    Funny article:
    The Horse Whisperer - For whom the bell tolls

    "This is the legacy of the holy war waged by the former FIA president. The cause in question was to allow smaller teams to get into Formula 1. This is the outcome: two teams will limp into the start of the championship, a third is being pushed into the ring by an invisible hand – you can be sure it is not the hand of Adam Smith – and, as for the fourth, well, you would do better to call on Missing Persons to locate it. In the meantime, we have lost two constructors along the way, in the shape of BMW and Toyota, while at Renault, there’s not much left other than the name. Was it all worth it?"

    McLaren looked very strong in Barcelona.

    not only topping the mini 'qualifying' but also showed good pace and consistency on the longer runs.

    Hamilton for Champ

    'The Hulk' to impress this year i think, less than two weeks now!

    Webber joins in the rant against the new teams:
    pitpass - the latest, hottest F1, GP2 & GP2 Asia news

    US F1 will not make it, Campos have changed name and owner, Lotus were several seconds off the pace in the last test round.

    And now a bunch of Serbians want to field last year's Toyota, without having turned a wheel.

    A bit of a circus left by Mosley...

    Happily the top six teams all look well matched, roll on the weekend :)
