:lol: @ Vettel shearing sheep.

I hope that the McLaren exhaust is cleared (if it is under scrutiny), the one thing that McLaren doesn't need right now is another controversy.

It's Mark's home race, after all. Bet he set up Seb so he'll do the weird shearing sheep thing. :lol:

Interesting. With teams spending millions and millions on their aero/mech designs, could it be simple ergonomics that end up making the difference? We'll have to wait and see if the drivers who have to control it all from the steering wheel actually make more mistakes than the others (if any at all).

I'm definitely excited to see what the outcome of the first race will be. There are still lots of questions in the air and many doubts on the effects the technical changes will have on the final results.
