    I've said it before and I'll say it again for the terminally dumb, Vettel has to go !!!

    IF, Ferrari had any sense they would have just given Dan the seat and put LeClerc in the other and let him learn from Dan

    Vettel is the most un-German like German you will ever see !!

    He is overly emotional (and not in a good way) and can't handle pressure, makes stupid mistakes, thinks he knows more than a team that has been racing since the start of F1 (I don't buy for one minute that Ferrari just sit on the sideline taking guesses at their strategy)

    He has had the best car all year and done NOTHING with it !!

    Schumie would have sewn the WDC up by now with this car

    No - it's the whole team not 'clicking' which is causing the problems, not just one driver, strategist whatever. We've been down this road heaps of times before, just gotta be patient...

    Do you mean that we have to wait for Vettel to be replaced or has that started with Charlie in 2019 audtitioning for number one driver ?:)

    I think if Vettel had complete faith in the strategy calls and he concentrated on driving he would be doing better. Only Schumie could drive and formulate strategy as he drove. Vettel though good is not in the same league as Schumie.

    No, like I said, I don't think it's down to a single person, just seems to me that the team has not gelled. Have to wait and see if the new guy can be the catalyst for that happening or not...

    Can someone call Kimi and have him kamikaze into the side of Hamilton this weekend so Vettel can finally win a race. :D

    For some reason I always thought it was because of his penchant for wearing ridiculous glasses.




    And, because he’s a poof.

    Kimi is more likely to kamikaze into Vettel, unfortunately. Kimi has screwed up at least 2 races for Vettel this year, and cares not at all about it.

    Sebastian Vettel knows he really needs to win in Sochi this weekend - and on Friday he made the perfect start to his Russian Grand Prix weekend by topping opening practice from Red Bull’s Max Verstappen.

    VIEW FULL RESULTS

    Vettel – who trails Mercedes’ Lewis Hamilton by 40 points in the title race – was just 0.05s quicker than Verstappen, though neither Red Bull is likely to pose a threat here thanks to engine penalties that will drop them to the back of the grid.

    Mercedes kept their powder dry, opting not to run the quickest hypersoft tyre compound. Despite that Hamilton was only 0.33s behind Vettel in third, with team mate and former Sochi winner Valtteri Bottas fourth.

    Daniel Ricciardo was fifth, though the Australian completed only 11 laps before being consigned to the Red Bull garage after arriving with smoke emanating from the rear of his car. A floor change was scheduled, and the team are checking the gearbox.

    No one else could get within a second of Vettel’s leading pace, with Esteban Ocon in sixth for Force India, ahead of Kimi Raikkonen’s Ferrari. Kevin Magnussen – reconfirmed this morning for 2019 at Haas, along with team mate Romain Grosjean – was eighth, from Renault’s Nico Hulkenberg.

    There were no less than four Friday drivers in action, with both McLaren and Sauber choosing to give their 2019 race signings some track time. For the former, Lando Norris took Fernando Alonso’s MCL33 to 13th place, though the bad news for Alonso is that unscheduled changes to parts of his Renault power unit means he will start Sunday’s race from the back - along with the Red Bulls and Toro Rossos, who are also taking power unit-related grid drops.

    At Sauber, Antonio Giovinazzi was at the wheel in place of the man whose seat he takes for 2019, Marcus Ericsson. Giovinazzi, who has twice raced for the Swiss squad as a stand-in, acquitted himself very well indeed, the Italian finishing 10th fastest, four places up on his team mate for next season, Charles Leclerc.

    At Renault, F2 racer Artem Markelov got to sample his home circuit at the wheel of Carlos Sainz’s R.S.18. He took 15th place, two up on Nicholas Latifi, the Canadian making his third FP1 appearance of the year for Force India, this time in place of Sergio Perez.

    With the Sochi Autodrom used so rarely, grip was at a premium, with Norris and Williams’ Lance Stroll both surviving spins. Numerous drivers, including Hamilton, Bottas, Leclerc and Verstappen, also had off-track moments, but with no serious repercussions.

    The big questions ahead of FP2? What can Mercedes do on Pirelli’s fastest rubber? Does Ricciardo’s Red Bull have serious problems? And will Ferrari stay on top? Find out soon…
