Oh yeah, they definitely were conserving the engines, i would expect them to be quite aggressive this weekend. I have a very good feeling about this race, but maybe it's because i'm so excited to finally see a race in the last 3 weeks.

Aryton Sennas record is in our hearts, thats the most prestigious record he left behind-and the most valuable. Amen.


P.S. Yes you heard it from this Tifosi.

He will win, everyone thought MS was light in Bahrain and look at him... i remember a few members here were saying he was in 3 stopper and lighter then Fonzi, he pitted one lap earlier then Fonzi and thats because of the stupid FIA!

Miami, you are aware that Ferrari have:
A new B spec engine
New front and rear suspension
New defuser
New Aero package
New tyres

......the whole car was basicly redesign...Ferrari didnt unleash the 'true' 248 untill Imola.. that was the INITIAL plan...Oh well your not a Tifosi, therefore you do not follow the Scuderia as closly as i do- i dont blame you.

mcalrens screwed up their laps it seems, so i cant assume they are doing a one-stop strategy with more feul than the others, i dont know what to expect...

hopefully button will crash on the first corner and get out of the way.. if he doesnt, then schumi is gonna get an enormous lead on everyone

Whenever Ferrari are fast = cheating eh ? It's always like that ....anyways the new Diffuser is SHOWING its true colors!! WOOT! Its suppose to produce a thrust for better acceleration from 0-100 kph and at top speed its suppose to undo itself, meaning not produce downforce on the straights- so we can get higher top speed- which has shown in Imola! Look at Ferraris trap speed BAHAHAHA super faster then everyone elses! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!! FERRARI WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OH I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A REAL WIN FOR A LONG LONG LONG LONG TIME!!!!

the diffuser has been one of the biggest concerns in Ferrari since 2005, the way the new Italian designer (2005) design the F2005 due to the new restrictions- the diffuser was a huge NO NO now that Rory is back-we are gona go back on top baby!!!
