2014 Italian GP Friday and Saturday Practice Session Thread

[ARUN M KARUNAN]

Tune for our home race Monza GP.Let's start talk

[Kingdom Hearts]

I already can feel the pain

The team changed the gear ratio on Kimi's car, I wonder if they will do the same with Fernando or maybe he already used the one time change.

[ARUN M KARUNAN]

but the rules says fixed gear ratios for entire season for 2014

Each driver has one joker...

[Kristof_F40]

Set Up will be crucial.. if you look at Spa: RBR was very very quick in S1 and S3 due to low DF to compensate.. Ferrari and Merc were on higher DF: Merc was doing well, we lost a lot of time in S1 and S3. Ofcourse everyone will run low DF here, but we really need to nail it.. Also don't know about the whether thought F1.com said rain on sunday earlier this week?

[Black Adder]

30 min into P1 and it doesn't look too bad for Ferrari... Of course much too early, but we are in the game!

At friday, we are always in top 3 places... here we are not. I don't think that's positive.

[Hornet]

I think we may see at least 3 merc team ahead of us after qualifying, it's Merc's engine track. My only concern is can we be ahead of Red Bull.

[Majki2111]

Mercedes still not using 8th gear!!

[Majki2111]

Now Hamilton in 8th gear for the first time of the season finally but it was on the in lap

[Hornet]

Sky still complaining about Alonso's penalty too light in Spa

[ARUN M KARUNAN]

chaterham has a green indicator light at back other than red

[Black Adder]

and Sky still going on about the Hamilton/Rosberg incident.... Hamilton fans: get over it - it was a race incident!!

[Cemz85]

Any screens of Mercedes too speed?

[PURE PASSION]

Some top speeds: HAM: 331, BUT: 336, ROS: 334, ALO: 336, MAG: 333, RAI: 333, PER: 332

The record dates back to 2005 when Raikkonen with McLaren Mercedes driven by the V10 3-liter, straight finish at the bottom, just before braking for the first variant, touched 370.1 km/h. Never until and since that time a F1 had gone so fast in the straight...

[Senna4Ever]

wow ... thats what I call a gap ...
Merc again far out of reach ...

just for technical noobs: if we're on the same top speed level like Merc ... and we are confident that the Aero package of our car is that good ... where do we loose this gap of time then? Is it the lack of how we get the power on tarmac

Our aero is not as good as theirs. If we really have the same top speed, it means we have sacrificed more aero, then them. Also we may be struggling in mechanical areas.

I think the teams have tune down their engines. The circuit is heavy on the engine, and there's no reason for them to stress the engine on Friday.

[Cemz85]

So much for toto Wolff saying a while back the might hit 380 kmh

[Alessandra]

Sky still complaining about Alonso's penalty too light in Spa

As long as Fer's not getting a hefty penalty didn't make Hamilton "wear his heart on his sleeve".
I can't bear it when that happens

[F1Jan]

Typical Sky!

Typical indeed

[F1Jan]

Wish the whole Rosberg Hamilton thing would do one - boring now

[fratelliferrari]

Let's go for FP2! I really wanted I was there right now! What a great track and atmosphere!

[LivingHitokiri]

Forza Ferrari, hoping for a great weekend.

[Hornet]

The graphics shows Alonso used 5 Engine and Control Unit? Is that is the limit already
