He needs settle down and take it a bit easier.

impressive! Race engineer to 4 WDCs

Every season they keep saying they took big approaches and they will be better. They brought in Alonso to win (big mistake). Because of this I hope to see them as low as possible. Alonso has performed better than Raikkonen did at Ferrari when the quality of the car is taken into account. That is al...

Not worried at all over the slow times today as they could be doing all kinds of stuff. Furthermore theres plenty of other variables to consider like above mentioned a race engineer who hasnt worked with the car before etc. However, if they fail to do some decent times by the end of tomorow then i m...

Lets see what Kimi can do now! Hopefully steering is adjusted

Finally Kimi is getting out again!

I think this is some kind of sensor. Yes i asumed that as well, its just that it looks so weird and ...

What is going on with the sidepod?!?

Still no laps from Kimi/Lotus..

Wonder what they are up to, setup changes or troubles?!

My impressions were, that Ferrari are pretty much at same pace as Lotus. And while Lotus is said to impress everyone, Ferrari are struggling. In a way this may very well be the case, as the expectations on Ferrari are higher, but they are not further down the order then Lotus in any case. Real queas...

Its a radical concept

Romain did his fast lap on soft tires so im not getting all that carried away by it, infact its not very impressive at all if Button did hes time on the hard ones. But then again, guess its better to be on top then the opposite. Anyone had a chance to look at the pictures from today and see what up...

Romain Grosjean says Lotus's car has not changed at all despite the changes the team has been forced to introduce to it. The team had to pull out of the first Barcelona test last week after it found a problem with the front suspension of the E20. The issue meant the team had to make changes to the c...

Jon Noble‏@NobleF1 Good news for Kimi fans. Lotus boss Eric Boullier says front suspension issue is now finished; updates working fine. Yeah ok, but still they have to make up for 4 days of testing... But they are just sitting around like they have all the time in the world :? (i know they probly h...

Well what did you expect!? YOU broke it..

Argh, 2 more days until we see him in action. Lets hope the Lotus atleast shows enough pace to fight for some decent points. Dont know much about Romain, but hopefully hes a personality that can work well with Kimi getting the team results so they are kept well motivated in the development. Kimi on ...
