    Ferrari look like they have a car this season.

    Sadly McLaren don't.

    I really like Bottas, but unfortunately I can't see him bothering Hamilton too much.

    McLaren look very poor, yet again!

    Ferrari do look good but have done in previous testing so not getting hopes up just yet.

    I'm also interested to see how Bottas gets on in the Mercedes as I'm a fan of his, agree that he won't trouble Lewis though.

    Still think Mercedes will be the ones to beat but hoping it might be a bit closer.

    Tend to agree. RBR will come on strong during the season. It'll be devastatingly disappointing if Ferrari turn up first race and are half a second down.

    He's Schofield, but they are 2 versions of the same name. As this is a really regional name, it is highly likely we share ancestors.

    P.s. I know you were joking, but I will never swerve the chance to preach. :)

    On the ITV Hub surely, as it was live on ITV. BBC only gave highlights I believe.

    Could be. I saw a "Six Nations - England vs Scotland" show that was longer than 80 minutes and assumed it was the match. Might be highlights I suppose.

    Elise Christie wins 3 golds at Speed Skating World Championship: 1500 m, 1000 m and overall. Not a sport that has a following in this country, but good to see what hard work can bring. She is a Sky scholar....and there is only a few days for youngsters (16-25) to apply for next year's grant.

    Been watching her from afar, so to speak. She's been there or thereabouts for several years now. Often the world's fastest, but because the sport is subject to protests, and it is very easy to make tiny mistakes, she has missed out on the odd gold medal or title. Great to see here fulfilling her potential.

    A. Murray/Evans out of Indian Wells doubles....shame as they would have played Jamie Murray and partner next.
