To be honest I am not sure if any f1 advertising works...

That could be tested by comparing the precentage of F1 fans with dandruff to that of non F1 fans.

I have limited hair to test that theory on

They did good today in testing. Lots of runs and second fastest. Loving it

Button tipping Mercedes. Thinks they have made progress and shown very well in the tests.

[What's Burning?]

You heard it here first folks, Button moves to Mercedes for the 2015 season, saying

"Life is about challenges. Most important of all, it's about challenging yourself." "Lewis has achieved an incredible level of success in a very short period of time, and he's a wonderfully gifted driver who has earned the respect of every Formula 1 driver.

"I'm sure there's plenty that we can learn from each other, and I'm really looking forward to using our combined knowledge to push the team forward."

Didn't he say that when he moved to Mclaren?

Yes. I think that's what WB meant. History possibly repeating itself, but please NO!. Anyway if Paddy goes there he won't want that again.

I don't think Button endeared himself to the Mercedes team at the end of 09 about his he signing to Mclaren was leaked

Great interview here by Lewis about Mercedes. Really considered answers but I think you can't help but hear the excitement he feels. He's managing expectations but I think toward the end of the interview he let slip what he would like. ...... Last season we finished 5th, if we can get in front if the Ferrari's and Mclarens...........note he didn't say red Bull. When asked specifically if he wanted to beat Mclaren to prove wrong the people who criticised his move, he said I'm not putting that out there.

To be fair, they weren't exactly trying very hard to keep him or Barrichello there.

nice to hear though

Whatever anyone says that Merc is now a true beast over 1 lap compared to others. The car looks so good round the track. There isnt any trick aerodynamic part on the car, the improvements have come from mechanical grip, traction, new suspension approach at the back.

But it makes sense, Merc stopped working on 2012 halfway last year and started working on this car. And its entirely Aldo Costas car, and we know Aldos main strengths at Ferrari were suspension and mechanical grip.

Looks like Aldos earned his wage here, and now the Aero boys can continue to add downforce onto a sound package.

All I can say is 'wow'

[racechick]

Yes. I'm thinking wow!

Indeed.

he's a bit of an idiot with some of the things he comes out with.....not that Im any technical expert, but even I can see some of the stuff he says is silly. And he can't keep his bias out of things, which is poor for one in his position.
