Well, given the result of the race and the relative performance of the cars some of us may not be doing very well this season...

It's early days yet. Don't forget, the McLarens have aerodynamic problems and the Ferrari's still have reliability issues. Most teams are still doing the final testing in the first 2 or 3 races so it could and probably will all change. If I'm being honest though, it's a refeshing change to see the big boys lower down though I guess it will only spur them on more. Long before the Braun team have finished drinking their champagne, McLaren and Ferrari will be hard at work on the drawing board!

Just look at the Premiership in football this year for example, Man U had a terrible season start, now look where they are!

When the going gets tough............

Mike

Reliability of one of their driver is certainly suspect.

Malaysian GP weather

F1's second race of the season, the Malaysian GP, looks likely to be an extremely wet affair as heavy rains lash the region.

Heavy rainfall is currently awash in Malaysia and is not expected to let up any time soon with the BBC's meteorologists forecasting rain throughout the weekend. 

And while rain has often livened up many a dreary F1 grand prix, this weekend it could prove to be hazardous as F1 has switched to slick tyres and the drivers are still adapting.

So expect a few spills and thrills at Sepang this weekend...

Oooo err this should be exciting..Barrichello favourite maybe?

Tyres will play a big part in this weekends race on the basis of this weather forecast, so that'll be Mclaren stumped, with regards to previous years' races in the wet.

Well apart from that lol!  I must admit, no-one yelled louder than me when Liverpool beat them. I didn't take my shirt off all weekend!

Anyway, I think it's going to be closer this year (football and F1!)

Typical 'Ferrari International Assistance' intervention.........it's just a matter of time before the results of each race are tailored to suit the maranello muppets

Good for you Pitsy

Maybe you should apply for a position at Mclaren for 'trying' to deceive and failing, by entering TWO teams into 'the Bavarian-board League'

Err, I find it hard to understand this rant considering that neither Fiat finished, so the team were not involved in ANY protest.

 

p.s. in McLaren's case, does KERS = Keep Evading Rational Sensibility ?
