Fer could've gotten pole for sure! And he will be on a mission tomorrow. I think a podium is very much possible. He must get a good start and get a few cars at the start which we know is entirely possible. Let's hope there's no 1st corner incidents like Spa tomorrow.
Showing up in Melbourne with the sixth- or seventh-fastest car after a disastrous winter is a bit different than a simple broken suspension component that just happens to relegate the team's best driver, and championship leader, to tenth on the grid at Monza. Though the latter does call into question the team's gratuitous use of tape on the rear suspension.
It's just bad luck.
That said, starting tenth is far from the death sentence it's thus far been made out to be around here, and having a pesky driver starting ahead in third is an asset. Given Ferrari's typical, prodigious starts, Massa could very well be leading the race by the first corner, and it wouldn't surprise me at all to see Alonso up around fifth at the end of the first lap.
Good things are still possible. They'll be even sweeter if they happen, too.
