I reckon he has gone as fast as the car can at this stage.

Here's hoping your wrong . . . but .05 off FA isnt a bad "as fast as the car can go". It would certainly put Williams up the front with Renault and Honda.

yeah . . . another fastest time, but every time had a car failure at Valencia, 1 each for MF1, Williams and RedBull and both Mclaran and Renaults cars stopped.

I havent looked forward to race 1 as much as I am this year. It is shaping up nicely.

Bahrain - only a little over 3 weeks away . . . :D :D :D

I wouldn't be too hard on Nico, he must have a bit of skill for Frank to pluck him outta Gp2....and look what happened last time frank stuck a rookie in the car.....Mr Montoya....and lets not forget Mr Coulthard....oh yeah...and we also got Jenson"I'm so vain even though I havent won a single race but I think I am world Champion"Button..... :roll:

T-K, you forgot the last World Champion for Williams and the one who stuck his car on Pole on debut and nearly won his debut race :D

Nico is good and will be the toughest teammate to Webber so far.

Well hello there. :D
I am very pleased to see the new FW 28 doing nicely in testing lately. Will be good to see Sir F have a competitive car and team again.
Also enjoying McLaren still dealing with rubbish motors, how long can it last :bouncey:

Why speculate if the Honda was good . . . in a little over 2 months, we will know it has been good for a LOONNGGG time. . . just with a guy that cant drive fast, and a guy that cant drive at all.

Rubens will take the award for most improved in 06, followed by MW by a cats whisker. And Blinkybill will become the most intelligent and respect F1 commentator around . . . 1 step closer to world domination . . . 1 step closer :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

:danger:
Over 2 months :shock: :shock: Why ? Have they postponed Bahrain :lol: :lol:


I sooo wish that Rubens would be the most improved in 2006 but I am afraid Rubens has 5 years of data to erase. In the first few races he will naturally follow Button. He's just used to it :shock: :shock:

At least the Williams will have the same No. of gears as the others, and MW might be able to start within 2 seconds of the green :twisted:
