Canadian Grand Prix 2013, Montréal - Race 7/19

In season testing returns in 2014, according to James Allen!

Next season will be the busiest on record for the F1 teams; a 21 race calendar is taking shape for 2014 while on Saturday in Montreal the Sporting Working Group approved a package of test days and aerodynamic reductions which are set to save money, while bringing back four test sessions.
The package agreed by the SWC will now be put forward to the FIA World Motor Sport Council taking place on 28 June at Goodwood House, England.
The package envisages the end of the Young Drivers test session, a reduction in straight line aerodynamic test days from eight to two, while promotional days are also cut to two.
In their place, the F1 teams will remain in place for a two day test with one car after four European Grands Prix. Barcelona and Silverstone will be two of the venues. Eight of the 11 teams voted for the new measures which meant that it had the majority required to pass.

Good stuff :)
 
End of young drivers test? Whattttttttt that's crazy.
Unless they say at these new tests they can't use main drivers.
The rest of it sounds good though.

I'm hoping this is the case. Dropping the young drivers test would be suicide for the sport. They need to make the 4 in season tests non race drivers only.

It seems a sensible move in the whole, the testing ban has caused more problems than it fixes. They need to chuck some tyre manufacturer testing in their too and all will be well.
 
I hope Lewis gets a top 5 here but my dream is of a win. Wonder if button will moan like hell again?
 
It's weird in years gone by and when I was growing up, it was always quite pro English driver V the rest arguments. Now on here it's the JB V Lewis comments over and over. Little sly digs at Lewis from pro Button fans and vice versa.

I could understand it if both were going head to head for anything, but they are pretty much irrelevant in the title race.
 
Weather looks OK. Bright and sunny on Sky.
