My option #4: Spain 2012. An unfortunate start to the season for Massa (Ferrari) and Schumacher (Mercedes) when they were in 17th-18th place in the WDC after the 5th (!) race of the season and they had only 4 pts between them
#F1 #Ferrari
My option #3: Monaco 2006. Ferrari started from the back row at the legendary track. Massa didn't participate in qualifying. Schumacher "tried to cheat", but a scandal ensued and he was disqualified and started from pit lane!
#F1 #Ferrari
My option #2: Malaysia 2010. Ferrari was unlucky with the rain, with Alonso and Massa knocked out of Q1 without improving their times due to the downpour. Lewis Hamilton (McLaren) was also eliminated along with them, which isn't as disappointing
#F1 #Ferrari
My option #1: In Great Britain 2014, Alonso and Raikkonen was in 19-20 places, this was one of the weakest qual in turbo-era
#F1 #Ferrari
Well, I got tired of the Mercedes era.
My favorite driver was first Jules, then Kimi, and now Charles
I also rooted for Alonso, Seb, and Carlos a little bit
As for favorite drivers, I like Hamilton. It's a shame it's 2021; I was supporting for Max more, but Lewis joined Ferrari and I'm confused
If I had a fan career, what would it look like? I've watched 255 races so far, and out of 240, I'm a Ferrari fan and 15, a Marussia fan (based on my avatar)
Also Brazil 2012, Singapore 2017 💔
I didn't expect anyone to answer me (about "🧐🧐🧐")
Well, yeah! I watched a couple races in 2011-13. I started watching regularly since 2014 and support for Ferrari (in autumn)
You're a seasoned fan, a true "veteran". I support Ferrari since 2014 🤝
Try me, I'm a Ferrari fan, I have the whole day ahead of me, starting with 2008 😜

Today Romain Grosjean turns 40! 🥳

Lewis was happy at the start of this year, but he was sad again in Suzuka. I can't speak for him
Okay, I didn't watch these races, and that's a shame. Of the ones I watched, I liked Hungary 2015 in F1 (an unusual choice), but I didn't watch the other series either
