Fernando Alonso and I both agree with you

I'd like to see Mercedes strong, but I'm not so sure they've got the pace. They certainly looked good on last test day, but it was also reported that they scored the fast laps in qualifying trim. (Then again, that could be BS).

Time will tell.

LOL..

No wonder Bernie get's away with this BS, 2011 is about rehab Stooley's image , the world knows he's slower than Rosberg then bang a case of viagra and redbull and he's back on form!


Obvious Alonso is setting the stage

Stooley will be allowed and then sent home for full retirement .. Henjoy....

If MS and Mercedes really do find their form this will be a very exciting and interesting year.

Looks like 2011 is starting out the way 2010 left off.

I thought last year was great a little bit of everything, except for the childish name calling around here...
