HELSINKI (Reuters) - Formula One team Ferrari have set expectations high after strong performances in testing and could pay a heavy price if they disappoint in the season's opening race in Australia, according to retired double world champion Mika Hakkinen.

Ferrari failed to win a race last year, finishing third overall, and their last title was the 2008 constructors' championship.
