I thought there was a set speed limit to "promotional" running of the car :/ It doesn't seem fair Ferrari can race around there test track collecting data but meh.

As for the F150 - doesn't look anything special, but I expect it to change quite alot up to Bahrain.

Bring on the MP4-26 launch!

LOL, the car was actually now where near lap times.

Like Redbull and co doesn't collect data when doing "Promo" outings. :p

This is starting to sound like little children that didn't find the toy they wanted in a cereal box. :lol:

They won't be the final Bahrain spec cars but I remember last winter, everyone looked at Ferrari, saw the times and thought 'that car is good' and Pat Symonds trackside watched them and said 'Sauber isn't that great, Red Bull looks like the best" and he was right.
Well the F10 was a good car. Just lost out in the evolution phase compared to the others in the first part of the season.

As for Mr Symonds, his comments were no brainer. Sauber lost the infrastructure from BMW over night. And Redbull was always the best considering how they nearly overhauled Brawn in the previous year, and finished as the fastest car. With it, they have Newey. Nuff said. ;)

There's no speed limit but there is a limit of 100km I think.

Ah okay :) I thought it was a speed limit, not a mileage one!

The ex Renault now Lotus livery looks good. Would be awesome without the red of 'Total', but you can't have everything I guess :O
Still a very nice looking car. The John Player Special livery has always been my favourite Lotus livery, much better than the 'Camel' yellow or original green/yellow.
