   Lovely! Incredible! VET teaching HAM how to drive in dry conditions. HAM couldn’t cope with the pressure VET put on him and messed up. Mercedes obviously have the car to fight for the PP.

      Wouldn’t his teammate be the one to put pressure on him? Him searching for that speed Bottas found surely is what has him overdriving the car.
      P.s. Grazie, ragazzi.

            You’re both wrong. Clearly, the FIA have made special tires for Ferrari, since their Italian pride has swollen up amidst accusations of trying to make a new Axis with Mercedes.

      Ferrari has a far better car this race weekend as they did last weekend. It’s up to Vettel to drop the ball again or capitalise.

      VET teaching HAM how to drive in dry conditions.

      Vettel would probably give great tips on how to throw away an easy race win by putting it in the barriers. I believe that’s a skill set Lewis hasn’t acquired yet.

         I’d like to believe that @mg1982 was being sarcastic. But a had a nice chuckle at your comment, nonetheless.

         No need to get nasty like that. Hamilton lost the 2007 championship by dropping the car on the gravel on pit entry in China. And there are other cases. All drivers make mistakes, if they didn’t they wouldn’t be driving aggressively enough to be in the sport.

            True, but remember that he spun due to being told to stay out with worn out tires.

         “Vettel would probably give great tips on how to throw away an easy race win by putting it in the barriers. I believe that’s a skill set Lewis hasn’t acquired yet.”
         Throughly disagree. Lewis Hamilton acquired that skill level at highest on Chinese GP 2007 by losing his championship.

   I’m a HAM fan but I’d love to see Vettel win this GP so keep the title challenge fully active!

   …..It’d also help my fantasy F1 team which took a plunge last week when I dropped HAM for VET!

      Champ is over. Ferrari 0.3 s faster on one middle straight. Spa and Monza will destroy Merc, and after that will be worst Merc track. Easy win for Vettel.

         I hope you aren’t right, but yeah I don’t think we need a HAM losing points if we want the championship going far into the season @thunder1115, @geekzilla9000; the ferrari does look like the strongest car for the foreseeable future (ie. here, Spa, Monza, and even Japan).

            They will be quick everywhere with their two batteries on pu and 38 hp extra power.

         Yeah, right… Let’s not exaggerate already. Ferrari has indeed the upper hand now, but only marginal, just like Mercedes had it last year… although many still kept saying the cars were equal right from the start of the season. Then, Mercedes seems to perform better in race trim. We shall see how reliable they are tho, and that comparison can only be made after the champ is over. Also, those 38-40HP more were mentioned as “up to”, so most likely they’ll make full use of that extra HP of the new-spec engine only in Q3, in every other session they’ll have like only 20HP more for sure.

            Vettel had new engine in Canada. That extra power not from new engine. Rai had new engine in Barcelona. They have tricks with two batteries, if i have source on English i give the link? but i do not have. Vet had much better long run in Friday, he start 1.21.1 Merc on ultras never break 1.22 but thanks rain quali.
