While I agree that there's only so much you can read into test times, that comparison of times shows a healthy formula. There's been a slight improvement of a few tenths here and there, but no enormous strides forward and no-one running away from the rest. It's obviously going to be a competitive year.

just ask yourself a few questions... who had on new rubber? what ballast were they running? what dampers? - the list is endless.
but I did hear that Fab did see the barriers from a rather close perspective.I've got friends racing all over the world.... good luck to you all.

Crash.net stated an error for the other day and Turkington was 3rd quickest in the end, with another time under the 49 second barrier. Thats 3 of them now.

the times are all a PR exercise - as long as they actually did do some testing and some good out of it

It's OK, it's a short stage! Remember the FIA and promoter reserve the right to completely fuck over everything we all know, enjoy and understand about this series and sport. Or, maybe they might...
