Curious as to why you put ferrari in front of RB. Any particular reason? If last year (and years before) is anything to go by, bahrain being heavy rear limited should suit RB far more then the ever traction struggling ferrari.beelsebob wrote: I expect something along the lines of:

The Ferrari struggling for traction is a fair point, but I do think the PU is going to dominate over the traction issues, and RB are not going to be able to capitalise on their chassis.Juzh wrote:Curious as to why you put ferrari in front of RB.

Uhm, you are aware that that the Ferrari PU is has as bad if not even worse problems that the Renault one right now right? Or are you assuming it will become significantly better with whatever new software they bring?beelsebob wrote:The Ferrari struggling for traction is a fair point, but I do think the PU is going to dominate over the traction issues, and RB are not going to be able to capitalise on their chassis.Juzh wrote:Curious as to why you put ferrari in front of RB.

Alonso confirmed that won't have updates before China.TheGkbrk wrote:I do think that Red Bull will be slower as well however their good traction may help them a bit. For Ferrari, they may be a bit closer to the front. If their suggested updates work that will be even better. So Merc dominate, RBR-Fer-Wil close fight for podium.
Williams certainly, but I doubt McLaren will be strong here.willmesquita wrote:Alonso confirmed that won't have updates before China.TheGkbrk wrote:I do think that Red Bull will be slower as well however their good traction may help them a bit.

I don't know why everyone has faith in Ferrari at Sakhir...from my perspective Williams / Mclaren and Hulk will be very strong this weekend, even more than Alonso and Kimi.
Don't forget they did dominate the last 2 races here though - and in 2012 that RB8 wasn't dominant at that stage in the seasonbeelsebob wrote:Bahrain as a circuit will not suit their car, so I expect them to be further away.
Yes, yes, yes...Ferrari has of course the worst problems.
