Its not really worth of comparing times when there is Honda on 2nd place.. But this consept looks interesting and propably it also works.

Kimi, so, Massa Fernando Sebastian is faster than you. Can you confirm you understood that message?

The Ferrari mechanics said: ''Everyone is looking at the hole but you cannot see the most important thing because it's at the underside of the car.''

The nose has already passed the crash test.

The team will probably not use slick tyres today. Each team has been allocated nine sets of them.

Apperantly Massa's best time on grooved tyres was indeed a 1:20.01, instead of a 1:22 as Ferrari said at the end of the day.




Ferrari investigating 'hole nose' leak
New innovation in the media for months

The appearance of Ferrari's radical new nose innovation at the Barcelona test on Monday confirmed that espionage could still be a factor at the Italian team.

Alleged Ferrari spy Nigel Stepney no longer works for the Maranello based team, but the technical secret about the 'hole nose' nonetheless emerged in the pages of an Italian magazine some ten weeks ago.

Autosprint broke the story about the nose, including sketches of the innovation, in its pages in February, raising suspicions that the leaking of confidential and sensitive design data has not stopped, notwithstanding Stepney's firing and McLaren's $100m fine.


According to the Swiss newspaper Blick, Technical Director Aldo Costa was 'horrified' about the leak, confiding that 'very few' Ferrari workers even knew about the nose solutions when they were being tested in the wind tunnel.

Blick claims that an internal investigation into the leak is in progress.

My God in heaven, is that Renault ugly. And I thought we'd had it with the Red Bull.

Performance beats looks, or so it is intended. The Ferrari nose looks like a hammerhead shark and the Renault is edging close to an A380.
