Ferrari F1 team principal Maurizio Arrivabene and star driver Sebastian Vettel insist they can handle the pressure from Ferrari president Sergio Marchionne. Arrivabene went as far as saying he doesn't expect anything else from a president.

priority on new engine components isn't always positive. If team decides using the new engine components will be a risk and Lewis remains using the old components, then we'll have the whole Italian GP situation again like last season.SR71 wrote:Lewis getting priority on new engine components...

If he had a 50 point lead, they probably wouldn't care at all...SR71 wrote:Lewis getting priority on new engine components... Hilarious. How would the reaction of Lewis fans turn out if he was leading and Nico got priority?
Like they didn't care including Hamilton himself about made up strategy/car problems aka Rosberg being faster in Mexico, Brazil and Abu Dhabi, USA etc. '15?Just_a_fan wrote:If he had a 50 point lead, they probably wouldn't care at all...SR71 wrote:Lewis getting priority on new engine components...

.Always a risk taking on new components, Nico has had the same components for 4 races with 0 failures, I would try and hang on those as long as possible! Last season Mercedes did the first 6 races on the first batch.SR71 wrote:Lewis getting priority on new engine components... Hilarious.

Don´t know anything at the respect, but wouldn´t surprise me since she (Ada Colau) was an active member of anti-globalization, against the system and even pro-squatter movementssuperdowg316 wrote:I've seen some twitter reports from Spain stating that the mayor of Barcelona wants to get rid of the Formula One and MotoGP races for being "elitist".

It would be great, as Montmeló is a boring circuit for cars, not so much with bikes... but anyway visibility is terrible in general.Andres125sx wrote:Don´t know anything at the respect, but wouldn´t surprise me since she (Ada Colau) was an active member of anti-globalization, against the system and even pro-squatter movementssuperdowg316 wrote:I've seen some twitter reports from Spain stating that the mayor of Barcelona wants to get rid of the Formula One and MotoGP races for being "elitist".

I remember that Fisichella was doing OK on FI back in 09 and looked amateurish once he went to Ferrari.ME4ME wrote:So, FP1 done. Verstappen 2 thens off Ricciardo. Kvyat half a second down on Sainz.
Would be interesting to hear Verstappen and Kvyat's opinion regarding their new machinery and how it compares to their previous cars.
Edit: Thanks Bomber_pilot! Seems like Red Bull wanted to get rid of some hard tyres, while Ferrari is optimizing their soft tyre performance.
A FI is no Ferrari. A Red Bull and a Toro Rosso however... Put Verstappen in a Ferrari now and I don't think he would be as quick as Vettel tbh.Sevach wrote:I remember that Fisichella was doing OK on FI back in 09 and looked amateurish once he went to Ferrari.ME4ME wrote:So, FP1 done.
