Testing 2017
Winter is over, F1 cars are on track
At this early stage, Mercedes have pretty much doubled everyone else's lap counts, as predicted by Tazio... except for Ferrari, who are matching the Mercs for laps and even leading the time sheets. Could it be a sign of a good year for Ferrari? Possibly. Could I be reading too much into 1 hour of testing? Probably.

Problems for McLaren.
We've only had a single lap for Fernando Alonso so far - the fewest by any driver - and we're hearing that there is an oil leak preventing the team from getting back on track.

Another good day for Ferrari, Kimi topping the timesheets and completing a ton of laps.
Mercedes are getting through a phenomenal amount of laps. Interestingly they're only mid-table on the speed trap figures. I wonder how much that engine is turned down.
Bad day for Williams, only 12 laps and an early bath due to lack of spare parts.

I imagine Mercedes and Ferrari are both pretty happy with how this first test is going. Engines turned down, lots of laps and fastest.
Mclaren are looking in the doldrums againI still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

Almost all Finn's since Paavo Nurmi who are fast in their sport have been called "Flying", particularly the 1960's rally drivers, but I was actually thinking of "Flying Finnish" - the timing line at...
