still not a single aero development part...pretty good basis then.

Well Prodromou siad that the car in Melbourne will look dramatically different,
I just hope this heating issues are not changing their plans, coz its probably too late to produce revised parts now for the first race
Did he? I think he said they have a "decent" upgrade package for Melbourne. I might be wrong but I dont remember anything about saying "look dramatically different".
Yes, you are correct, this is the original quote, I've taken the words from a translated source

"That is where the major focus has been and still is - to try to deliver a decent upgrade both aerodynamically and mechanically and to put our best foot forward for Melbourne.

You are a bit too harsh..
Being 4th or even 5th is a real progress compared to the last 3 years.
It is not harsh when it is the truth.

Aside from the big 3 there is Renault in the 4th position then Haas and Toro Rosso next. Force India and Williams have really fallen off the pace and I think that Mclaren is probably in this pack at the moment which would put them fighting for 7th best team and not 4th or 5th. Mainly this is on the amount of laps that Mclaren has done which isn't that many.

Now that IS one of the things test week is supposed to sort out. Comical, but good to happen 'cos they make sure it does not happen again. (maybe)
