Yes agree'd. They should not be so smug early on though. I think alot of issues are going to come up for all of them and just wait till they get to Sepang and the heat/humidity there!
Plus now the drivers have to deal with harder torque friendly tires with less grip. Mistakes will be common more so than last Im betting!

The driving will be different, but we are looking at 20 best drivers in the world, they can adapt to the new driving quick and easy.


If you look at all the teams powered by renault, many of those are still having issues, even renault had the last 2 weeks to try to solve the problems.

The good is, they are getting more mileage and hopefully the 3rd/last one will be a smooth one.
