2013 pre-season testing

Impressive 4 lap times by Kimi though, all 23's....

 

Of course, but 6-7 tenths aint half as bad as a second at Jerez so it's something

 

At the back, Chilton leafrogs Pic.

 

Nico on top. By three effing tenths.

 

We may have a repeat of the beginning of last season. Which suits me!

 

Oh dear now Seb won't be happy with Nico doing that

 

Kimi doing some very consistent times and is now second

 

By only 0.007 as well.
Vettel will be even more mad, Alonso has pipped him, and reaches the century mark. Deserves a *clap

 

nah looks like Seb will finish on race pace.

 

these 4 guys are looking to proove something me thinks

 

Congrats to Nando hitting his century

 

Pics Caterham is broken

 

Oh sebs gone in!

 

Rosberg fastest overall in sector 3, a sector which requires good traction. So tyre wear on his car may be affected by heat or oversteer in the high speed corners.

 

Benson will have a field day.

 

Well done on stating the obvious... rolls eyes. Walks out.

 

Seb has gone out.

 

So the mercedes is good at getting heat into the tyre on lap 1 but it doesnt know when to stop

 

Waiting for Benson's 15 articles now.

 

At about 3:30, Craig Slater was live on Sky Sports News and said the following:

"... Interestingly McLaren over a second off the pace today [with] Sergio Perez in the car but you know, people are reading all of this in different ways in fact one interpretation of the times thus far in testing, based on long run pace, how much the laptime drops off or increases over long runs, some experts have Sebastian Vettel a little bit behind some of the other teams and have the McLaren the fastest car based on long run pace thus far..."
