i know, me too....i am so pumped
but i promised myself NOT to get carried away with lap times....it's ONLY testing and laptimes mean nothing as everyone is on different programs, fuel loads....etc

the MOST important thing is that we rack up a LOT of miles and that we're reliable

Forza Ferrari

[FerrariF60]

will this be aired by sky f1??

if so, does anyone have any free links?? so i can watch some of it throughout by busy work schedule....ha, ha...

[Greig]

Yeah it's on Sky.

Might need a VPN to access. (UK)

[Rishu]

F1 TV also broadcasting live. Not sure what Ted is doing on F1 TV, has he quit Sky F1?

He is still on Sky.

It looks like the car is a little bit rough / stiff

Somewhat understandable considering the new suspension change this year

Hopefully they can optimize it better from now

[elnano14]

Red Bull looks on rail (minus that Lawson's spin)

Alonso seems happy with the car

And god knows what the hell McLaren is cooking with their car

[GoodtimesF1]

How are we looking so far? I know it's only the first day but maybe an expert can shed some light on how we look in terms of balance.

Dutch commentators now saying we're to slow on the long runs being in the 36s while we should be in the 34s accoording to them.

Of course they know our program, fuel loads, engine mappings etc

[Rishu]

He is still on Sky.

Maybe some joint broadcast, I see Bernie Collins also part of F1 TV

So we are 2 seconds slower 🤣

[Alonsomaniac]

So we are 2 seconds slower ��

Let's wait and see what Charles does. That's a better indication.

Nothing to read, almost certain they run different programs.

[PURE PASSION]

Merc are eager to put fast laps, or they are genuinely fast?
We are not showing something special.
I know it's testing but it's just 3 days.
Not talking about the fastest lap but something like Ves who did 1:31:4 on C2 and then a 10lap stint.

[PURE PASSION]

And then Lec P1 1:30:878 C3

[Alonsomaniac]

Leclerc did one fast lap. We are not slow as it seems. (which won't say we are actually fast)

[Greig]

Red flagged due to power cut.

[Alonsomaniac]

Leclerc saw his name on top and pulled the plug out. You naughty boy............

ha, ha....that's too funny...well actually not, hopefully NOTHING too serious
