Ferrari are looking bloody good at the moment, would be interesting to see the fuel loads, not concerned about the mclaren today, probably just getting button set up. I just want the racing to start

I haven't seen many long runs from Ferrari, though I haven't been watching too closely. That's slightly concerning.

His best time was in an 8 lap run so i don't think the fuel loads will be too big but still more then a qualifying lap

So i guess he really wasn't lying when he said he brings 6 tenths to a car?

Ferrari must be running light there mostly do mid 12's on longer runs which puts it level with the Mclaren.

Does anyone else think the back on the Mercedes looks like its been badly sprayed on by a two year old? The livery in general is pretty poo tbh. They could have done something SO much nicer.

I think its purpose is to check the airflow lines

He's talking about the Mercades Livery not the Flovis Green paint on the Mclaren.

But yeah the merc looks rubbish.

wishful thinking?

Toro Rosso looking a bit better today.

Just assume they're faster than they look, if they are then it's not as disappointing, if they are actually slower then it's just as funny. Worked for me last year.

As we know Ross Brawn normally has a good idea of whats going on around him.
Ross Brawn speaking to BBC's @sarahholt: "It's always very difficult to judge. On full tanks yesterday (Tuesday) we didn't look too bad but we're a little bit off on pace and (there are problems with) the handling and balance of the car which we can fix for (the next test in) Jerez. We know what the problem is.

"Of course the other teams will be progressing as well so we are reasonable, not as quick as Ferrari and Lewis looked quick yesterday. So it looks like we've got a bit of work to do."

Then Alonso running in the 1:15s/1:16s with a lot of fuel onboard by the looks of it.
Well they say its 5 seconds a lap from full tanks so would probly work out about right for his flying lap being low on fuel.

FYI

15:07 Ticket prices for the test were from 5 to 25 euros. That's quite a bit of money the circuit made


15:04 Official spectator figures from Valencia: 36,400 fans today. A total of 59,100 over the three days. Some GPs would like such crowd

Ferrari probably aren't pulling in minimum fuel for the run, if you considered how many shorter runs they've been doing.

FERRARI OH

[cap-dude]

People still taking far too much from testing times. Judgements based on pictures and 6 numbers aren't exactly what you'd consider accurate. In fact, people are pulling facts from clouds.

It's like guessing race results based on friday practice. If that where the case we'd have seen quite a few Williams victories.

Anyways, word in the paddock is that the ferrari is quick. Where everyone else is, is anyones guess. Simple as.
