    A bit dangerous, if the driver is having to correct the snap, sounds like rallying not F1, rear deg will be high.

    Interesting thoughts from Anderson

    Sounds like RBR and Lotus are fairly easy cars to drive in comparison to the merc and McLaren, interesting that he mentions the McLaren understeering a lot as that was not the case at the end of last season where it looked pretty planted.

    Edit: realised Forza already got this!

    Bianchi's programme:
    So far so good - no crashes, consistent laptimes and Bianchi's best lap so far is a 1:20.585 - already closing in on Di Resta:

    Day 1: Di Resta - 1:20.343 (medium)
    Day 2: Di Resta - 1:19.003 (soft)
    Day 3: Di Resta - LOL

    Transmission failure was the fault with the Ferrari supposedly.

    Medium tyre for Lewis, about equal with Nico.

    Yeah, I wasn't questioning the time, merely Benson reporting it as if it was a significant lap time. Still, if the car can reverse round in 1:35, that's pretty impressive!
    Fixed that for you.

    Lewis slightly, but the track has improved over that time. Looks equal at this moment in time but fuel levels are not known.

    Hamilton into the 1.18's now.

    Such is his awesomeness he's now broken the track.

    What a guy.

    Gary Anderson is no doubt a very clever man but for me he sometimes has his head so far up his own arse. Saying stuff like Red Bull have 10% more downforce than Mclaren just really annoys me.
