(Note: If you do not understand spanish, on the top right hand side you can change it so the page displays in English).

Ok, thank you very much!

Will there be separate threats for testing seasons?

Hope not! [-o<

[Mr.G]

I'm just asking, because they was last year and I don't want to "spam" the wrong thread. I would like to see some weather condition prediction and so for the track.

How are the temperatures in jerez currently?

Too cold for the tires, but the engines will love it.

Does somebody remember the page for livetiming? It goes somehow like tests.cc.com...

f1today.nl does live timing, not to a detailed level, but the keys ones i.e who are are on track/off track; what tyres are being used ; fastest lap times and number of laps etc. this was last year... i am not sure if there would be any improvements this year.

Why will the engines love it?

[SamH123]

Engines are more efficient in colder temperatures (it's worth a fair bit of time a lap)
Also there will be less strain on the cooling systems (although the teams would probably rather the cooling was given a full workout)

I was just kidding when you wrote "threats". But tbh i think there have been separate threads for the tests. I could be wrong.

Thanks SamH123!

Ok I agree less strain on the cooling system particularly the electronics. Remember the engine is turbocharged and in the past dense cool air was beneficial, in 2014 the turbocharger is going to boost the air pressure and therefore density and heat it to over 450 degrees (the inter cooler will then cool it down). Therefore 10-20 degrees air temperature isn't going to make much difference
