Thought I'd get the ball rolling!
Cars have just done installation laps, Mercedes have set a time of 1:26, but its very early doors. Aldo Costa has said the entire aero of the Mercedes is likely to change before Melbourne.
Be interesting to see how many different configurations are tested this week accross the teams.

Bit crap that there is no live tv of the testing, hard enough justifying sky with the wife now we have moved house and i am starting a small business, so cash is very tight. I have the legacy package but if i make any changes i lose F1 without the whole sports bundle, and seeing that a channel dedicated to the sport isnt getting to show testing is a bit poor.
I realise its the teams request, but i feel that after the covers are off, your in the wild now and folk can get to see.
I hadn't realised it wasn't being aired until I looked at the F1 channel this morning I realise its the teams request, but i feel that after the covers are off, your in the wild now and folk can get to see.

Yeah..... bit early for predicting form on the morning of day 1!
There's going to be teething issues. Some of these cars were literally bolted together just in time for their launch.
Learnt over the years it's also difficult trying to actually read the form with so many unknown variables such as sand bagging, fuel levels, engines turned down etc.
It's obviously better if your favourite team is doing laps and up the front of the timing sheets though.
Especially given most teams will make huge changes to the cars over the next few weeks.There's going to be teething issues. Some of these cars were literally bolted together just in time for their launch.
