Look at those top times!
McLaren time much better today. I wonder whether their engine troubles came from Honda turning up the wick a bit to give the team more power.
Williams drivers both at the bottom of the time sheet after Massa spending days at/near the top shows why test times need to be evaluated w/ an understanding of the teams' daily programs.
Lots of laps being turned...well, except by McLaren.

What do you mean? Massa is fastest on the Medium tire! :lol:

The one lap speed of the Ferrari is encouraging, but then I say that every year.....

I've seen plenty of pics like this but I've been ignoring them, assuming it was a joke or just someone's attempt at livery rendering.
Nope, it appears to be real.

I've got to think about this, I wonder how all the crew members will react. Think they will have to wear skinny jeans?

Steve AdministratorStaff Member Articles Moderator
No, but maybe the new driver (Ocon) will have to wear a matching Pink Power Ranger-esque jumpsuit.

I kid, of course, have nothing against the new livery. It will certainly stand out on the F1 grid! Also, far from the first time pink has been used on a race car.
