Spanish GP: Friday, Saturday FP sessions thread

Charlie said it was clever, and, he had to "believe" it was not part of the flap controller to be included in the measurement.

And, have you changed now, I thought you said earlier that CW had to "prove" it, now you're saying it's up to us to protest and prove he's wrong?

I agree with you.This behavior is a typical politician who wants to harm some and benefit others.

Don't think he said anything about believe He said it was a clever loophole, and you are a keen supporter of FIA closing loopholes, so you should be full of praise for them today

No I didn't change, I was talking about the diffusers that the FIA believe, they have outlawed our wing not based on believe but on the rules, the fact Ferrari have not challenged it suggests they know the FIA was right.

Teams have challenged the FIA's believe that diffuser is moving aero, which suggests they know the FIA is wrong as the rules stand.

Soft tyres obviously for the German and he ends the final practice session at Barcelona just 0.084s clear of team-mate Webber.

I'm a fierce supporter of the FiA/officials becoming competent and consistent. I think the things we've discussed perfectly show their failings. But, you're entitled to support the way they have handled things, I'm just going to disagree with you.

Anyway, time to hook into dinner - salami, prosciutto, cheeses, bread and a great radicchio salad all washed down with a nice Aussie Shiraz, that should prime me for Qualifying perfectly - anyone want to join me? You're all welcome

[Greig]

To support something surely you need some foundation to base it on, I am willing to hear all these incompetent inconsistencies but you never seem to bring any to the debate

I think no matter what they do you will find reason to complain about them

edit: BBC just reported the FIA will change the rules to make the engine maps illegal, they would not need to change the rules if what they believe is true now would they

logged in just now to see that our wing has been deemed illegal.

No controversies... just want to know if its going to affect our pace massively? Was our pre race confidence based on this wing? how badly is this going to affect us?

depends if we get the setup done without it properly. i dont think it was a mgic bullet, but it can affect the balance quite a lot.

Ferrari used soft tires and could have saved...the car is not right without the new improvements prohibiteds by Charlie...I think tomorrow we have very complicated race. :(

Grande Alonso! :)
