Pre-Season JEREZ TEST 10th-14th Feb 2011

Morning Chasz.Yes the old boy is on fire today.Bit later today with higher temps we will see these times improved on.
My guess is low 1.19's or even a high 1.18.

So does anyone think that Mclaren are sandbagging, a bit like they did in 2009? :s

Yes indeed, I can see the flood waters rising. And for once Lewis Hamilton is speechless, not a word for two days now.
 
Completes another lap!

very slowly though...


... and another but a little quicker this time!

and another one a bit slower...

I'm on tenter hooks...
 
This is gold dust:

Someone (admittedly a fervent anti-Whitmarsh Hamilton fan) has posted on 606 that the word at the track is that the Mclaren overheats and has exhaust, speed and tyre issues.
I know it's only testing, but it is still concerning [edit: at least for mclaren supporters] that they have had so few laps of running and that so far today only the Lotus is slower.

If this is the case then McLaren's hit and miss with car designs continues. Personally I think they could have won in 2010 if they hadn't pointlessly kept developing in 2009. Still a few weeks left to move the exhaust about some more

. Anyone else done runs on the Supersoft, and what's the news on the weather?
 
Let's assume Jenson didn't have a red flag interruption and completed a 19 lap run

EDIT: This may have been a little more than presumptuous as Jenson's next outing was a scheduled 10 lap run.
