Just remember in 2004, Ferrari were not the tops in testing, but they blew everybody away during the season. Testing does not mean anything, not trying to be rude with the last comment.

Well, last winter Renault and McLaren showed form, and they kept it through the season. In 2004 BAR were good, and it was clearly visible in winter testing.

I'd say the current top three teams are Renault, Honda and Ferrari, in that order.

Its seems like its no longer what it was back prior to 1993 when teams would sand bag and not show what they have until the first race. Now because the compettion is so close, there is no longer room to play games with sandbagging. No, I believe the times will reflect atleast what will happen the first part of the season. On a secondnote, it looked good to see Williams at the front of the test times today. It says alot about that Cosworth engine they have in the back of that car. I think BMW screwed williams last year and they know it. I am not by the way a Williams fan, but A JPM.
To finish first, first you must finish.
