"Don't come knocking when the caravan's rocking" would always be my policy on motorhome movement, were this actually my job, which again, fortunately it isn't ...

It wouldn't be Nicole, it'd be Roscoe going mad.

I was more referring to the type of morning movements that are brought on by weetabix or any other cereals with a considerable fibre content.

Get the feeling/impression that I am going to be one rather happy Merc GP fan as this season progresses :)

You may laugh Fabs, but it is now March and Ross Brawn has yet to announce that he expects Mercedes to be fighting for wins and the championship this year. Somethings up with that.

Until the brakes stop working...

No, I am looking forward to seeing Lewis make mincemeat of the McLarens on a regular basis too.

Then we'll see who regrets what.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Well Lewis has that ability to be well over half a second faster than his team-mate over one lap on a regular basis. That'll help Mercedes.

Trouble is, like McLaren they also have the magical ability to bollocks it up.

McLaren is going to be the faster car.

Lewis half a second per lap quicker? Some folks might be in for a surprise ;) - Lewis is certainly the better, but Nico's data suggests he's not going to be quite as far back as you'd imagine. One thing is for sure: they are already being super competitive with each other, especially in the simulator ;)

The McLaren's struggling right now, particularly on long runs. I reckon Red Bull and Lotus are the teams to look out for, with Merc a snick ahead of McLaren and Ferrari... well, god knows. Some people in the paddock think they're struggling a bit, but Alonso's quite confident.

Oo-er.

Was it on a low-speed part of the track?

I mean not generally, but places like Abu Dhabi Hamilton seems to be electric.

I heard that McLaren's suspension is what is causing headaches and Ferrari is struggling with tyres.

Losing a wheel while DRS open. I wouldn't want to be the one cleaning his race suit.
