I also find it odd how one can derive that "McLaren wont finish on the podium" because they had a cooling issue in preseason testing.

At least everyone’s out there straight away today - seems like it’s still wet but at least it’s not freezing (more than I can say for SE England!)

Hopefully track will dry out soon, and no more rain for today so we can have ''proper'' testing day

Seems promising. 8 degrees and only 9.45.
Could reach 15 though.

Apparently McLaren has been the team taking the initiative in trying to get an extra day of testing as reported by AMuS.

Tells you a lot about who needs as much running as possible.
Not for nothing, Rosberg's Championship is the only thing that lends credibility to Hamilton's recent success. Otherwise, he'd just be the guy who's had the best car. — bhall II

Its no secret that Mclaren need to run as much as possible, but what do other team get spending the day and money for siting in the garage and posting snow photos on Instagram?
