Things such as, the classification of yesterday was a mirage in the light of the outcome of today. The pace of Fernando Alonso had nothing to do about the Red Bull and the McLarens. At the Circuit de Catalunya there was nothing to scratch today Sunday. The Ferrari suffered as nice with the hard Pirelli.
By far the Spanish I gave everything and raise walls, as commented Pedro de la Rosa on laSexta, the 150 ° Italy Ferrari went through as alma en pena with the hard compound. The Spanish came rolling almost 2 seconds slower than his main rivals. A world in formula one. Such was the distance with the head that Fernando Alonso finished folded by Sebastian Vettel and Lewis Hamilton. A fact inadmissible if you want to fight for the world.
The output was of those who create fans. The Spanish came out as a shot and you picked up the slipstream to Mark Webber immediately. He stuck with Lewis Hamilton on his left and managed to exceed it. His goal was Sebastian Vettel. In a masterful maneuver, was opened to the right and crept down where there was no hole. The result was that he could face the first corner in the lead. From there everything was going to go downhill.
With soft 150 ? Italy Ferrari pace was decent. I'm not saying similar to the Red Bull kb7 and the of the McLaren MP4-26, but yes it might have allowed aspire to something more than the fifth place he held at the end. The problem came with the hard. The single-seat red was up to 2 seconds slower than his rivals with the same compound. In conclusion, lost a world with them. So much so that it eventually folded by Vettel and Hamilton.
Felipe Massa better not talk. The Brazilian with careers like this is digging its own grave. What is certain is that the true measure of the Ferrari 150 ? Italy gives it more Massa to Alonso. Those who believe that the single-seat Italian is ready to fight for the WINS are very wrong. The podium is the maximum that can aim at the moment. Insufficient if you want to fight for the world.
The Spanish today did everything he could and more at the Circuit de Catalunya. In the light of what has happened in the test the Scuderia is to put the batteries already. Especially with the new hard compound of Pirelli. As much that Fernando Alonso appear crap, is that there are and have to adapt. But, this 2011 will be a long journey through the desert.
