra]

Well at least we didn't retire and both in top ten, Fernando in his beloved 5th place.
Not happy, it's ominous with Merc, RBR and McL all ahead of us, both drivers in the case of McL, so no fluke.
Special congrats to Ricc and Magn. - a brilliant debut

Well done to our boys - they did their best

[ManFromMilan]

Hopefully we can fix the issue. Sepang is going to murder anyone with power issues.

Rather have an issue and still finish the race with good points. Plus this gives time to fix the problem now before Sepang.

[IulianFerrari]

And we should not forget the retirements of Ham..massa .and pettel..out of which surely 2 would have finished ahead of us had they completed the race ahead of us
So we would have been maybe 7th and 9th

More like 9th and 10th, Bottas would have been on the podium if not for that problem. 8 cars in from of us right now. In my opinion the order merc,will,rbr,mclaren. Kimi would have been ahead of hulk if not for that pit stop problem, being held up until fernando's car was done so yeah 9th and 10th looks about right.

[Honzus]

Aw, did I step on your poor, itty, bitty, little ego?

OK, the last message to you, YOU were the first who make comment to MY post, I just reacted to your ******** you wrote. In other words you are very close to my back part of body, so if it is your life goal, keep trolling.

[tifosi1993]

What kind of EL. problem did we have?

According to Sky Italia, it was ERS a problem so they couldn't use the whole electric power.

[stefa]

These two weeks are going to be long, long, long...

[Kingdom Hearts]

It looks like another year of keep calm and hopes. So sad, the frikin RB, McLaren and Williams are faster. Let's hope that the electric problems is the thing that prevented the car to be a podium contender.
