Australian Grand Prix champion Fernando Alonso says he does not yet have a car capable of winning next month's season-opening Formula One race at Albert Park.

Despite setting the pace in testing at both Jerez last week and in Barcelona this week, Alonso says he is concerned about the car's performance.

The Spanish reigning world champion says at the moment the MP4-22 looks better than it goes.

"The times have turned out well and everyone is aware of us but the car is not ready for Australia and the days are running out," Alonso told Spain's Telecinco television channel.

"It is not going to win at the moment. For the time being the thing I like most about it is the colour."

"At the moment the handling isn't right, it needs more traction and more power," Alonso said before the Barcelona test.

Oh, dear. :laugh:

Williams are looking a better bet then RBR at the moment. LOL im tempted to put money on Williams to beat RBR most of the season. They shouldnt, but they will for no other reason then Webber leaving and his recent smack talk about his former team.

Honda are slwo along with RBR. Honda usually play the off season game. Perhaps this eyar they are confident enough in their car that they are going to go out and jsut do the job?

All i know is im starting to worry about the pace of RBR. They are not doing as many laps, and they are off the pace as well?

Finally good news. DC put some fresh rubber on the RBR and i assume low tanks and actually tried to punch out some quick short tuns. Tops the timesheet for the final day of testing at Barcelona, beating all the big boys.

So here is to hoping that the car has the poterntial for some pace, though Webbers car broke down twice :wave:

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
