Ferrari's prelude to the Shanghai GP. I guess the theme for this race is "closing the gap"

Action speaks louder than words. Lets hope that they do catch up in China. Bahrain was appalling to watch for Ferrari. They did say they have new parts for China so lets hope they mean something instead of insignificance

I agree with Liam!! LOVE the video; but, instead of putting out flashy "look what we're doing"
videos meant to impress sponsors and shareholders, let's get to it, boys!!

We're not supposed to be "insignificant" on the track, so let's impress where it counts!!!

Here's hoping Ferrari will turn over a new leaf in Shanghai!!

p.s. Everyone was worried about "having two roosters in one hen house"; but, if we don't
get a move on, the only "fireworks" will be in the boardroom as di Montezemolo explains
what's going on... or, actually, not going on!!

The new boss looking relaxed and ready for business and the job ahead of him.
It's a big job, so lets just hope for steady improvement that eventually leads to our being competitive at the pointy end.

The brilliant BBC/Sky media covering our new boss - no thought about impact, what he has to work on first, who did he meet and what are his priorities ...... none of that is anywhere near as important as their focus which is of course the ultra F1 important issue of sunglasses .....

My thoughts on this all important, critical issue ..... I think they look like updated versions of Enzo's sunglasses

Red Bull long runs look very good and their tire deg is clearly the best, well at least as far as I could see. I think we are not too far behind them in this area though.

Still a long way behind Merc who have not even come close to showing their real pace.

Relaxed? Uhmmm... more like he's ready to spit nails, I'd say!!

As long as he has those shades on, everything will be alright

They do make him look pretty cool, eh?

A really good and positive race for us. A significant step forward and a good way to start our new era under MM.

As I mentioned in the Nando thread, I thought it was a really neat gesture on his behalf to dedicate his podium to Stefano.

Also, anyone else with me in wanting Ferrari to pay serious attention to Daniel Ricciardo as a possible future driver for us? I mean, I guess I'm biased cause, like me, he's an Australian (we are both from the same town - Perth) of Italian heritage (both parents are Sicilian I believe).

How awesome if he proved good enough and available enough to drive for us. Even better if he could win a swag of titles

[sagi58]

I like Ricciardo!! He's got a great attitude and he seems to be maturing very nicely as a driver!!

Here's hoping that your wishes come true, Spanky!!
