Maybe not 14:00 straight but if they are reassembling and not taking apart in that Pic they should be good to go for a few Hours of driving today still.

Button did those 320.4 in 5th gear....

[PlatinumZealot]

Crappy piping by Mclaren still.

[WaikeCU]

Imagine that some of them already lifted before the 100m board... Are those speeds higher than last year's venue at the Spanish GP?

[F1ern]

Hamiltons race simulation was fenomenal compared to last year test.

Thank

Why Mclaren didn't bring two cars? They don't have time to loose. Or it is only 1 car possible by the rules?

Typically you don't have a second chassis at this early or at least no complete car. Plus, afaik rules allow only one chassis.

It is not looking good at all.

Let's be positive or at least neutral. They could still get out this afternoon and there are still 4 days of testing to go.

I think that it's the merits of the car that are most worrying. We said at the beginning of testing that if they're 20kph down on the other cars then it's not good. That's where this car is.

It hasn't set any times below 1.26. It hasn't shown any straightline speed. It has had reliability issues. These are facts.

When the 31 sets times that are faster, when it shows speed on the straights, when it doesn't break down. Then we can say that the engine has improved. There are only 8 days testing this year, half of them are gone. People can continue to believe that there's going to be a magic moment when the engine suddenly improves but that is an act of faith rather than looking at the facts.

McLaren expects that Alonso will be able to run at 16:40pm...
