http://www.fia.com/sites/default/fil...2013-12-09.pdf I agree the W05 is very nice, probably the best. Believe it or not, the Lotus is growing on me, perhaps its the color scheme more than anything else. W05, RB10 then E22 for me.

The lotus has a much nicer profile and the asymmetrical front end has grown on me quite a bit. Had both noses been exactly the same length I think it would be my favourite.

Red Bell definitely had a terrible four day test. They packed up early among major over heating problems with their engines. They only managed 20 laps in four days. In contrast Alonso logged trouble free 115 laps on day 4 alone.

The rear suspension of the McLaren has cleared FIA regulation. But protests in Melbourne from other teams for sure! Quote:

Very cool. Thanks E90SLAM!
Would you know how the design and FIA verification process works? Can teams submit sketches and specifications before implementing new innovations and designs or do they need to build a complete car before they can have a new design inspected and cleared? I do understand that the final product always need to be cleared but I'm curious if they can bounce ideas of FIA earlier to get a No and not waste time and money if that's the case? |

Last time during the DDD, I heard interview from Ross Brawn; as well as an interview last season with Jo Bauer (FIA technical delegate) and Charlie Whiting . Teams can present their design (to some extend only of course, only brief concept and loose sketches) to the FIA and ask for legality review.

Of course, even when FIA seems to be ok with current design.
Later during scruitneering and technical clarifications during race weekends. What seems to be legal might be banned.

Couldn't been a more exciting pre-season with McLaren besting team Newey with aero innovation, Ferrari and Benz looking reliable and strong while RBR is struggling. Here's for hoping for some frequent and hard fights for pole and race wins 2014! |

They ARE the only team with veto power and that's confirmed.

So does the car no longer need to return to the podium under its own power?

Not sure if any of these details changed in 2014. I think there's additional rule now because of restrictive fuel quantity regulation. Also now FIA also have live data monitoring of fuel flow and/or remaining fuel. If I remember correctly when I watched Ted's Notebook during the Jerez testing.
