Nick Heidfeld has expressed concern about BMW Sauber's 2008 car.
After the Swiss based team proved F1's third force in 2007 with its predecessor, the newly launched F1.08 has not performed ideally in pre-season testing so far, 30-year-old Heidfeld revealed.
"Last year, at this stage, things seemed better to me," he is quoted as saying at Valencia by the Daily Mail.
BMW chiefs, including team boss Mario Theissen, have targeted a maiden win for the German team this season, which begins in Australia on March 16.
Heidfeld says it is too early to rule out an improvement before then.
"I cannot yet say this car is worse, because I think we know what areas we have to work on," he explained.
For the past two days, BMW's 2007 car has lapped faster than the new contender as they ran simultaneously at Valencia.
that doesn't sound good when the driver has bad feelings. they seem to have changed the car quite a lot compared to last years car, and maybe that isn't working out. surely if they felt by melbourne the car wasn't up to it, they could bring an updated version of last year's car
