If Ferrari were doing something to quick fill the car why didn't they do it at the first stop? If memory serves Raikkonen and Alonso pitted on the same lap for the first stop so Ferrari should have used this "quick fill" system to get the Finn ahead of the Spaniard so that he wouldn't have spent the next stint looking at the Renault's gearbox.
Forza Ferrari!!

Is there a pit time chart in the FIA pages? Räikkönen was missing for some reason from the formula1.com charts, comparing Massa to Alonso, they seemed to spend about the same time on the pits.

I think Kimi was doing the right thing to drive safely to save more fuel while was behind Alonso, as all of his effort to overtake the spaniard failed, although it was obvious he drove a faster car.

I think likelyhood is Kimi was saving quite a bit of fuel, he wasn't all over Alonso, you got impression he was just waiting for Alonso to stop.
But at same time, he made a mistake on his in-lap costing approx 0.8s, surely if he had been saving fuel, he'd have kept on going? Not pit the lap right after with risk of not getting infront of Alonso.
I dunno, its just confusing how they done it.

there is a lot of bs you could say but i am sure all refuelling rigs will be checked after the fires in the pit stops
maybe it is just a case of Kimi starting the race with more fuel and not wasting it stuck behind a slow Renault.VERSTAPPEN: ‘If I’d let Sainz past, dad would’ve kicked me in the nuts!’

Easiest explanation is usually the most obvious one.
