As Vettel sets yet another ridiculously off the scale lap 7 tenths quicker than the next best, a certain team and driver aren't receiving an awful lot of notice (what's new).
Nico Rosberg in his Mercedes was just 2 tenths off McLaren and half a second up on Ferrari.
"When you start fourth, a podium is never out of the question. It's a bit optimistic, but why not?"
When his car is working Rosberg is pretty handy off the starts and given who he has ahead he has every chance of either keeping or improving on his position into turn one. The Mercedes has excellent straight line speed, Mercedes KERS system and arguably the best DRS. This together with a quick, hungry driver that will always have a go and can defend beautifully (although the hideousness that is DRS destroys that).
Why not? What do you think Mercedes with Rosberg can do tomorrow?
