i understand all the talk about cost cutting etc but at the same time, this is F1, the pinnacle, the place where you would expect high performance and high technology... it doesn't seem right...

Its not exactly 5 litre iron blocks they're using mate. I doubt you'll be able to notice any difference.
As for whoever said that McLaren and red don't go together - :stongue: :stongue:
I think you need to check your history.
I'm gonna miss Bahrain and Malaysia as I'm gonna be away on holidays:( . Gonna have to hope my video recorder works and I can watch them when once I get back. So I'm gona be 2 weeks behind right from the start:whip: |

red bull and toro rosso liveries being presented today, the later expected with much anticipation as they've promised something radical
bahrain is this weekend! hopefully my pessimistic feeling that renault will beat all the opposition by a big margin won't turn out right. |

i think they'll be strong too.
it's hard to predict which team is going to take second place though, as the pack seems to be very tight after Renault.
we'll just have to wait and see..
definitely looking forward to the first race. |

As usual, most top drivers didn't even bother putting a time, to save the engine for the sessions that matter.
Three interesting things to note here:
- Honda third driver (Davidson) not putting a time, either due to problems or lots of confidence
- fastest times already within a second of last years' (!!) - amazing considering engines have been downgraded from V10s to V8s
- Super Aguri settled as slowest team but amazingly not too far from the rest of the field - this is a team with 4 year old cars and 3 days of testing as a total of Formula 1 experience
Free Practice 2 starting in 15 mins time.. if only there was some internet live TV stream :\ |

- Looks like we'll have a Honda vs Ferrari vs Renault tomorrow. i'm still saying the french should be the quickest
- Liuzzi surprisingly super-fast, V10 advantage?
- Toyota times are absolutely awful
- Tiago Monteiro did a bloody good session there
- Kimi Raikkonen and Jarno Trulli had car failures. Looks like the McLarens will battle for about 4th row on the grid
- Rosberg and Webber didn't bother going out on track until the very last minutes. Their times look bad but Wurz being 3rd fastest indicates that Williams are good outsiders |
