Vettel with softs 2 tenths behind Ricciardo who was on Ultrasofts. I don't want to get cocky but it's looking good.
And on race pace, i only saw 1 lap of Vet / Ves /Ric . Vet on softs done 1:17:6 and both RBRs on us did 1:18:2-3
FERRARI FOR EVER !!!!!!!
If it's a wet satuarday I hope the team is treating FP1 as friday and FP2 as saturday because they better get the dry setup right today. It's not looking too bad. The cars, what I could see, have good traction out of T2, T6 (especially these two), T8 and through the Sachskurve. It look fairly planted through the last corner as well. RBR seem good as well as they always seem to be able to come straight out of the box and be less affected by a difficult track than the others. It feels we're neck and neck with Merc and much closer than two years ago. Did we use the US at the end without pushing? They sure didn't show the Ferraris much in FP1.
New MGU-K & ES for both Ferrari's
New RW
@Gianludale27 : " During the first part of FP1, Seb tried a new package, with a new configuration of the wastegate pipes (now above the main exhaust) and a new rear wing (with a modified leading edge). Kimi used the old package"
It looks like that lower wastegate pipe doesn't go anywhere. Wonder if it does anything? Maybe by using just one they get a stronger air flow to the bottom of the wing?

Guess we aren't allowed to celebrate winning at a track which was dominated by one team for the past 4 years. Cool story Lewis.
Looks like its gonna be a wet quali :(
.25 down on ultras?? anyone has any info regarding this?
We seem to have a very consistent pace on Medium tyres, 1:18.1 to 1:18.6
Bottas doing the same times on Softs, we looked faster than Ham on US.
We did plenty of laps.

Long run pace (FP2)
Race-simulation averages. Ultra-soft: VET 1:18.198 (7 laps); HAM 18.311 (11); BOT 18.474 (9); RAI 18.619 (12). Medium: VET 18.247 (19); HAM 18.434 (12); Soft: BOT 18.422 (14); RAI 18.474 (10)
Usual Friday? Nothing to be worried?
After Bahrain I feel that I have a pretty good picture of where every front-runner package is going to be strong. But here at Hockenheim I have no clue so I'll leave the in-depth speculation alone this time. But the long run pace looks good, can't say it doesn't. But for to really benefit from the US I hope it's a little bit cooler on sunday. If it's as hot as today they will overheat. That makes it hard to choose the best tyre for Q3. If it rains tomorrow it should be cooler on race day. But if it rains tomorrow qualifying will be a lottery.
It's quite easy to predict, In Germany Mercedes and Ferrari will fight it out with Mercedes having a slight edge at the moment, Red Bull will fade away tomorrow. Red Bull will fight for 5th and 6th in Budapest with a Ferrari front row lockout.
Red Bull will be the best car in Singapore but Vettel will grab pole just like last year.
