Awesome shot of Kimi in the racing suit. I really hope he fits in well with Ferrari.
Alonzo's head looks funny. It's got more shape than most peanuts.

i actually didn't recognize him without the hair lol, at first glance i thought of juan pablo montoya lol

Ferrari's loss is Mclaren's gain. Wonder why Kimi is going through so many Ferrari's now?

Its still just testing, like I said in another thread, it can take a little while for a driver to become accustomed to a new car. Bad testing reliability doesn't necessarily equal bad season reliability, just like good testing pace doesn't necessarily equal good season reliability. I would also like to point out that Alonso has had some testing reliability problems of his own.

I've been watching the testing pretty closely. The times have really been all over the place. Even in the last two days we have seen Massa go from 1st place to 7th, Alonso going from 5th to 13th, and Heidfeld go from 11th to 1st. I have noticed a few trends-

1st- BMW looks very strong. They are consistantly near the top of the testing rankings. Could they break into the top level of F1? perhaps replacing a driverless Renault? Such an advance would be outstanding for such a young team. On the other hand, they were known for winning or doing much better the practice sessions and then looking rather average durign races last year.

2nd- Alonso appears adjusting to the McLaren faster then Kimi is with the Ferrari, but I think that Massa might be the man to beat... if only he could drive in the rain.

3rd- Honda doesn't seem to be doing too well at the moment. I thought that they would have carried some of their strength from the end of last year to now, but it doesn't appear that way. Could the new tires be hurting them worse then some of the other teams?

4th- Renault seems has reliability down, but what good is it if they can't keep up with Ferrari or McLaren (or BMW?).

5th- F1....must....have...F1.....now......
