I see Ferrari have added some gills! :eek:
I wonder if Ferrari are trying out extra cooling solutions for hot races, and if they are legal ?

I think Ferraris new car will be nearly as fast as Red Bulls or therabout, but the question I ask myself is if Alonso can beat Vettel even with an equal car.

The pilot that puts his car on the pole most often will win the WDC. IMHO
That would include other pilots than just Fred, and SV!

Hmmmmm, not necessarily so. Does a fast car in qually mean it heats the tyres up quicker? Does this mean it is tougher on tyre wear? If so, they'll get mugged in the race as the tyres degrade so fast.

The strategists have got a real hard task this year.

I hope your right and the P's make that much difference, because if it wasn't for teammates taking each other out, and some mechanical failures, last season would have been really boring. Having the adjustable rear wing should be a wash, but I suppose that some teams could make a difference with superior KERS!

Really?
Last time I checked SV had quite a margin when it comes to taking pole positions during a season.

Anyone care to venture a guess what the little vent at the bottom of the rear crash structure is for? :confused:
The entire RCS is covered with heat-reactive stickers. That is for exhaust gas passing over it on the outside correct?

No, I didn't miss that point, I just didn't believe that you need a tap on the shoulder for getting that one right! :p
