Lets wait until tomorrow. It might just be the Ferrari, Red Bull and McLaren show after tomorrow - can't have new regulations letting other teams dominate can we?

I'm awaiting the the expected decision on the diffuser today before I make any prediction.
Knowing the FIA they'll declare it illegal because Ross Brawn, being an ex Ferrari employee, nicked the design from the current Ferrari designers, using Fernando Alonsso as a go between and Hamilton will be penalised for the rest of the season for being part of a team that helped him beat Massa to the world championship last season because Ross Brawn wasn't part of the Ferrari team.

Reading the news from yesterday, the crux of Ferrari's argument seemed to be that Ross Brawn doesn't work for them any more, which is unfair, and that someone else is winning, which is unfair on them, McLaren and Renault!

Interesting photo posted on Autosport.
It could be a photoshop. However Ferrari conducted one of the 8 allowable straightline tests at Viarano last week so it could be from there.
It wouldn't surprise me if 2 or 3 of the non diffuser teams appear at China or Bahrain with them. Mclaren clearly have the idea in mind with their normal diffuser as it has a semi circle shaped pod in the middle which looks very simple to cut out to create a tunnel simmilar to williams.
Red bull are the only team who will struggle to design an effective one quickly as their rear suspension is a push rod setup and the whole rear end is designed to be as small and inclusive as possible.
The running theory is photo shop lol.

Sorry to everyone, I've had a bit of a traumatic few weeks, my Grandfather passed away and it was his funeral today.. so that's been me tied up pretty much since the F1 season started..and it's been all I can do to keep the comp going..
Rest assured I'm on it.. I just need to lift last years from the lounge PC and transfer it to the laptop and I'll be good to go.
Don't feel bad for asking either, none of you were to know
Cheers lads!
