Would be amazing if they did that.
They would surely have gone back to their wind tunnel to try out the new aero dynamic parts.

Mclaren have been very consistent indeed...
Ferrari will need to do a 1-2 hat-trick with Lewis being able to win the championship finishing 2nd in the remaining races! |

That is what their technical head has demanded.
1-2 hat-trick finish.

I just have to say that the GP was amazing as a specticle. The track and city was amazing to look at. We need more tracks at night and more in the city. |

Can't wait to see a wet race at Singapore, think of how many areas of low traction and bumps there are, I think the attrition rate will be very high but it will be a very exciting race.

Yeah, it was a superb effort by Singapore... Seeing the track with the city back drop was fantastic... |

It would have been surely a 1-2 finish for them if that mess did not happen.
KIMI was closing in on Lewis at about .5 to 1 second each lap.

He may not have sat on pole position since Magny-Cours, and he may not have won a race now since the Spanish Grand Prix in Barcelona all the way back in April, but Kimi Raikkonen is officially the fastest man in Formula 1 in 2008.
After crashing out of fifth place in the closing stages of the inaugural Singapore Grand Prix night race last weekend, the Finn all-but kissed a terminal goodbye to his hopes of defending his hard-won drivers' crown from last year, as he heads into the final three events on the calendar trailing McLaren-Mercedes' rival and F1 World Championship leader Lewis Hamilton by 27 points in the title standings, and his own Ferrari team-mate Felipe Massa by 20.
Nonetheless, in setting his tenth fastest lap in 15 grands prix this year under the spotlights of the Far Eastern city-state, the 28-year-old equalled both his own record with McLaren in 2005 and Michael Schumacher's 2004 tally with the Scuderia – and now all he needs is one more fastest lap before season's end to make the achievement his own.
Raikkonen's fastest laps to-date this year have come in Spain, Turkey, Monaco, Canada, France, Britain, Hungary, Belgium, Italy and Singapore. The other five have been shared out between Heikki Kovalainen, Nick Heidfeld (two apiece) and Massa (one).
However, the 17-time grand prix winner's one-lap pace in the races has been somewhat at odds with his qualifying form in 2008, managing just two pole positions to Massa's five, with an average starting spot of 4.8 to the Brazilian's 2.9, as the list below details.
Top ten average qualifying positions in 2008 up to and including Singapore Grand Prix:
1. Felipe Massa 2.8
2. Lewis Hamilton 3.2
3. Heikki Kovalainen 3.8
4. Kimi Raikkonen 4.8
5. Robert Kubica 5.2
6. Fernando Alonso 7.6
7. Jarno Trulli 8.2
8. Mark Webber 8.6
9. Nick Heidfeld 8.7
10. Timo Glock 10.9

yep,he has equaled the fastest lap record ad this is the second time!
He very well may break it considering there's three more races and ferrari is really quick.
