Ferrari has closed the gap to Mercedes in FP2. I'm excited for qualifying and the race.

I don't think they will be able to match Mercedes' race pace, but it's exciting that they are making strides.

For sure. We need the rest of the pack to step it up. Id like to see Williams and Red Bull more in the mix. This should be a better race than Melbourne was!

What an amazing Grand Prix! Wow!

WHAT A RACE :):happydance:

Those Ferraris have speeeed! Merc really ****** up on strategy. Hamilton had the pace to win but I believe the team underestimated Ferrari. That said, I think we're in for a four way fight assuming Raikkonen can get luck on his side.

Yes Kimi needs a break but now Vettel has the upper hand. Its going to be tough for him now. I see the team coalesce with Vettel. I will watch this one again! So much was goin on. Mercedes look truly shocked with Lauda and Toto basically saying they got beat straight up and it was not about a blown tire strategy.

It was a big part of it, though. I don't think Toto would want to admit it. Had Hamilton stayed out under the SC I think he'd have stood a much better chance of staying out in front of Vettel. I don't think anyone expected Ferrari to match Mercedes' long-run pace. The Ferrari looks like it's very good on tires, too.

Such a smooth chassis with a really stout engine is going to be a pain in Mercedes' butt this season.

Its about time Ferrari bring back the fight for supremacy.
It has been said if Ferrari is doing good in sales they do suck on the other hand at F1.

:rock: Ferrari!

:thumbsdown:Hamilton/Rosberg/Mercedes:thumbsdown:

As a new viewer/spectator of F1 I was losing interest very quickly seeing as there was no competition, but this is the first actual race that has got me excited again.

I hope Ferrari keeps it up in October for the USGS!

Glad the races are getting interesting. But, would rather prefer Kimi on the podium. Don't care too much for Seb.

I think you are right. And about four way race. We shall see in a couple of weeks if the Ferrari can pace or outpace Mercedes :driving:

Kimi deserved a podium spot for the way he drove that race after the first lap.

But I don't mind Vettel. I'm happy he got his first win quick; now it's all business. He's a good driver, and I like to root for good drivers. Nice to see some competition this year.

I've also been impressed with Verstapen. Young kid seems to be a decent driver. Both him and Sainz. Toro Rosso v Red Bull http://www.runemasterstudios.com/gra.../images/eh.gif

I hated Seb at Red Bull. It wasn't until he moved to Ferrari that I realized I really just hated Red Bull. It's kind of refreshing now that Ferrari doesn't seem like "the dark side" anymore.

I mean how can you hate this? These two are adorable.

I agree with you, Toto said after the race that strategy wasn't the issue, pace was it.
However if Hamilton stayed out under the SC probably we will taliking about another Hamilton win here.
However it's encouraging Ferrari huge step up during the winter, I imagine Fred must want to kill himself now with the move to Mc Laren.
If Ferrari is a championship contender this entire year, Kimi will need strong results ahead of Seb rather sooner than later otherwise the Team will make him #2 because Seb has the upper hand now, we can't forget that this is only his second race at Ferrari and he already won.
With this car this year will be probably kimi's last chance to try to clinch a second championship, he does not have many more years in F1.
However I'm looking forward to what starts to looks a great 2015 season.
