Pre-Season 2018-2019 Winter testing and car launches

Every team he has raced for has stated how good he is at car feedback. Very precise yet concise, right to the point... Trust me... probably the best of the grid. That's why Ferrari kept him these last few years. That's also the reason they recruited him back. They ditched him cause he lost some of his raw speed due to age and can't keep up with Vettel. They dropped him because of his speed. Still pretty fast though.
Also, Why do you think Alfa grabbed him up when he came calling now that they want to move forward. To win popularity contest?

I've actually never heard that said about him but will take your word for it. I know he was ditched by Ferrari first time round though because they felt he wasn't doing enough to lead the team.
Also the McLaren boost button story is always quite funny and very Kimi.

Yes, and interference by Michael Schumacher, who wanted to assist his protege Massa. Ferrari realized their mistake when Massa got injured by that loose spring turned projectile. Suddenly things started working but it was too late. They've already employed Alonso

i think it will by F1 standards it cant be worse at some tracks looking at you catalunya. but if your expecting F2 ways of following. then you'll be disappointed. but they got rid of all the winglets. which was the main problem & disturbing majority of the airflow

We'll have to see what happens in testing, one of the key points to look out for. Teams will just find another way to get around the problem... and leave us disappointed again

no doubt thats the opening race of the season every season for me & probally why I enjoy the 2nd race more than the 1st. because every yr I naively think this is yr everything going to be great. were going to have close racing & title battle. but we end up with a terrible race like austraila last yr

Thank you Vintly. I feel right at home
Yes I am the same, every year I am there all full of anticipation hoping for great racing. After all these years you'd think we'd have learnt better by now wouldn't you?
But this year, with the new aero rules and everything, it just might be different..... I know, don't hold my breath.
From me too. However, a warning. I am a miserable old sod; I know because I am applying to renew my passport before these blue things come in when my wife saw my photo this morning and remarked that anyone with a face like that must be a miserable old sod.
Nice to have it confirmed by a higher authority Bill Boddy
