They make it sound like a small update but half a second!!! If they are right that's fantastic. And even more to come, all is not lost at HRT! My bet is they plan to better exploit that tiny Williams gearbox. Is it last years model or this years?

“@HRTF1Team: Look at the green stuff on the front wing. It is an aerodynamics' indicator http://t.co/t4roSYoY

Black end fences are definitely new.

Hi to everybody!

I've been for a while reading your posts and trying to learn the technical aspects from this amazing cars.

What I want to say it's already said on the previous post. I think that this "new" FW produced by HRT in fact is the one used in the F111.

Yes, is not exactly the same one. Endplates for the upper element are different than the ones used last year. It' like a mix of old and new stuff.

Excellent job by Pedro today to get the HRT home just 1 lap down, pathetic driving by karthikeyan getting lapped by glock.I am sure HRT have started evaluating options to replace him.

They are just running with a base suspension at present. They hope to have the J Dampers on the front suspesion for Bahrain. They are adding small things every race, small things that may only be a tenth in raw pace, but maybe in race trim a tenth more as we have seen with Williams this year, race trim is worth more than Quali trim.

You mean they had one for China?
If English isn't your first language, it might be helpful to know that if they brought a new system and you have heard about it a better word that 'accordingly' would be 'apparently.' Or you could have meant accordingly. Sometimes it can be hard to tell! Still, I wish I could speak German half as well as the Germans here speak English!
