Ferrari needs some good luck!
We already have been lucky in that Vettel didn't break the gearbox or something when he spun. Rain or not, they must deliver.
This is the race that could determine the final outcome. Right now they are faster than Merc. That may not last the rest of the year.

I knew you were being sarcastic. It's just amazing how some jump on the "halo-saved-his-life" bandwagon comparing this incident with last weeks incident.
In Honda news, Honda has apparently been spending like crazy to get a good engine build for next year. Max claimed earlier this week that he doesn't expect anything before 2020, but Honda is apparently testing engines simultaneously at 3 different locations worldwide (?!) in order to get something halfway decent by Australia next year. Budget larger than Renaults entire engine + running the team budget!
You know... I was get nervous when things are supposed to go Ferrari’s way. Every time we should win... Lewis comes off smelling like a rose.
It makes you Wonder why it took all these years for Honda to realise they needed to invest massively to succeed in F1. You cannot enter F1 on a shoestring, and that's my worry about Renault: I don't think they intent to spend that much.
Mistakes can ruin a plan as we’ve seen too often this season, but Ferrari seems to be the only thing that can stop them this weekend. Faster over a single lap by .25 (ish) and .5 secs per lap faster in race trim. Things can change from session to session, but this looks like a continuation of last week.
Yeah an "insider" talked about this earlier this year saying they only started leaving engines on dynos 24/7 recently, meanwhile Merc has been doing this since 2013, good luck catching up.
