Weekly roundup
Well, I have been rather busy this week (sorry, but I am working on my Ph.D.), so I haven't been posting as prolifically as I usually do, so I am going to give a brief and glossy roundup of this week in F1.
For a list of the 2008 rule changes, see this article on formula1.com.
- Max Mosely praised Flavio Briatore on his management style, and his ability to win both championships with a relatively small budget - are we going to see the FIA adopt some sort of "standard management" to go along with standard ECUs?
- Renault were fastest in testing at Paul Ricard, but only a tenth faster than McLaren. BMW were also there, as were Toyota, who were working on their tyre issues. They are still struggling by the looks of it, as the fastest that Zonta could manage was over 1.7 seconds slower than Kovalainen in the Renault.
- Cosworth think they have solved the problem that blighted Rosberg in Malaysia. Well good.
- Renault joined in talks with the FIA over the rule changes.
- Oh yes, and the new rule changes the FIA are trying to mandate.
