Sebastian Vettel topped the times on the second day of testing at Circuit de Catalunya, Barcelona. His time set just on Pirelli's new ultra-softs before noon remained best as teams focused on longer runs in the afternoon.

Now that I actually watched the interview, i don't think he was referring to anyone in particular.f1316 wrote:Which other team, I wonder?
I'm imagining Williams but hoping TR.
I think Williams and Red Bull are going to be there in some races.Gerhardsa wrote:think Ros was referring to Force India.
I don't think anyone is going to be close to Merc judging from what we are seeing from them. Unless Vettel put that US tyre time with a full tank last week. Worrying

He is not lying!! If you look at what I posted earlier you could see he did only 3-4 laps on both medium and soft while Kimi did his fastest on his 6th lap then some cooldown laps and he pitted and came back (probably after some setup work) and was just 0.060 slower than his best time but that was maybe his 9th or 10th run on those medium tyres.f1316 wrote:Well, at least the Merc has finally had a reliability issue!
Rosberg has said that run from this morning was a proper quali sim - he might be lying, so you never know. But there are rumours Ferrari had 50kg on the US stints last week, plus that the engine isn't turned up, so we could still find out that they're as close as Rosberg is saying.
It's all speculation of course, but then, so is this whole thread.

According to Autosport
"21:29 No cool-down laps for Raikkonen, he's still pushing and posts a 1m26.5s on the third timed lap of this run on mediums."
"21:42 Raikkonen puts Ferrari on top after Verstappen and Rosberg post fastest times in quick succession
It's clear that Raikkonen was not running with low fuel or doing a Quali run as he was out the whole 13mins on medium tyres and according to "F1Today.net" he did not pit and was out the whole time even though I think Autosport posted his fastest time a couple of minutes late, it's safe to say he did this time on his 6th or 7th run and maybe 4-5 mins earlier then when Autosport posted it. Anyone know if Rosberg posted his fast time in first test on a low fuel run?
Rosberg also said last year in testing his 1.22,8 on softs wasn't a good time, as in he's certain other teams can beat it. The guy sandbags so much it's getting too obvious now.f1316 wrote:Rosberg has said that run from this morning was a proper quali sim - he might be lying, so you never know.
