So, snowy, what do you think the order looks like?
Pre-Season BARCELONA TEST 18th-21st Feb 2011
- Thread starter snowy
- Start date
It does look like McLaren are particularly poor.
But no flow-vis paint, so its not that bad!

That must where McLaren are going wrong! If they concentrated on the aerodynamics of their F1 car, instead of worrying about the flow affects on international shipping, they may be more successful..
Is this where DHL step into the breach?
It's too early to judge McLaren, according to Jenson.
And, are Ferrari doing OK? Well, Fernando said; "There is completely zero information about what the others are doing so we are not to worry".

With the number of unknowns, whether they are known unknowns or unknown unknowns, who's to know what's going on...

At one point during testing today my heart was lifted, Jenson had just started what was to be his penultimate run and Sebastian was into his race simulation, circulating on his second set of tyres. Jenson's times were mirroring Sebastian's, there was nothing in it. And had Jenson continued and completed a race simulation I would have been in no doubt as to the competitiveness of the McLaren. Unfortunately he stopped after 15 laps and retired to the garage. If he had a full tank of fuel and the soft tyre on that run then the McLaren is actually quite a nifty car. You never know, if they can get some reliability tomorrow there is one guy who isn't going to hang about wondering how fast the MP4-26 is. Come on Lewis! Laps out for the lads!

but theres invisable flow-viz now, so we'll never know
Oh and can somebody explain to me why Lotus were running Ricardo Teixeira??!!. would of thought running your Gp drivers getting them used to the car, doing the devlopment work, trying to gain that few extra tenths before the start of the season would be of utmost importance, rather then running an 28 year old rookie who's only driven an F1 car once

yeah, sort of thoughts so, cannot help thinking though in the long run whats gunna raise more money?
A few extra quid from running an pay-test driver, or getting a bit of extra devlopment work in, more feedback from two experienced half decent F1 drivers gaining a tenth here n there, and eventually getting a point from that and the rest of the work that will be done
