    The discussion on sky was that the shark fin and the t wing would be removed by team on low downforce tracks.

    The shark fin for me looked counter productive in places. it seems to be a big old sail pushing cars off line for me.

    I think mercs will not run it. we will see.

    I think this one is the next big indicator. If ferrari can live with mercs here as well in the race its going to be huge for the season.

    Will the Honda get to the end of a straight?

    Merc teams should really do well here but for me that works Ferrari is a very good PU.

    Apparently there was 5 overtakes (outside of the first lap) in total. 2 of those were on the limping Alonso at the end.
