Today was the final pre-season test for all the teams ahead of the Australian Grand Prix in less than 2 weeks time (whoop!) and here’s a collection of images from the final day. This is as close as to how the cars will look in Melbourne that we’ll get to see until Friday practice where we will finally learn just how quick each of the cars really are. Exciting times!
Speaking of times, here’s the run down from today’s running… read into them what you will, it’s impossible to tell exactly who’s quick and who isn’t until the drivers hit the asphalt down under. Still, speculation is fun! Don’t forget to checkout our look at the technical developments here too.
