Someone in RB6 thread said oil leak..., but get this:
BBC sport wrote:While waiting for a recovery truck, he positioned his helmet and head protection behind the car so photographers could not take pictures of the car's diffuser, a crucial part of the rear of the car that promotes aerodynamic downforce.
They need to get over themselves.

Maybe the Macca will race with that big thing on the side, come race time it'll be a sort of spinning blade that will wreck other cars trying to pass....

I think the lap times arnt gonna improve, the only thing they can do is go out and get as much data on the car in wet conditions, as that could be a bit more invaluable this season if there is more wet races.

Going by the teams' official Twitter feeds..

- Renault are waiting for improved track conditions,
- Virgin have been installing new pieces onto the car all night - hence their late start,
- Ferrari brought their post-lunchtime work schedule forward hoping for drier running later in the day,
- Williams are happy to keep clocking up the laps on the car with the Hulk.

Accross the tests so far, 9.5Km between all teams (Exc. Known Shakedowns) and theres only been 4 red flags. This is outstanding relyability for each car.

1680km and 380 laps so far today between the teams, Buemi and Hulkenberg the brave ones so far, and with that data, makes them favrouites for a good run in the first wet race by my estimation.

Ende Drift drivers from new rain
14:29 - The fans can still enjoy the rain. The rain that rebounds at the time have been continuously using drift drivers to see and hear in the corners. Alonso escaped a gravel moment and perhaps a crash in the chicane.
sounds like Alsoslow visited the gravel trap while the Spanish fans were frollicking in the rain :lol:
