while very fast you also have to consider that their was a 55 lap race laying a ton of rubber on the track providing more grip for the test. Not taking anything away from the lap, just saying that its not a true 2 tenths off the pace. Another thing to take into account, it is post season testing...so the car might not be 100 percent legal...Just saying...take the times with a grain of salt. |

What basis do you have to say that your fairly certain the cars are legal. I didnt say they dropped a v10 in it, Im just saying they may be testing some parts for next year thus the car is not still in full RB6 trim.

“We completed a very busy schedule today, split between an evaluation of the driver and working on elements for next year’s car,” said Toro Rosso’s chief engineer, Laurent Mekies
^^^A quote from the young driver test ^^^(yes I understand that toro rosso and redbull are not the same team, the quote just proves they are allowed to do some development work for next year) |

However, in the team's perspective, this can only give them a baseline of how will the new parts integrate into the new chassis next year. They will prefer to have feedbacks from their prime drivers instead of young test drivers. So these sessions can only do so much, but still, better than nothing.

Not sure about small teams, but its a very small price to pay for a possible future WDC for the team. e.g. Sebastian Vettel (even he tested in BMW Sauber and went of STR/RBR later), Lewis Hamilton...just to name a few....

Any idea how Sam bird's time vs. Rosberg or MSC was?
Think he is the current #1 driver for ART GP. ART has been the team to watch in GP2 with the exception of this year. On Pastor Maldonado, I dont know about him. Something about him just puts me off. I don't think he is really anything special of a driver either. He was in ART and flopped, went to Rapax and won but its like his 3rd year in GP2. Most of the prodigy's spend like 1 year in GP2, win, then move up to F1.
