3 damn irritating races for Ferrari and I'm starting to look at the performances of both drivers, the battle for the update race and of course the sheer bad luck and I feel fairly sure now that Ferrari will not overcome Redbull and McLaren to win either the constructors or the drivers world championships this year.
Started well enough, but then it was the engine worries, couple of mistakes by Alonso, Massa clearly lacking in pace and the Ferrari car just seeming to be losing pretty badly in the development race compared to Mclaren, Redbull and even Reanult for a time.
Although the engine worries seem to have cleared up, they of course still could hit Ferrari later on.
Assuming Massa finds pace, and Alonso cuts out the mistakes (can't be bothered to write a sodden physiological essay on why this is happening. Would Ferrari really start to overhaul their two main rivels? Even at full stretch they'll probably lose points to at least one of McLaren and Redbull. It seems unlikely enough that Massa and Alonso would over come their "demons" in the first place, and even then would a flawless Massa and Alonso really pick up more points then Jenson, Hamilton, Vettel and Webber? That of course relies on a mistakes by Mclaren and Redbull combined with an increase in pace of the F10.
The former there seems unlikely enough, but compared to a McLaren team widely applauded for their development last year, to a Newy lead Red-bull team that caught Brawn last year and have been developing their blown diffusive from race one, can this new look team of Ferrari engineers where key positions are now held by "artificial" promotions after acclaimed engineers such as Brawn and Byrne left the team really do the job required by legions of history, professional pride and of course the Tifosi?
I don't think so, what about you?
