Set up:

 

[Shimmy]

Rosbery already faster than last year's fastest test time at Jerez and he's doing long runs.
Ominous.

Great stuff The_Abyss.

Quality pictures and that Merc actually sounds much better than it did on TV last year.

Testing with no front wing?

^Brilliant

Horner says the livery will be different in Melbourne which is no surprise, but will be "even stronger. It's great to do something different. Wait and see..."

 

[Shimmy]

It's dazzle camouflage. They're using it to hide something about the car design, which knowing Red Bull will be something illegal. I know they've got an S-duct - are those in or out?

In, Sauber used it last season.

Vettel wins best company car award.

Mercedes have had a part fail responsible for the water leak.
Hamilton luck struck again, he's done for the day.

I read 40,000 for Sunday.

Day 3 Times:

 

[Shimmy]

Unrealistic?

The Press Association are reporting that the team formerly known as Marussia are set to exit administration on February 19 via a Company Voluntary Arrangement. Remarkably, it appears that Marussia, who have been given an entry onto the 2015 grid under the name of Manor, could still compete this season.

Where are you getting the lap counts from? Am I being blind?
