Sad that in Australia we won't see a battle between Felipe and Kimi that I was waiting for... But Ferrari is clearly the car to beat and we probably will see some close racing in future.
Interesting to see, what can Felipe do from P16. He will probably go for a one-stopper. If nothing happens, he will probably score points, but how many? And might he be able to challenge even for podium?

Well, in the morning free practice Kimi was faster, so all these people who said that Kimi is hiding till real racing begins are probably right.

I don't think they can go for one stop. The harder of the two compounds selected for Melborne is the medium one. The softer is too soft to last 20 laps, and some teams detected graining on this compound in long stints. So going for one stop will force to a stint with the harder one of more than 35 laps.
Melbourne is very sensitive to fuel weight, so a car carrying so much would be too slow.
Apart from this, the difference in lap times from one compound to the other has been smaller than expected (less than .5 secs per lap), not enough to show a clear advantage in a busy track (starting from P16).
My bet is he will go for two stops, and the softer compound will be on the second stint (and maybe also on the first one).

From the past few years, I'm so used to Kimi leading then having a mechanical problem - I'm just praying that's over now he's left McLaren, hopefully he will win tomorrow.
It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.
