Awesome hearing every interview being "yeah Red Bull will win easily again this year".

:(

I hope Ferrari's pace is strong enough to put up a fight. The data of the long runs suggest that RBR is stronger on the C3, but Ferrari is stronger on the C1, which over a race distance puts them even. It's possible (and likely) that RBR have more pace in reserve, but the gap shouldn't be unsurmountable.

With the lunch break cancelled and 9 teams planning to switch drivers, does anybody know how long it takes a team to "convert" the car from one driver to the other?

Aren't they allowed to use both cars, just not at the same time? Pretty sure I've seen black and yellow t-bars for all the teams.

Alpine seems to have painted the front of their car blue? Lol the fans complaining worked

No, it's actually painted. They even x-ed (or tweeted) about it.

I doubt they use blue flow-vis by the way, since their main color (at least where there is paint) is blue.

I thought I saw a picture of a Williams with orange flow-vis.

But then again, I saw a lot of pictures with flow-vis the past few days, so I might be wrong....

Edit: found it! Sorry for the crappy picture, just out of sheer laziness I took a photo of the picture on my monitor...

I would like this as a livery.
