They always have some stuff like that, and from my experience I can tell you that those are the dummies. The real thing is under the hood.

Ferrari also has a little extra air inlet on the engine cover, pretty interesting.

Concussed Alonso to remain in hospital overnight

I read somewhere that he might not be fit to take part in the third testing this week. The good thing is that he's well :thumbsup:

This Alonso hospital story is all very bizarre. He's still there, having had, according to McLaren, a pretty minor non-accident and passed all tests and feeling perfectly ok.

The longer they go without saying anything the worse the speculation gets.

Yeah it's very odd. Not sure what to make of it.

Maybe Kevin Magnussen posed as a doctor?!
