Ferrari top final day of testing with blistering pace, I know it doesn't mean much until the first race.

It's a shame Ferrari, Charles in particular is showing great drive but when it really matters, race endurance the car will fall away. It's sad. I'd love to believe Charles can mount a championship bid :(

I would love to see Ferrari in the top 3 this year at the start of the season. I'd like Lewis to do well before he retires, but I think he's past his best.

2 weeks until first race. Streams are fantastic on my IPTV.

Well after 2 seasons of Mercedes being a shit box it may have been a good change, remember Mercedes only wanted to give him a 1 year contract.

Looks like Aston Martin have some serious problems with their power unit and with 2 weeks to go this sounds like a disaster!

Quote:

Several sources told BBC Sport this week that Newey said at Wednesday's meeting of the F1 Commission - a rule-making body comprising all the teams as well as F1 and the FIA - that the Honda power-unit could not even recover energy at the lower limit of 250kw, let alone the higher one of 350kw, which comes into force under certain circumstances in the highly complex rules.

Reliability was so bad that by the start of the final day of the test, Honda had only one battery left, and took the decision to limit running to only short runs. A statement said that was to allow them to study data in between track outings, but in the end Lance Stroll did only six laps all day.

I would say there is a very high chance.

According to Motorsport Italia, Aston Martin may take the formation lap in Melbourne and retire early due to Honda spare parts shortage.
