No, I have a lot of University commitments this month so I can't.

A pitty, but good luck with the tests.

For tomorrow, I hope STR also gives at least some nice tweaks to it's livery. It's scheduled for 16:30 GMT, if I'm not mistaken

Thanks! And yes, I'd like to go but with a lot of things it's financing it as well. Jobs prove hard to come by, especially when you ideally need free weekends...

Not sure about STR. 4.30 GMT seems logical as Mercedes has booked the Jerez circuit for the day, which I presume finishes at 4pm GMT.

I wouldn't say purple is the best color for a F1 car, but at least Red Bull is striving for some change.

It would be sooooo boring to see the same paint scheme every year with the same old colors, specially If they'll keep winning all the time again. Hopefully they won't because Red Bull's reign is already annoying people.

I miss yellow cars in F1...... :cry:

Red Bull is getting quite annoying for sure

the best scenario is a different champion per year, just like happened from 1961 to 1985

Not *quite* on the same level. Todt, Brawn and Schumacher annoyed people due to questionable ethics. A nervous foot and a finger is hardly close.

Well nothing on the car has been found illegal...so...erm..yeah. The FIA agreed, and they tested that car every way possible.

And I still don't know why people listen to fucking Marko. He's a tool, everybody knows it. But he isn't anyone important in the team. He's an advisor like Lauda was at Ferrari.

Ferrari's reign would probably be less annoying if they didn't pull stunts like Austria...."OMG!! we're miles ahead of the rest but we better let Micheal win this one instead of Rubens because you never know...."

It is like ellis mentioned, Ferrari's dominant period was during a time of completely different rules which allowed then to test 24x7, then there was the ethical behavior of a few individuals... Austria both in 2001 and 2002 was made to look bad thanks to Rubens and the very public way he dealt with the team orders. In addition during their dominant period, 2002 and 2004 especially, Ferrari really had no competition. Whereas 2010 through 2012 have been exciting and Red Bull have had multiple credible competitors.

No comparison really. Ferrari's period was annoying, Red Bull's exciting.
