Its not doom and gloom but only Alonso seems capable of f being close to Red Bulls ..
Max set his fastest time on 7 laps old tyres and much ealier than other drivers...
1.1 LEC and 1.3 SAI on initial attempt definitely doesnt look good
Race pace looks smilar to Mercedes.
Doesnt make sense.
So with the upgrades .were even slower ???
FERRARI FOR EVER !!!!!!!
How the **** the performance drop so much just after 1 season ?
*** did those guys in the factory do in the winter ???
We came from the 1st - 2nd fastest car on track to 3rd - 4th fastest car in just a few months. Unbelievable
This track supposed to fit us way better then Bahrain.We even have some (minor) updates to unlock more performance from the car .AND we end up worse then the previous race !??!!!
FERRARI FOR EVER !!!!!!!
Seems we’re 4th in team order. Not to mention grid penalty. Look at cars with Ferrari PU’s, they’re at the bottom. The ‘God’ did leave a legacy. Mamma mia
Think some of you need to chill a bit and not assume just coz you're seeing the lap times!
Remember , we carrying a concern of which the electronics on Lecler's car poses some doubt. Saying that, they're probably evaluating parts and so forth.
It practise, so let them do what they need to do on the car............you don't judge on a first free practise what the entire weekend is going to be ??
Drive it like you stole it!
Ferrari didn't even turn up the engine for any of their runs, anyone with a common sense would notice it easily.
And as for AM, I didn't see Alonso threatening Charles, either during the qualifying or during the race, and if the engine holds out, he wouldn't be a problem for him here either.
Yes, Alonso did finish on the podium by overtaking Sainz. But Sainz is the slower one. No one would judge the true performance of the AM by focusing on Stroll's pace, the same logic should be applied to Ferrari as well.
Long run pace of Charles's looked really strong. Had no tyre wear at all. Shame for his penalty, starting from the back is always risky. He needs some luck here.
2022
Q3 Top Speeds
RB - 335
Fer - 327
Top Speeds difference to RB same compare to last year
Still lacking 8 km/h
Some divas here this afternoon eh
Not sure what you can derive from FP1, this is madness from grown ass Ferrari fans
It's only Friday practice, let's see what the race brings.
Maybe our good performance in the 1st WEC event at Sebring (the Ferrari 499H driven by Fuoco is on pole) will dogmatic a change in fortune for us.
Guys, it’s FP1, so we need to stay calm. But nevertheless, we still have to make big steps. All these reliability problems after last year, we should be further… it’s just the second race and we are talking about pu penalties…

May be that explains the exodus of employees,knowing that a lemon has been designed. VASUER putting on a brave face in reality what choice does he have.Eventually if this trend continues he will have to come clean and admit this year is a write off.Remember all that shines is not gold a spectacular launch ,which so far is looking dull.
.This race and 1 more will confirm the situation.
