    No shock as the basic package has not been in need of total reform unlike others. Early times yet....

    Supreme USA carbon fiber has failed the Haas. Front wing is gone.


    (or was that USF1 that banged on about supreme carbon fibre from South Carolina?)

    12:28 Initial impressions of the new Ferrari from trackside are quite positive. Vettel was on the medium tyre and not exactly going all out, but the car looked fast, stable and transitioned well from turn 2 to the entry of turn 3 with Vettel able to take a nice tight line. The McLaren looks similar but a bit more on the edge through 2. The Toro Rosso also looks strong but with a wider angle of attack at 3. The Haas looked solid in the laps it did. Similar to the old Sauber but with more flexibility on the line Grosjean could take into 3. At least before the front wing fell off!

    Look how steep that airbox drop off is! slim sidepods which quickly tuck in to a very tight rear end. This is a good looking car.

    Livery reveal next week.

    I think they'll annoy the Williams/Red bull on more than one occasion to be honest.

    The new Manor, proclaimed as their best car ever launched, has done an lap and was stuck in 2nd gear for the entirety of it.

    I think we're talking about different teams here :D.

    I'm talking about the new Toro Rosso.

    STR may outperform Red Bull this season, looks like they will be knocking at the door. Should make for an interesting season.
