Front wing upgrade has transformed the season for Mercedes. Hopefully it will do the same for us as well. Car looking hooked up but it is very early days.

[elnano14]

We're mighty on the hard tyres

[racingbradley]

[PURE PASSION]

Not a good lap from Lec.

[PURE PASSION]

CL P1

[PURE PASSION]

We will not do many race laps.

[racingbradley]

It appears we will finish this practice in the dry. Not a bad start for Ferrari pleasing all the fans here (well nearly all)

[PURE PASSION]

Has anyone watch our (small) race pace??
And compare to the others?
I know it doesnt matter so much here, nevertheless it's good to be fast in race pace too.

Charles was fastest of the lot on hards by a good margin. Norris was faster overall by a tenth or two but he was on mediums.

[racingbradley]

It's the night time sessions that really show where we are so all eyes on FP2!
Only Charles, Lando & Carlos made it into 1.31s. We will see what FP2 shows.

[PURE PASSION]

Thank you all
So at least we are looking good.
We can fight

[jgonzalesm6]

Mclaren have to modify their flexible rear wing and "mini DRS" as requested by the FIA.

[paolo lalli]

A positive start from ferrari I will leave it at that.

[Schaun]

We only have FP1 and it was an excellent session for the two Ferrari drivers but I expect the times to be faster in FP2.

[elnano14]

The pace is mighty on mediums

[FerrariF60]

not bad on the soft tire
i think it will be tight in Q3 come quali

[PURE PASSION]

Aaahhh , Norris might be as fast as us !!

[FerrariF60]

Aaahhh , Norris might be as fast as us !!

it's only Free practice mate, Leclerc will blitz him come Q3

[PURE PASSION]

it's only Free practice mate, Leclerc will blitz him come Q3

I wish !!!
It's that Norris also lower the times big time.

[jgonzalesm6]

Saw that NEW Ferrari front wing and it's definitely a "Mclaren-esque" front wing where it flexes when loaded(as speed increases)

[PURE PASSION]

In his 2nd lap , he better his time but again behind Norris.

[FerrariF60]

i woudn't read too much in free practice times mate....engine modes are prolly down a bit, fuel load...etc, ect

[racingbradley]

Norris has hit the wall!

[racingbradley]

He has resurfaced with pretty little damage.

[racingbradley]

Charles has the fastest first and middle sectors, with Norris only quickest through the final sector.
