Well, looking forward to the McLaren Vs Renault show. Will anyone else throw their hat into the ring?
Williams showed some pace in the last test they did, claiming to have found some speed in spring/swaybar adjustments. But that was also on the old car from what I understand. Pizzonia was horribly slow in the "new" B car the day b4. I can't work this out at all.

Well Pizzonia is horribly slow. That might have something to do with it.

Dunno about u guys, but im looking forward to a wet race... havent seen one for a long time! -Was the last one where Fisi won?
Only problem with a wet race is you can bet your a#% that Schumey will make his way to the podium, if not the top of it!
