Is it too early to start discussing this years up coming season? Perhaps, but winter testing is under way and although not much can be gleaned from it, one or two things appear to be clear so far.

 

Felipe Massa has been quick which presumably means Fernie's going to be even quicker. Jenson is buzzing and raring to go so, personally, I hope Mclaren give him a car he can be confident with 'cos when they do he goes to another level and can be unstoppable. But.... the pit stop gremlins struck again last week when they sent him out without securing a wheel properly! Have they learnt nothing?!!! We'll also see whether Perez is all he's cracked up to be. Big year for him.

 

No doubt Red Bull will be quick again with Mark determined to prove Marko wrong when he reportedly said Webber will be Seb's wing man. I could imagine several Oz expletives bouncing round the walls after that little gem came out.

 

Kimi popped in some quick times too and it'd be great to see him really mixing it big time with the other front runners but it remains to be seen whether Grosjean will stay out of trouble.

 

After a false start, Lewis has put in some lengthy laps adjusting to the Merc and their reliability seems in tact. Must say I'm looking forward to seeing him wringing the neck of that car and ding donging with old mate Nico who I suspect will match him pretty closely.

 

As for the rest, Maldonado will probably cause trouble and I'm waiting to see if Bottas is as good as is claimed.

 

So, with nothing changing this year except for tyres (I understand the different Pirelli compounds will differ by 0.5 secs per lap, maybe more, with higher degradation so pit stops could average at least two per race, if not three) leading to careful race strategy and driver protection of their tyres

 

Roll on March 17th.

It all looks terribly bland at the mo', hopefully we'll see some sparks when they bolt some of the new bits on.
