As the third and final day of the in season test at Mugello came to end, Lotus-Renault's Romain Grosjean was once again the quickest around the Tuscan circuit. Close behind was RBR's Sebatian Vettel who finally took over from his teammate, with Ferrari's Fernando Alonso rounding out the top three.

Have the wet tires changed from last year? If not, they could be using 2011 and 2012 tires together to use up old outdated rubber from last year....bhallg2k wrote:If you wanted to test the differences between two different specs of tires, you'd make two runs, one with each full set. Otherwise, the data collected will be badly skewed, because F1 cars have four wheels, so four tires are required to gather a complete profile of their performance.
Hopefully JT will be around at some point to tell me just how wrong I am.
EDIT: Could the green marking actually be Flo-vis?
Shouldn't that be "what are McLaren and Red Bull trying not to do?"raymondu999 wrote:What are McLaren and Red Bull trying to do? They've done half the laps of some of the other teams
You taking any videos Zoro?zoro_f1 wrote:the track is dry. perfect conditions for testing.
They are 2012 spec tyres. The only thing is that some were produce before they decided on 2012 tyre markings. The only difference is that some few months older than others. This question was put to Pirelli yesterday.Mandrake wrote:Have the wet tires changed from last year?

Be assured they are all 2012 specs, only that they got the colours put on before our marketing folks decided to change them for 2012!
I fear that first hypothesis is a little bit unrealisticprince wrote:When you look at live timings from f1tests.co.cc, things are really strange. There is not one driver whose timing goes down as the laps progress. Drivers are starting at a certain laptime, goes a little slower than that, comes back to similar times as they started and in some cases, goes even faster than they started !!! Does it mean, all the teams have CONQUERED tyre degration? OR just that everyone is underperforming in the starting lapses?
