They're running now at least.
But it's hard to overlook Merc and McLaren's form thus far... Mighty damn impressive.

Lotus only did 18 laps and was 6 sec off the pace.

Grosjeans actual press answers:

"How's the car?"

"The seat feels OK!"

"What have you learned?"

"We know the DRS works..."

They were willing to admit other teams had addressed these in Jerez but maintained they missed it on purpose because nothing would have been gained at the first test.

i think it's much worse than that

"we chased a phantom quantum deal because we were that desperate and haven't paid our bills in months and all of our other potential title sponsors fell through so we will cling to the Lotus title because it sounds good even though it brings us in exactly zero dollars."
