Great video showcasing Cadillac and their approach to the first test. This is very exciting as they are really taking this on so well. It would be amazing if Herta did well in F2 and could sign for Cadillac in 2027. Dare to freakin dream baby!! =D> =D>
Well, the video I would call mostly marketing info, but true: It would be great if Caddi is doing well and not just ending up at the end of the grid. And Herta would be an amazing personality if he moves up and is competitive.
At least we can expect that if Bot and Per can drive the car, it should be also good for Herta.

Maybe a topic for the not yet existing testing thread, but also maybe well up here: What do we expect to see in testing in Barcelona? The track is unfortunately well covered from outside, there is nearly no "fence pictures" possible as far as I know. So how much leaked info will we get to see if anyone is strongly struggling or anyone runs like a clockworks?

My thoughts are that if everyone is doing ok then we'll get "official" leaked images. But if things aren't going well then we won't get much at all aside from the usual PR bumph.

According to Autoracer, Cadillac is at Silverstone for a filming day. The article doesn't mention if they are currently on track today or they will do it tomorrow.
It's a little signal that Ferrari's PU actually fires up when attached to a car :D

They wanted to do a shakedown but apparently failed:

Pullrod front suspension. Do they use Ferrari suspension?
I think pullrod rear as well.
Also very very small air intakes.
