    Mercedes changed a lot since Ross is gone...I do not know whether one could say that Rosberg was a clear No.2 on the paper but he certainly was in the mind of Toto.
    As said back then: Rosberg was not intended to lead the team in the Schumacher days and then Mercedes replaced Schumacher with Hamilton with the intention of him leading the team. It took Rosberg way to long to have enough self confidence to "demand" his chance on the WDC. Hamilton always got away with much more than Rosberg did...
    Just remember Monaco: Rosberg was slow and told to give way to Lewis and although it was clear that Lewis would be his only contender for the WDC he did...does anybody really think Lewis would have done the same??? They would have asked him, he would have denied and afterwards Toto would have given a press release that it was not correct to ask him for that...Happened more than once!

    (A) Regarding Irvine and Salo...I wouldn't use them as measuring sticks (Get it? 'Synonomous with lightning rods?) :)
    "(btw, who're Irvine or Salo? They're supposed to be lightning rods?)"
    It's called sarcasm. 'Tough one for you, eh Sheldon? :(

    (B) You know how it is....once an arase, usually always an arse. Me? When I don't care for someone, I ignore them. I especially don't address one's writing style when I don't understand it....'wouldn't want to make a fool of myself by misinterpreting them...it's good advice... ;)

    But, have a nice day. Relax and enjoy LM. :)

    Hamilton agrees to test on Thursday

    Lewis Hamilton has agreed to help Pirelli with tyre testing later this week.

    The triple world championship openly admits to disliking track testing, and often pulls out of scheduled sessions with injury or illness.

    But after winning his second race on the trot last weekend and taking over the championship lead from Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel, Hamilton has now leapt at the chance to test at Paul Ricard.

    Hamilton agrees to test on Thursday


    I'm just putting this out there is all. Not a fan of the guy outside the track but I do have

    respect for him inside the track and his achievements given said formula/era of F1.

    Probably mus be a fashion show somewhere nearby for him and bieber to visit afterwards hehe.

    Bit late to worry too much now, he needed to be at those before the year started like Seb, that's why Mercedes were struggling tyres wise for so long. They understand them now, so horse door bolted springs to mind

    Yes here's an interesting point. The new MB has a longer wheel base and I think that has suited Hams a great deal. He used to lock his brakes every weekend, flat spot his tires, and then complain about vibrations. The longer wheels base car doesn't not dive as much on braking so he gets away with his hard, late braking style. This also suits the long sweeper tracks and the power of the PU is just better than Ferrari still. But the chassis and aero of the SF are quite good and will be more competitive in the twisty circuits like Singapore, even without the mini chicane in the middle anymore. I wonder if SF can do something about the down force to relieve some drag because I think that has hurt them on the power circuits like Spa and Monza. We didn't see anything at Monza. Also the oil burning is a gimme too. Nothing like extra calories to make you faster. But then reliability could be an issue for MB, especially since many other teams retired "strategically." We can hope. It has happened in the past to the "invincible" MB.

    I hope you are right John, but could be a false dawn even if we do well in Singapore and Malaysia, we need more from the car! Forza Ferrari
