    While testing lap times are meaningless (mostly), still nice to see before Melbourne and Mercedes' reveal they've been sandbagging again:

    The drivers are saying it will be even harder to pass with the new setup. Once again, pending a pit screw up or mechanical failure, the race winner will be established on the first turn of the race.

    I have read that from several drivers as well. Hopefully it doesn't turn out to be the case, but they would know better than I would!
    The starts are said to be more unpredictable as well, with a lot more chance for screw up as it's entirely on the driver now.

    I'm really excited for the start. I'm pretty sure Red Bull has something up their sleeves.

    I hope Willams doesn't fade away during the season. I really like Massa. I don't think he really got a enough respect as a driver, so I'd like to see him fight for wins.

    I also think that Bottas will beat or come close to beating Hamilton.

    :open_mouth: Massa's back?! I didn't know that! :smiley: Great driver, and sure funny as hell! :star: He should have won that Championship with Ferrari... :disappointed:

    So...anyone think Honda will fix whatever they need to this year? I just really wanna see Alonso fight for wins again.

    And I like Honda being in F1.

    The McLaren-Honda looks worse than it has since Honda has returned. They won't last the season before McLaren is with another engine supplier.

    Actually I was just reading an article about McLaren speaking with AMG for engines.

    It may happen. Maybe next year.

    But I'm still holding out hope for a Honda turn around...

    I can't believe all the fans running onto the track on the cool down lap. Those idiots with the Ferrari flag looked like they were trying to get hit.
