but still Ferrari & Alonso did a fantastic job to take this advantage.

Whatever the result, 2010 has seen Ferrari find the right driver for the team and for the future.

Aren't you forgetting about Massa. If it wasn't for butt Monkey helping out, things might be different.

Massa is a Ferrari driver, he is included in the consideration that Ferrari did a fantastic job.

That's right Ferrari had a great weekend. Fortune smiled on them. :)

One of Alonso's eight engines has very low mileage, but has been unable to be used because it was replaced after qualifying at the Bahrain season opener.

The rules prevented Ferrari from re-deploying this engine for anything other than free practice sessions, after it was replaced in Bahrain as a precaution due to the F60 almost overheating.

Will this lump have been fitted with the valve seats that Ferrari got permission to do later in the season?

Let me try that again: :crazy: :s pinhead:

According to this article Ferrari will be able to use the engine that was only used in Bahrain practice in Abu Dhabi.
Will this lump have the valve upgrade that Ferrari got permission to do after that race weekend?

But because Abu Dhabi is the season finale, Alonso is allowed to use any engine in his allocation there, and the Bahrain qualifying unit is extremely low on mileage.

I suspect not... the FIA seals are applied before the engine is first used. I don't think an engine can be modified and re-homologated after that point.

In any case, if that engine hasn't been run for 8 months, will it still be in a usable state?
