So close to seeing the engine. Hopefully we'll see better pictures tomorrow. Speaking of engines: Lauda: "We will only know when the first three races are over, but I think Ferrari is on roughly the same level as Mercedes"

no, it's randomly selects an automated whinge or excuse to send to the pit crew, every 100 presses it screams "multi 2-1, seb multi 2-1" and then breaks down.
Random pre-season questions Why does Suzi Perry always wear a scarf? Covering up Coulthard hickeys? Afraid of her turkey-neck? I personally suspect she's covering up a button which allows Vettel to pull out a 3 second gap on lap one... Would it be better for Red Bull to just cut a hole in the bottom of their cars for the drivers to flintstone it? The BBC have yet to show footage of a car bouncing over a kerb in super-slow-mo like I like... What the FUDGE IS UP WITH THAT? If God exists, should he be embarrassed? I'm pretty sure Adrian Newey could have designed a more aerodynamically impressive and efficient shape for the male genitalia than the supposed omnipresent super-being has come up with. Is it fair to release the regulations for future seasons so far in advance? The team winning the championship will always be at a disadvantage, especially when there are major overhauls of sporting regulations, compared with the quitters who scrap the season by half-way to focus on next year... I know it makes it harder for one team to dominate, but it seems against the spirit of competition. Why couldn't ITV buy the rights back? At least now the cars are so slow they could cut to a commercial break and come back 16 minutes later, and most of the field will still be on the same lap

1. Maybe she's Penelope Pitstop's stunt double. 2. They already tried it, but apparently it didn't have any legs. 3. Slow down the footage of Renault powered cars and they'd stand still, create a rip in time and bring forth a apocalyptic rain of Betamax units of France. 4. God only had 7 days, Newey had all winter, yet he still stuck a shlong up front. 5. The only way to fix this is to supply the technical regs to all teams that finish below second in Esperanto. 6. They considered it, but wanted something truly representative of a high octane thrill ride and plumped for crown green bowling.
Ron spoke about the sponsor last week. Saying it would be there after a few race. Also that he had turned down a few short-term offers. As for the livery. It's a shame they didn't put more effort into replicating a "West" version, because that one looks very bland. Maybe the render is unflattering.
That must be an older picture, today they have the new RW on the car: please log in to view this image
Gah! They didn't do what we said with the nose to make it look normal and not like a knob.......Gutted
Need to take my mind off things as well. 2 Assignments left, they have to be in the same time. So tired of Uni, and so happy F1 is back. The Summer is coming.
