VetteIfan 0 Posted April 17, 2015 Ferrari's pace on the soft tyre with race fuel is too good to be true. The Merc's must have been running with quite a bit more fuel... or Rosberg was just really slow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jiggy 5 Posted April 18, 2015 Mercedes might be in trouble. Going on a limp here and say that Ferrari has a real shot at winning this race. Only thing that worries me, is their hard tyre-pace. Red Bull's race pace seems to be alright too. Toro Rosso's however is not. I don't expect points from Verstappen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hughesy 254 Posted April 18, 2015 If they could get on top of the reliability then they could really make huge strides forward :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No point having speed if you can't even complete a lap though. They aren't aiming at those teams, just beating Renault is good progress. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VetteIfan 0 Posted April 18, 2015 That must be the first time since the start of 2014 that a Mercedes has been beaten in the dry in qualifying (excluding failures etc). If Vettel shows anything like the pace he had in the race runs on Friday, he honestly has a chance at winning this. Rosberg pretty dismal though. No matter who is in the opposite car, a 6 tenth gap is really bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd like to see a side by side Hamilton and Rosberg quali lap EDIT: They were beaten at Austria in 2014 by Williams Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
