Loss of rear brake pressure. Mercedes have just said. Lewis is fine and they're checking over the car.

Lol. You beat me to it LRW

At the start of Day 1 Testing, Ted Kravitz did tweet "The cars are new. better check if the brakes are working". Fair warning, and Merc ignored it.

Really exciting to see Perez in the McLaren. Hope his day goes well.

That Ferrari looks beautiful.

Massive set-back for Lewis Hamilton, but it shouldn't harm things with regards to big picture and Merc's overall pre-season prep.

Anyone read the BBC live update feed? It's nice to know ludicrous arguments about Hamilton aren't exclusive to here.

Meanwhile i'm desperately trying not to get my hopes up about this Lotus...

Ohh the people that haunt the BBC forums are totally ridiculous. BBC 606 used to be a hell-hole.

All right, I've decided that I don't just like this car. I love it.

It's a big image so I've not put tags around it.

It's a good shape, but I wish they coloured it differently....

From that angle it's great!
Btw, Mercedes playing with Lewis? They'll get it up and running again.

I really like the livery for the most part, but I think the red/white running down the sidepod would have been better as a nice curvy stripe following the lines. Also, they need to ditch that awful Chelsea logo.

From the feed I am following, they reckon the engineers have said the Merc will not be out again today.

I LOVE the colouring of it. It might even be my favourite, in the looks department right now.

Ouch, that's a big loss.

Yep - whats that, less than 20 laps from the first two days...?

From the Autosport live feed:

13:01 Mercedes will sit out the rest of the second day. Jon Noble has confirmed the team needs to halt for repairs to the hydraulics and the rest of the car.

Painful...
