German Grand Prix 2013 - Race thread

[Greig]

But that way Ferrari gave up on the opportunity to controll/affect pit stops of others.

Or we decided, hey we have good race pace if we do this right we can get both cars on the podium, rather than thinking oh how can we stop the others to help Fernando?

I am glad to see we are going racing today and not running one car as a road block.

[Greig]

Just saw FM leaving the pits with YELLOW tires?!??

They go to grid on old tyres, then put on the ones they used in qualifying.

[stefa]

Yes. There is Yellow tire on Ferrari cars

[Nero Horse]

First let's get safely through the first corner and then see where we stand. I think it's going to be one helluva exciting race! And hopefully everything works out as it should for us.

FORZA FERRARI!!!!!!!!

Ahhh. Didn't know that is allowed...

[Hornet]

Strangely, Horner told Sky that Ferrari is expected to be at the front in the early part?

Don't take him seriously though

[wacc]

Jenson did not want to say which tyres he is starting on. But it should be primes. He was surprised that both Ferraris went for the same strategy.

Well he is probably right, as they will need to pit very early.

[Paulo Goncalves]

Yes, for me was Massa with softs.

I'm not sure if it's correct use the same strategy with both cars...

[Paulo Goncalves]

Will change for sure at start line.
