Emmcee 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2015 Sheer disappointment straight of the bat, another lie from Ron Dennis. The Mclaren HAS NOT changed its livery. Dissappionted, he made it clear about a month ago that they will have a new livery by the first race. Ohh and no van der Garde either. Sauber running Nasr and Ericsson.

Emmcee 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2015 Good news for everyone, the cars sound a hell of alot better, twice as loud as last season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BradSpeedMan 6 Report post Posted March 13, 2015 yeah, had to wake up at 3: 20 to watch the start of practise and realised how much I missed it. Good to see the cars on track again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spiral.out 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2015 What changed to make the cars louder? Also BREAKING NEWS: Alonso IS driving this weekend. He just completed the installation lap, came in and gave some development/setup feedback to his team and they made the requested changes. When he went to drive back out of the garage he accelerated and the car went backwards through the rear wall of the garage and into the lake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Emmcee 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2015 Well the first session of the season is over and what do we now know? Nothing. We knew Mercedes were still the ones to beat and they are well and truly ahead, Williams also look good as do Ferrari and Redbull seem to be suffering handling issues, Mclaren and lotus look quite handy also. But it's still to early to say who will be second best and so on, circuit still has to rubber in before everyone finds there feet and gets alot faster but Mercedes it doesn't matter if the circuit is rubbered in or not, there just way to fast. Sauber nor Manor completed a single lap in that session with either of there two cars. @ at spiral. Lol that Mclaren is huge, must be to house all that talent and skill lol. Maybe they need them that size at Ferrari so Vettel and Raikkonen can get there big heads in. Always wondered how they get a shirt over there heads lol.

Delivery_Driver 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2015 Far out channel 10's coverage SUCKS!!!!!!!!!i think the shiela on the desk has no idea about the sport, comes across as a deadset airhead, and the have that Qantas lounge, where they pick a winner out of a helmet and the B grade celebrity does not have a clue which driver they picked out of the helmet, maybe going on foxtel was a good thing maybe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Emmcee 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2015 It's always been like that. It's an outright joke. The people who host it aside from AJ have no clue of f1. Last year vetinarian Chris Brown hosted it and he couldn't even pronounce Bottas correctly. Yep it stunk, just glad we saw the cars on track again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I still think Redbull haven't shown there full potential yet, they should sort there handling issues out, things should start evening out abit more in FP2.

AleHop 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2015 Renault engine is causing a lot of trouble to Red Bull. Merc PU is still ahead by a mile. Williams' didn't look that great though. Ferrari's really much stronger than last year. No comments about Honda's. It's all about engines. Red Bull might be the best car, or McLaren or Ferrari, but no engine no racing. I'm afraid Mercedes didn't show 80% of their real pace. Get ready for a Hamilton vs Rosberg championship, I can't see Rosberg competing against Hamilton on a 20-race season.

Delivery_Driver 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2015 Much rather Mercedes domination than Vettel domination, but I think Fernando will get that Mclaren going alright by years end but Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Emmcee 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2015 Well rumor has it that the Honda engine is the only engine capable of matching the Mercedes and wind tunnel test have prooven aerodynamically that this Mclaren is the best ever. Only time will tell. I must say though as much as I hate vettel, he has made the transition to Ferrari beutifully. Imediatly looks quite comfortable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
