Based on one days testing when Mark Webber came close to winning the championship in 2010 and led most of the season, yeah, smart.

Oh yeah, and replace Massa with Sergio Perez at Ferrari, because he was 2nd fastest in a Sauber!!! ZOMG, Sergio FTW, best driver in F1 since Senna!
Do people not realize that this is winter testing?? All times right now are pretty much pointless. Would have expected something better from the Fox Sports website than that. The stupid hype that this Ricciardo guy generates is amazing. What's more incredible is that people buy into it. Haven't people learned anything so far by watching the F1 careers of guys like Kovalainen, Piquet Jr., Grosjean, Hulkenberg and Kobayashi?? The first four were big guns in GP2 but fizzled in F1. Kobayashi was the only surprise package, and he wasn't even that good in GP2.

Don't worry Thunderbolt, the young lads gonna have a big future in F1 but lets give him time. The names mentioned above have all fallen off the radar after being dropped in at the deep end with minimal testing and then everyone's surprised they are half a second off the pace. At least this slowly, slowly approach gives Daniel time to learn his craft and hit the ground running when he gets his hands on a race drive.
All other opinions are wrong....
