Ferrari 🙏

It’s got to be incredibly tough—you walk away from Ferkan because you're convinced they won't give you a competitive car, and then what? You end up with a promising McLaren-Honda that just hits a DNF, while Ferrari takes the win.🤦

steelmaker83 said:If you look at how Mercedes and Williams compared last season, it’s obvious that Mercedes has made real progress with their car. But then you have Ferrari. They went from having an uncontrollable, weak power unit and chassis last year—one that absolutely shredded its tires during races—to whatever this sudden transformation is today. Only God knows what happened.

And Bernie Ecclestone

Keep telling yourself that ☕

Do you really think it's just a coincidence that Bernie handed them an extra $100 million, swapped out half the crew, and brought in Sebastian Vettel?

Ashley Ramirez4 said:I was also thinking yesterday about why the Germans were running mediums in Q1 while Ferrari went with Hards.

It seems like Ferrari has finally reached the point where—if they actually want to win on these hot tracks—Mercedes has to step up and perform properly, but honestly, both teams have been pretty messy with their strategy over the last two days.

And interestingly, according to what Ferrari's been saying in their announcements, this is their strongest engine yet. That’s gotta be pretty worrying for the Mercedes crew.

If that turns out to be true, they seriously deserve a monument built in their honor.

I honestly can't help but wonder what's actually going through Alonso's head right now...

Drew Bennett68 said:Oh, absolutely. The narrative about the dominant machine coming out of Maranello will start any second now.

It might not be totally dominant just yet, but you have to look at what Kimi managed to pull off—he actually finished ahead of his "rivals" over at Williams👍

When Red Bull was taking the wins last year, those folks over in Germany were actually pretty chill about it—really showed some class and embraced the competitive spirit, so much respect there—they just took their shot and moved on, but today, this whole sense of frustration is just 🙏

The way Sam Lucien is visibly losing his cool says everything you need to know ☕

Jerry Rogers6 said:It’s about time Jordan finally managed to wake up Kimi Raikkonen😁

Honestly, Kimi had an absolutely fantastic race today 👍

Thanks so much, truly fantastic news—Ferrari is Back! Let's go, Ferrari! 🙏🙏🙏

darkmarlin16 said:It's the exact same deal with English, so here we go again, typing away in English.

Honestly, by 2015, it feels like pretty much everyone understands English anyway.

darkmarlin16 said:Just because you're being a total moron doesn't mean everyone else is too. ☕

Just because you happen to know someone from America doesn't mean everyone does—and those who don't aren't necessarily ignorant.

Kimi, what's going on with you? 😲 👏👏👏

EDIT: Kimi was only +0.373 on both FP sessions—haha!

I was rewatching the 2004 Malaysian Grand Prix the other day, and man, looking back makes these modern cars feel incredibly sluggish—it's almost like they're running twenty seconds slower than the old ones, rather than just six.

Seriously, Bernie, give us a break! We want twin turbos, unrestricted fuel flow, engines screaming past 15,000 RPM, and actually decent aerodynamics. 🎉🎉

analogpilot16 said:Around here, everyone seems to have an issue with who someone else is rooting for.

I can't help but think things would be much better if they were. 👍

Oh man, darkmarlin16, I am seriously feeling the tension here 😁

This brave little Ferrari team is really trying to 👍 something unexpected

Lock it down, baby! 👍

Let's hope things get just as wild as they did back in 2001. 👏👏👏

You really just need to dig through the very first threads in this PDF—scroll back to somewhere around 2002 or 2003... You'll find all those old complaints about how drivers can't handle anything without Traction Control, or how the cars have basically become nothing more than computers on wheels. It’s funny, really—the same endless whining, just repackaged for a new era. Nowadays, people are constantly mourning the 2003 season, claiming the cars were faster and the drivers were much more skilled back then. But if you look even further back, they were saying the exact same thing about 2003 in the decade prior, and before that, they were obsessed with 1993 because Williams was dominating everyone with their advanced computer systems and active suspension... honestly, what can you even say? The dogs bark, but the caravan keeps moving. 😁

Lewis Hamilton is absolutely killing it! 🤣
