Yes it is interesting that Jordan and Minardi are mixed up. Also interesting to see Monteiro and Albers quicker than Karthikeyan and Friesacher. We'll see how they go over the whole weekend
Sorry Ed,But i have to mention this.Since Sachin Tendulkar has met Narain Karthikeyan,his performance has deterioated
(for those who dont know,Sachin Tendulkar is a cricketing Icon & almost God in India)
don't be so superstitious... it goes against your freedom.
Karthikeyan is a professional sportman and to meet an other sportman couldn't make him slow... that even sounds too crazy...nonsense.

It's ok with me but you'll get into trouble with Tim for mentioning cricket here
Rest assured the general forum will be open for the public next week (there I've set a deadline
)

Very early in the season i had mentioned about PT,mayb some of it will start showing in the next few races.
Still not mentioning the team which will use it first
(
N Ferrari are called cheats for this kinda behaviour 
)
Hope i'm wrong here,i really hope
Team orders are illegal so a McLaren official representative wouldn't say such statement. Neither would any other team for that matter.
So lets not treat such news with much seriousness.
If there are to be team orders at any team, they will be done in a hidden way.
I hope that doesn't happen

I hope so too Ed.This season is turning up to be very exciting & dont want this to be ruined by something like this.But i'm sure prefrential treatment by mid season to the driver leading in a particular team would be given,though yes in a hidden way.

Wurz was fastest of the test drivers and Michael was fastest of the race drivers.
It looks like McLaren and Ferrari are fast however with BAR and Renault not setting any times, we don't have any indication of how fast they could be!

Session underway and Wurz first out followed by Albers, Liuzzi, Klien and Montagny

Perhaps we'll set up a thread to discuss team orders and hope everyone is civil about it
