Nice Gate! I just came on to check if a thread was made or not.
Finally the season is starting. Apparently McLaren have abandoned their exhaust and floor and developing a simpler one. So, it seems like the top two teams to beat are Ferrari and Red Bull. Who has the advantage over the other is still unknown, but I would place my bets on Red Bull.

I remember seeing an article that Massa had said that the DRS was like second nature to him now. I assume the top drivers will instinctively activate them immediately during practices and qualifying.

I wouldn't throw McLaren out yet. Also hoping for good things for Mercedes GP, interested to see how Schumi does now that he has helped develop his car. Ferrari is going to very intense this year.

So, they can use the movable wing an unlimited amount of times for practice and quali, but are then restricted in the actual race?
