    It's no more weird than a minority of Red Bull fans being gloomy that they appear to have adopted the Sauber exhaust when all the other teams have adopted the McLaren solution. :emoticon-0105-wink:

    Looks like Seb might want to get the fastest time, yet Grosjean doesn't look ready to let him have it.

    1:22 for his first timed lap. I think he's going to try and get it.

    Looks like 1:21.9 is all Alonso will dare to go now.

    On the BBC website The headline "Ferrari unveil major car redesign" with a picture of a Ferrari crashed in a tyre wall. Classic

    Romain Grosjean reckons Lotus have found some "interesting" directions to go in with car set-up for the next phase of the season on the back of a strong week of testing at Mugello.

    "We had plenty of things that we really wanted to test since the first race but we couldn't have chance to do it. Here we could do them," he told Sky Sports News' Craig Slater.

    Fernando Alonso says Ferrari must show clear progress at Spanish Grand Prix after Mugello test - Autosport

    [HR][/HR]

    And, some F1 Gossip, which is hardly thrilling

    Can't help but sympathise with Alonso, he'll get the team and car right sooner rather than later. What a man.

    This year was (well still is) a perfect year for them. So many teams fighting over the top points means that if someone could run away with it they'd build a lead extremely quickly.

    Ferrari and McLaren are probably kicking themselves right now :)

    They had it in their hands, but now it is in everybody's hands, if we thought 2010 and 2011 was un-predictable.. we have Saubers-Lotus'-and Mercedes fighting for wins.
    The icing on my cake would be for Michael to get that dream 92nd, maybe Spa ;)

    Or not.

    McLaren has decided definitely to join the Red Bull teams in running their young driver test at Abu Dhabi, not Silverstone. Pressure from Mumtalakat?
