If Ferrari were at the front in Mercedes position, I'd bet the boot would be on the other foot!

With a lot of fans; there's often a lot of sour grapes when their favourite team/driver isn't doing well!

Absolutely! And, I have no problem admitting I want Ferrari doing MUCH better than any other team.
However, bear in mind it's not just the Ferrari fans who could be accused of having a sour grapes attitude
last year when it was Red Bull and Vettel driving off into the distance. In fact, I'm pretty sure there were
more than just one Mercedes fan sharing a case or two! :P


Nope. I was patiently waiting for this year when Monster Mercedes would be monstering the field to pieces. No complaints last year at all (you can check my posts), I thought they overachieved to be honest. :)

I'm not suggesting that it's specifically Ferrari fans; I saying that it works all ways... but in this case it is Ferrari fans!

And I'm certain I recall a Ferrari fan or two doing that as well. Damn those tire changes ruined our championship bid. The best way Ferrari can boost the excitement they claim lacking is to build a better car, not reformulate the formula.

And, it did ruin Ferrari's bid at the titles.
And, they will build a better car and, they will improve this one!
And, we will make as much noise as Mercedes fans are, at the moment!
Actually, more!! :twisted:
