I find myself conflicted about this season based on testing. Some days created good impressions then other days were utterly dire. I don't know where the team are gonna end up, but i am hopeful for the same ballpark as last season. Another season with one win would be good in my view, it's better than going backwards.
Here's something i read today:
The Finn had already missed the third day of the Barcelona test due to illness and was replaced in the E21 by reserve driver Davide Valsecchi and Romain Grosjean.
And he completed just seven laps during Sunday morning's running as the team investigated a problem with the gearbox and then opted to change it.
When asked by AUTOSPORT whether he was worried about the possibility of unreliability derailing a potential title campaign, Raikkonen said: "Not really.
"The few times that problems have cost us many hours, it's always been the same thing. And we don't expect it to happen when it's warmer.
"When you have these problems, you can never be 100 per cent that it won't happen again.
"But we had some problems in testing last year and then found the racing was OK. I think it will be the same story again."
Lotus technical director James Allison said that despite the loss of track time, Raikkonen's afternoon, which revolved around a number of four to seven lap stints on medium and soft tyres, had given the team reason to be optimistic for the season-opening Australian Grand Prix.
"Today was something like this entire test in microcosm; we spent too much of the day in the garage, but when we did get out on track we made good progress.
"A definite positive is that we are not finding it difficult to be on the pace, and we haven't had to resort to low-fuel runs at any of the tests to get a good time out of the car."
I do worry about reliability (a lot now) but that last sentence isn't a bad thing to read...
I am a MacLaren supporter and my dream team was Kimmi and DC. I have been a fan of Kimmi since he first came to F1 as a fresh faced youth
