i think that no matter how good they thought their car was they were going to play down expectations big time. were not going to get any love from anyone in the media regardless. so i think that its possible, maybe we'll have a better idea on friday. i definately think that they have made a big improvement since last year but its impossible to tell where everyone else is yet.

"McLaren end another day at the top of the standings as Carlos Sainz posts the fastest time, but it's Ferrari's struggles that will dominate the agenda. " - Classic Sky F1 bias.

If we are really .7 behind lead teams... then that calls for celebration. :D

This is only race pace though, Quali difference is probably larger with engine modes etc.

Good day in the office, apart from that 1 minor hiccup. But all in all a good day!

Good day for McLaren 130 laps and quickest. Just a small water pressure issue in the morning, but the rest was good.

I'm almost inclined to believe they're faster than even they thought... #-o
What makes you believe they are faster and we are not? Or do you mean the journalists thought that we are faster than they thought?
