Brainy Posted 15 February 2007 Author Posted 15 February 2007 I wouldn't really take too much interest of testing. BMW always seem to be topping the list.

Brainy Posted 15 February 2007 Author Posted 15 February 2007 Its orange - like the Old Arrows one. The orange like the one on the Arrows **
Floating Fox Posted 15 February 2007 Posted 15 February 2007 Have a look at it on track though. It looks like a poor mans ferrari
Brainy Posted 16 February 2007 Author Posted 16 February 2007 Rules And Regulations 07 Practice And Qualifying At each Grand Prix meeting all race drivers may participate in two one and a half-hour practice sessions on Friday (Thursday at Monaco), another one-hour session on Saturday morning and a qualifying session on Saturday afternoon. In practice, teams are limited to two cars per session. A nominated third driver or either race driver can use these cars in the session. While individual practice sessions are not compulsory, a driver must take part in at least one Saturday session to be eligible for the race. Saturday’s one-hour qualifying session is split into three distinct parts, each with multiple drivers on track simultaneously, and each with the drivers running as many laps as they want: Q1: All 22 cars may run laps at any time during the first 15 minutes of the hour. At the end of the first 15 minutes, the six slowest cars drop out and fill the final six grid places. Q2: After a seven-minute break, the times will be reset and the 16 remaining cars then will then run in a second 15-minute session - again they may complete as many laps as they want at any time during that period. At the end of the 15 minutes, the six slowest cars drop out and fill places 11 to 16 on the grid. Q3: After a further eight-minute break, the times are reset and the final 15-minute session will feature a shootout between the remaining 10 cars to decide pole position and the starting order for the top 10 grid places. Again, these cars may run as many laps as they wish. In the first two 15-minute sessions, cars may run any fuel load and drivers knocked out after those sessions may refuel ahead of the race. However, the top-ten drivers in the final 15-minute session may only replace the fuel they used during that session before the start of the race. If a driver is deemed by the stewards to have stopped unnecessarily on the circuit or impeded another driver during any practice session, then they may drop the driver such number of grid positions that they consider appropriate. Race Day Prior to every Grand Prix the teams and drivers must adhere to a very strict starting procedure. This gets underway 30 minutes before the formation lap when the pit lane is opened. Drivers are then free to complete a reconnaissance lap of the circuit before taking up their grid positions. If a driver wishes to complete additional reconnaissance laps he must pass through the pit lane each time in order to bypass the grid. The pit lane closes 15 minutes prior to the formation lap. Any drivers still in the pit lane at this time will have to start the race from there. Ten minutes before the start the grid must be cleared except for team technical staff, race officials and drivers. With three minutes to go all cars must have their wheels fitted (any car not complying will have to start from the back of the grid or the pit lane). With a minute to go all cars must have their engines running. All personnel must then leave the grid at least 15 seconds before the green lights come on to signal the start of the formation lap. Any driver who has a problem immediately prior to the green light must raise his arm to indicate this. Once the rest of the field has moved off marshals will be push the car into the pit lane. If the driver restarts the car while being pushed he may rejoin the formation lap. During the formation lap no practice starts are allowed. Overtaking is also forbidden unless passing a car that has slowed due to a technical problem. Passed cars may in turn re-overtake in order to regain their grid position if the problem is resolved during the course of the formation lap. However, any driver who is still on the grid when all other cars have moved off on the formation lap, but then subsequently gets away, may not re-pass cars to regain his grid position, but must instead start from the back. Once all cars have safely taken up their grid positions at the end of the formation lap five red lights will appear in sequence at one-second intervals. These red lights are then extinguished to signal the start of the race. If a driver has a problem on the grid immediately prior to the start he must raise his arm and the start will be aborted. A new formation lap, which will count towards the race distance, will then be completed. The only exceptions to these start procedures are connected to the weather. If it starts to rain in the three minutes prior to the start then the abort lights will come on and the starting procedure will revert to the 10-minute point to allow teams to change to appropriate tyres. If the weather is exceptionally bad the race director may choose to abort the start and resume the starting procedure only when conditions have improved. Alternatively, he may decide to start the race behind the safety car.
Brainy Posted 19 February 2007 Author Posted 19 February 2007 So, nearly 25 days until the season begins? Who are you tipping for success this year?
isaidno Posted 20 February 2007 Posted 20 February 2007 Alonso should take the title. Outside bet is Robert Kubica, BMW. He looked really good last year and has flown in testing so far. BMW should win races this year.
City_4_Life Posted 20 February 2007 Posted 20 February 2007 Mark Webber will win it this year. Well he didnt have the best of seasons last year, but this year he will come out all guns blazing and take the title quite easily. If not then I think Alonso will win the title.
isaidno Posted 20 February 2007 Posted 20 February 2007 2007 Title Odds K Raikkonen 6/4 F Alonso 2/1 F Massa 4/1 J Button 12/1 H Kovalainen 14/1 G Fisichella 16/1 L Hamilton 20/1 R Barrichello 33/1 J Trulli 50/1 R Kubica 50/1 R Schumacher 50/1 N Heidfeld 66/1 A Wurz 100/1 D Coulthard 100/1 M Webber 100/1 N Rosberg 100/1 S Speed 250/1 V Liuzzi 250/1 A Davidson 500/1 A Sutil 500/1 C Albers 500/1 T Sato 500/1 From Ladbrokes

Brainy Posted 20 February 2007 Author Posted 20 February 2007 Like somebody has said, BMW have been quickest in practice on plenty of occasions so far.
Brainy Posted 20 February 2007 Author Posted 20 February 2007 Interesting to see that Scott Speed is included considering he hasn't been confirmed as a driver
dandannieldanok Posted 21 February 2007 Posted 21 February 2007 66/1 - Not looking too good Hows about 250/1
