it looks like the wheels have been mounted too low...

it'll take a while for us to get used to it, but after a few races we'll forget about the differences. how many of us thought the engine covers looked weird at the Brazilian GP?

Looking at some pics of the Williams, the cars seem to be longer/flatter!

It's possible we could see some weird designs next season concerning the front wing and nose... walrus-esk dramatics perhaps?!

It's also weird seeing so many drivers driving for new teams. Montoya in the McLaren especially! Can't believe I would ever say this, but i'm probably going to be rooting for Montoya next season as my favourite driver seeing DC will be out for a year! Nah!!! I'll stick with Kimi! ;)

it took a few races in 1993 to get used to the narrow tyres not 11 years.

I still remember 98... the cars looked so narrow. After a couple of months everybody got used to it

Give Gene a break, he's only been in the car a couple of days! And Ferrari always go fairly slow in tests, anyway...

hmm.. BAR are doing the opposite to last year :P lol

but they are the only team to run ALL cars as hybrids. All BAR's cars in some way 05 spec.

The concept has all new (available) components, mainly the entire rear end: suspension, engine, gearbox 1/2 aero etc.

Whereas the other BAR's are just running smaller updates (along with Tyres) like gearbox, and i think all the 3 drivers are running 05 engines.

so really BAR are preping themselves very well. quite abit better than some other teams. coz as far as i know all the other teams are running only tyre eval.

Macca have simulated 05 aero but only for 1 session (morning or afternoon), Red bull just took a heap of rear wing off to help simulate the loss of downforce, Sauber are running what it seems as a modded mid wing. Ferrari raised their front wing like BAR, so it seems that none of these times (except BAR's concept) are worth reading into.

McLaren is testing with SPA rear wing configuration, so that they simulate loss of grip, like Red Bull.
