Not a fan of having the rules changed so much that the championship winning team could go from being far and away the best team to possibly the worst team in the space of 6 months. Not a great look.
First world problems.

Cars sound pretty underwhelming on the straight.

No wonder Lotus struggled with crash testing at first, that nose looks like it would slice right through anything it hit. You'd be picking pieces of it out of your ribs if it t-boned you.
I actually prefer the Williams and Sauber anteater design to Ferrari's effort. Some of the other teams have taken it a bit far though.

Mind boggling how far off the pace RBR is right now 2 weeks out from the first race. On the bright side we'll hopefully have a new WDC.
That Force India livery looks horrible.

No I just want every team to have a decent shot. Not to have a couple wiped out due to circumstances largely out of their control.I'm all for unpredictability...

Vettel got 4 corners into testing today before the car stopped. PARTY TIME! Right?
As far as I'm aware, you've followed motorsport long enough to know that that doesn't happen.
I don't know how long RB have a deal with Renault. But if they don't like it, they can suck it up for the year and get a new engine partner. They can build one themselves too. Historically, their success the last 4 years, is the exception. They, and whoever else, can get over it.

I can dream...
As long as that dream isn't A1 actually. Good god that was awful.

Vettel tried again...and got to the end of the pitlane.
Well, you all wanted to see how he'd go in a car that wasn't among the best on the grid. You've got your wish.

It's going to be great hearing him bitch and moan after every race because he can't get near it.

Then he'll earn new respect, from me at least.
Which I'm sure is his #1 goal in life...
A team with Red Bull's resources will eventually come good. Too much experience to struggle indefinitely.

They will get it right but both guys are going to have some ground to make up if they want to win the title.

Then it wouldn't be Seb.
But keep living in hope, MWNN.

They'll need Mercedes, Ferrari and McLaren to take points off each other at the top end for RBR to catch up.
But if one or two of them bolts out of the gate, the season could be over by the flyaways.

Pfft. This is pre-season testing, he's not losing points yet. Let's wait till the real stuff starts and he's dealing with DNF after DNF.

Okay. I have no doubt you'd refuse to admit to being wrong anyway, but okay.

Same, with all these testing dramas it's promising to be a pretty unpredictable and exciting season.
Towards the end of last year I'd find myself looking forward to each race, only to lose a lot of interest after two laps once Vettel was already 500m in front.

Likewise. However that will quickly diminish if Vettel streaks away to an easy victory. Don't rule it out. This is Red Bull and Vettel we're talking about.
