Formula 1 - 2015

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.

Ferrari!

Hamilton/Rosberg/Mercedes

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!

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

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

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

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've got both the NASCAR and Indycar race on. The former has been really good so far. ~49 laps to go.

what a race weekend!!!

finally we have a winner which is not in Silver colour!!!!


I have nothing against Mercedes because they've been struggling for so many years and it is their credits to have such a good car and good drivers!!

but to have someone to give them some challenges is icing on the cake for F1!!!!


I remember Toto have said after the Austrilian grand prix that mercedes could pull a bigger gap in Malaysian grand prix.

And today we saw another team just beat them fair & square!!!!


regardless it is because of the speed of the car or the pit strategy, ferrari beat them as a whole, car speed, driver and pit strategy, it's team work!!!


I'm never a fan of Vettel, especially his "yes yes yes wow woooooo" after winning a race, it's very annoying.


but today I am feeling happy for him, and for ferrari (and I am not a fan of ferrari either)

because it is the reward of the hard work of a team and driver!


I really feel sorry for Raikkonen, he is overall the fast driver in this weekend, but because of a string of bad luck.... he can only finish 4th.

but hey, he started at 11th, dropped couple places at the opening lap, then dropped to dead last.... and come back to 4th, it couldn't be any better, consider those finished in front of him are at least the same level as him in the fastest car.


Really looking forward to the next race where the top four, Hamilton, Raikkonen, Roseberg and Vettel all fight together fair and square!!!
