As a Mclaren fan, these words from Ron Dennis are very welcome:

"We had a strategy for this year to leave it to the last possible moment to produce our aerodynamic package for the Australian Grand Prix," revealed Dennis.

"That in itself gave us some production challenges and we have really only started to run the car in the last day with the Australian aero package.

"We ran the 2008 rear wing because it was more relevant in its performance to the wing that we are going to have in Australia.

"It doesn't mean you are lost or that you don't know what you are doing."

is the track getting faster or what. I guess those slicks are laying down a lot of rubber.
I did not think it was gonna be this fast today, considering the day started late with fog covering the track.
