Holy crap Haas are on the pace - less than 3 seconds off this time, and quicker than the Williams, Manor, McLaren, Renault and Toro Rosso. And yes, that was the day two order at the tail end - Manor being quicker than McLaren, Renault and STR!
Nobody knows what the pace is at this point. Times mean nothing.

In the latest effort to destroy F1 i give you the 'halo'

78d1022.6666666666666x767__origin__0x0_Kimi_Raikkonen_halo_concept-700x367.jpg

Seriously, if you want a canopy for the driver just mandate one but this 'halo' to pretend you still have an open cockpit is just stupid, alternatively you could have this which at least looks cool...

Saw this yesterday, what a completely retarded idea is that, surely it must impede the drivers view having something like the in the middle of your field of vision.....

Agree fully the halo is ordinary. I read somewhere that a simulation of Jules's crash showed the halo would have done nothing.

As a long time F1 fan I'm having a lot of trouble getting excited about this year's championship! The Mercedes package has been so dominant the past two years I just find it hard to believe anyone can genuinely challenge them! If it's another year of Mercedes dominance with a Ferrari or RedBull picking up the scraps I'll probably tune out...well until the next major rule change anyway!

+1. Nearly 40 years a fan and I find it hard to believe how disinterested I am.

Renault's racing livery...



Another in matte finish. No doubt a new round of 'aerodynamic advantage' rumours will add to those with Red Bull.

Q1 and Q2 were OK. Bit of drama, will improve as teams, especially Hass, learn the system.

Q3 was boring. I reckon they need to give them unlimited tyres to lift the drama in Q3, keep them out there the whole time they are still eligible to run in the session.

I can cope with the new qualifying for Q1 and Q2 but Q3 needs to be back to the old rules to keep the cars circulating. The pole sitter was walking in pit lane with a minute to run. Dumb.

Overall the gap to Merc is a bit of a surprise unless the engines were turned up to 17. Race pace is different and under pressure Rosberg drops his pants. Given it is Melbourne and the likelihood of 16 seasons in one day... Might be entertaining for 2 - 5.
