Racing slicks...
Racing slicks...
Massa's best time of 1:18.339 put him 2.7 seconds ahead of Honda test driver Alex Wurz, who also set his best time on slick tyres.
McLaren's Pedro de la Rosa, who also tried out slicks, was third fastest, but over three seconds off Massa's pace. The Spaniard was the busiest man today with 113 laps covered.
http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/66639All drivers, except BMW's Nick Heidfeld and Toyota's Timo Glock, sampled the new tyres today.
1) Pole and Race Winner?
2) BMW are leading the constructors championship, will they still be there after this race?
3) Where will the following finish? Fisichella, Alonso, Hamilton and Glock.
4) What lap will the fastest lap be set on? (Closest guess gets a free smile)
5) Honda are meant to introduce a new update here, will it push them into the top 10?
6) How many Safety Cars will we see this race?

23 April 2008
The Spanish Grand Prix could become the first wet race in the 2008 Formula 1 season. Forecasts in Spain predict rain on Saturday and Sunday while it should remain dry all day on Friday.
Formula 1 teams are used to brilliant weather in Spain, but this year's Spanish Grand Prix will not be as sunny as usual. Temperatures are expected to stay as low as 19 degrees Celsius on Friday and even a bit lower on Saturday and Sunday.
Last week rain interrupted the team's test at Circuit de Catalunya.
Yea yea yea, they said that about malaysia too, even halfway through the race. I'll believe it when i see kimi spear into a wall at 170M/H.

Why is Mclaren so full of fail this year?
Well Matt, the answer lies in a chamber, buried in the middle of upperclass Chelsea, full of the resounding cries punctuated by whips and moaning, and of course, 'more of ze punishment!' from a tired old man well past his sell by date. That enough?
