My pecking order after the first race
Mercedes
Red Bull(+0.9s)
McLaren(+1.1s)
Williams(1.3s)
Ferrari(1.6s)
All the following cars are 2.0s and even much more down pace wise
Toro Rosso
Sauber.
Lotus
Caterham
Marussia
After the Malaysian GP some things will change.
Mercedes still first, but Red bull will find 0.9s/lap because they will run their engine unit on about 85-90%, soo almost full power. They were running on about 60% of power in Australia, they were 1s/per lap slower then the Mercedes, on my calculation however 10% of power is worth about 0.3 per lap.
Williams and Ferrari will close the gap to Ferrari.
Other cars will struggle, Lotus will find about 1 second on the competition.
Qualy
1. Red bull
2. Mercedes
3. Mclaren
4. Ferrari
5. Williams with better race pace then Ferrari
Cheers guys...
I thought RB were running with 100% power.
