It's just too bad a podium slipped away and Vettel took more lead

I understand the bigger picture. I understand ALOT of fans expect Ferrari to dominate like 2000s, alot of fans started watching F1 then and supporting Ferrari still want those days and dont know what we went through before that. Be happy we got points. Be happy we had clean race and didnt have double DNF.

Still can fight again another day.

I want drastic actions from Luca when this championship is over. Cant take it anymore

**71dino** · 7th July 2013, 14:50

we will make improvements to the car or Vettel may be unstoppable at this point... its frustrating.

**tifosi1993** · 7th July 2013, 14:51

Another stellar performance from Fernando, well done.

**Golfsmith** · 7th July 2013, 14:51

Ferrari wont even have a competetive car in 2014,our drivers need to be changed they are to highly paid.

**Grillo** · 7th July 2013, 14:51

Championship's over for Ferrari&Alonso.

Looking forward to hearing new excuses in 2014.

It's the same car we had a week ago. Not seeing how we could have something new and expect any other reasoning. The car's slow and sadly enough not "slowish" that can be fixed with a few updates. We had two tracks now that should have suited us, so what can we expect elsewhere?

**theforce** · 7th July 2013, 14:52

Super drive from Fernando, shame about Felipe. Its not over yet fellas...easier to chase than to be chased.

**red power** · 7th July 2013, 14:52

cars as slow as a wet sunday mate. we don't need 4th's we need wins hey buddy.

**Nathan** · 7th July 2013, 14:52

The frustrating thing is that it seems we bring a raft of updates to the car every race, only to revert back to the old spec the next race. Not only this year, but the previous few years as well.

Thanks for your input. Do you actually support Ferrari or just winning?

**LongtimeFan** · 7th July 2013, 14:52

Gutted.. Really hoped to challenge for the win today.

Also sickened by RBR for screwing over Webber. RBR truly are a low and despicable team.

WDC is as good as over I think, unless we make huge progress in the next 1-2 races :(

**Rishu** · 7th July 2013, 14:52

Kimi looking like Brock Lesnar. Lol

**kiwifella** · 7th July 2013, 14:53

either way, championship over.........

Poor Fernando, what a waste of talent in an average car

I have to agree but its a pity to see that his car brick isnt even capable to overtake when pushing to the limit... he always looses time on corner exiting while heidis car can stay in the tail of the car in front.

**Senna4Ever** · 7th July 2013, 14:53

Too bad that gamble didn't worked out as harder tires didn't lost that much
what a pitty that we haven't been able to participate from DRS Zone when we needed it for direct competitors (GRJ, HAM).

So Vettel got his home vict (After Canada the next thing he can cross off from his to do list) and extended lead to us and everyone

Why does always have Webber the problems? Can't get it ...

so 3 weeks to work on car in right direction ... anything like happened in the time before Silverstone again then I would appreciate to work on 2014 as RBs won't loose their sense to build great, reliable and fast cars during summer ...

**mirafiori** · 7th July 2013, 14:53

Oh well that was the most we could of done today, what ever the strategy.

lol....as usual ferrari on TOP...roll on Hungary for another stellar performance by ferrari

**faloupas** · 7th July 2013, 14:54

If 34points become 50 or 60 after 1-2 races then the championship is over.Another lost year...it is clear after 9races that F138 is a good car but it is not a winner.It is a better version of F2012..it is too disappointing because the start of the year was good enough.

**vcs316** · 7th July 2013, 14:54

@InsideFerrari 3m
"Today we did not have the pace to fight with the guys in front" - said Domenicali - "A defensive race but now we have to look ahead"

Same old broken record. When will we have the pace Mr. Domenicali ??

**Golfsmith** · 7th July 2013, 14:54

Ferrari don't know how to make improvements to car to compete they are lost as usal.

It's not about domination. If you want to win championship, you have to keep taking points from your main competitor/s. The only time we managed it in the last 4 GP's was when Vetel did not finish. And we can't count on that. We don't have the speed to compete with them (Bulls). And as I don't see them slowing down their car (as they didn't in last 4 years) throughout the season, and us gaining a huge amount (as didn't managed it last 4 years), it really looks pretty bad.
