F1 World 2016: Ferrari sentenced to win – The Republic

Rome – Condemned to win. For history, for the fans waiting anxiously for more than eight years, but especially for the presidential diktat because Marchionne, President of Ferrari, on the eve of this World Cup that starts Sunday in Australia was clear: “Alternative there are none , the red has to go back on top of the world, right from the first race, certainly after this season. ” It runs for three titles, the riders, chased more to Vettel by Raikkonen, the builders and the stock exchange, as the Ferrari listed needs to be successful, to ensure the best dividends. You point to the maximum and winter work seems to encourage the dreams, with Maranello who led the timesheets for seven days on the eight tests in Barcelona, ​​emphasizing speed over a single lap, a very good race pace and, after starting a bit ‘ stunted, almost no reliability problem.

the Ferrari there, like it, but the wall of desires is strained dall’incognita Mercedes, dominatrix in recent years and which could also erode the ambitions of 2016, as assures his spiritual guide Lauda, ​​an idol time of Maranello and now man image of the enemy. The Germans in the tests have been hidden, they did so deliberately, choosing to never use ultra soft tires, novelty of the season, tires that promote speed in the lap and greatly increase performance. Hamilton and Rosberg, almost arrogance, ignored the stopwatch, he never sought the paw is surprising, perhaps a symbol of secure superiority, only to declare in words of Ferrari very afraid, “because – they said both the two-time champion of English world that its German partner – we knew we approached a lot. “

Until now, Mercedes has played hide and hope that someone behind the Pre-tactical there is a bit ‘of fear , the fear of direct confrontation, the desire to compete seriously only since Friday in Australia, when the bluff will no longer be allowed. To see if the truth is this, or other very gettonata version, if the hide and seek was caused by the intention to annihilate not already before the debut the dreams of all the others, with the result to resurface the usual refrain of boredom announced due to the supremacy of the silver arrows, it just has to wait a few days. From Friday, the Italian night, will seriously and cheating you can not anymore. For the moment, the certainty is one, will still head to head between the Mercedes and Ferrari dreamer, because the Red Bull remains ballasted by the Renault engine because Williams has the Mercedes engine, but not its frame, and why other, beginning with the Toro Rosso Ferrari engine and Haas, the American debut with the technological support of Maranello, Modena engine and Dallara chassis, can only hope to pick up the crumbs.

all this in the middle than usual regulatory chaos, with the Russian roulette of new qualifications, elimination in the three rounds of the slowest pilots, “it can be only one” proposed by Ecclestone that pleases no one and that no one has ever tried before Australia, a leap of faith that it is unknown how the show will offer. But that certainly scares all the teams. Formula One hyper should have only certainties. And instead it continues to stumble more in regular holes that those present on the asphalt. With all due respect to a public that often runs away. Nostalgic of a tussle for the victory and a noise (now the engine is hybrid) that no longer exists.
