I thought that too... altho it has the sun&bull on the engine cover and Red Bull logos on the sidepods still.. doesn't seem to be anything else tho. I was kinda hoping they'd do a testing livery like Sauber always used to (plain deep blue with silver logos) but I guess Williams got there first :p

the scuderia toro rosso is the same as the Red Bull racing team but the yellow part is silver i think

they can not run that car though next year under the rules

Why? Havent TSR got exemption from running V8s by running down tuned V10s.

All the cars currently pounding around Catalunya are just last years c ars modified. So we'll have to wait a while to see next years items.

TSR just like SGR can not use cars from another team.

TSR can not use the RB1 just as SGR can not use BAR cars its the same. 2 different teams.

TSR will have to use last year minardi car or build a new car.

Personally I think the rules should be changed

What is TSR or SGR?

Nothing! It should be STR (Scuderia Toro Rosso) and SAR (Super Aguri Racing), not TSR and SGR.

Mclaren are quick! well mercedes!!

"Trulli was slowing down like he wanted to have a picnic" LOL

i have to say 2seconds of the pace of 2005 v10 engine..

---

"Trulli was slowing down like he wanted to have a picnic" LOL

looks like BAR will be running old and new livery

"Trulli was slowing down like he wanted to have a picnic" LOL

Mclaren is very fast even with V8 engines : [aplicacions.circuitcat.com]

mclarens fast? toyota are .5 sec faster with v8 engine. or is ti not v8? and if a restricted v10 is faster than v8, why don't top teams use restricted v10s?

nono.. wurz is the fastest driver with v8.

and im guessing it was only trulli with the 'new' car.

---

"Trulli was slowing down like he wanted to have a picnic" LOL

both the toyotas were new and both v8.

but it does show the v10's even with a rev limit will be up to the job

Personally, i think it's still too early to say who's car is doing better. This pre-season is going to be more difficult than last years, at least untill we get to see the new cars. Appart from completely new engines, we don't know what they're testing, so it's better to wait and see.

because im fairly sure eveyone has to use v8s in 2007 so you might as well get development out of the way now so you dont fall behind later.
