Ted Kravitz is predicting RBR won't make it out of Q1 in Australia.

I'm sure they'll work it out and have a good season. They don't seem like a team that will accept poor performance and have a budget to spend their way out of an engineering hole.

They'll struggle at the beginning of the season and run mid pack then come back the second half of the season and compete IMO.

High possibility of Melbourne being an abject train wreck.

Thought this was cool as hell and in direct contrast to the standard prima donna behavior of F1 drivers.

For all of the fans hoping to be the center of attention at a RB Bukkake party in 2014, I'm seriously hoping Newey has designed another MP4-17...

12.5 days until P1.

Consensus seems to be, make it to the end of the race and you will be guaranteed points.

BBC F1 pit-lane reporter Tom Clarkson: "So that's it for Sebastian Vettel: just four corners of one lap on day three of this Bahrain test. Red Bull have confirmed that he won't run again today, making this the worst day of the winter for the world champions in terms of mileage.

"A battery problem stopped Vettel this morning and as the team fired up the RB10 to send him out again at 3pm local time, they discovered another problem. They wouldn't confirm what this secondary problem was, only that it will prevent any further running today. That points to an issue either within the power unit or the gearbox."
View Quote


BBC Sport's chief F1 writer Andrew Benson:  "It has kind of gone under the radar because of Red Bull's continuing problems, but Lotus are arguably in even worse shape. After missing the first test in Jerez, they did not have a great time in Bahrain last week, although the word was they were happy with the car. But they are continuing to have problems this week, and now their running for the day is finished after just 30-odd laps. Lotus are at the very bottom of the mileage charts this winter - below even Marussia and Red Bull. What condition will they be in come Australia?"

Massa is definitely a dark horse to win a few of the early races.

Maybe not even a 'dark horse', strictly speaking.

If the Red Bull is not a contender at all, I will view it as a deliberate move to make them uncompetitive rather than a failure of the team.  



If we can't beat them on the track, we will beat them by changing the rules.

How so? All the teams have the same rule book, and let's face it, RB has Newey. They should be dominating regardless.

So since red bull can't make the cars work to the same rules everyone else can that means it's the rules fault? Not hardly.

When it was an aero game they dominated because they had Newey.



The game has changed.

Im under the feeling that each team is going to have its very highs and very lows this season.

On the subject of redbull, this is a powerplant issue, not aero.

Bottom line Renault has not delivered a reliable, working power plant to their contracted teams. Renault has so far fucked all of its teams, this is not a Red Bull issue.

Not only is the Renault engine having some issues, but Newey runs very tight packaging in the back, probably why we seem them with cooling issues.

I like that the rules change every so often. It encourages innovation and engineering. Adapt or die.

Plus, you get cars that sound like space ships.
