Wonder what Alonso thinks about that?

I think that Ferrari is planning to save the 'good' engines for their aero improvements.  Why make a better car if the engine is going to be useless?  Might as well put the useless engine with the car that might not win anyway.  Otherwise the back half of the season is going to be a very long one.

If Alonso doesn't agree, he might find Kubica in his seat next year.

well Jericoke, according to the Ferrari engineers, they believe there is nothing wrong with those engines, so we'll just wait and see!!!

If there was nothing wrong with their engines at Bahrain.....Why did they decide to change them in the first place?

Better safe than sorry jumps to mind.

Or perhaps the problem was something they were allowed to fix.

Or most likely, they're just saying the right things:  an F1 driver needs to believe he's got the best car possible.

Like the one Alonso had at the Malaysian G.P....Too risky IMO.

I am inclined to agree with Jeri, F1 teams always play down their problems, it is part of their religion.  Don't let the other teams see weakness!

In four days time we will all know if their decision was the right one or not.....

It seems that the Bahrain Engine was not up the Shanghai Circuit. Was it?

Or, perhaps they just want to save their good engines for Europe!..
