MigueLP said on 20th February 2010, 21:55
anyone notice the aero device on front of the mercedes tyres ? on one of the shumachers pics it was visible some rubber stuck on it
JProc said on 20th February 2010, 22:32
Thats the airintake for the brakes.
Invoke said on 19th February 2010, 15:26
You have been getting some fantastic pictures during the testing Keith!
theRoswellite said on 19th February 2010, 15:32
Keith….I really appreciate the photo connection to the test sessions. They add another level of identification with what is going on, but I have a question.
Are you doing some (all…none)of the photography yourself? I have done racing photos (small business) and continue in sports photography today; so I would be interested in details concerning the photography…if it is being done by you or someone who could comment.
In any case, you have added a nice element to your site, and I’m very glad to see you attending events in person. Keep up the great work.

Keith only took the pictures of the test he attended. All other pictures are from the team sites or sites that sell those pictures. Below the pictures Keith always gives credit to the source. The ones he took were copyrighted as “F1Fanatic”.

Keith, why is there never any pics of Mclaren???
Tommy_F said on 19th February 2010, 15:44
The don’t show up in pics…maybe it’s coz of the flow-viz they smeared on the car
Patrickl said on 19th February 2010, 23:06
Like vampires you mean?
Maybe they just don’t have a reflection. Would a non DSLR camera (with no mirror) capture their image?
Monad said on 20th February 2010, 6:48
Too fast for the camera.
Steve said on 19th February 2010, 16:37
worried about Merc,
everyday, redbull or mclaren or ferrari is ahead of them…..
the guys who built the terrible bar and honda cars….. have built this car…
remember, the 2008 car was soo bad, they gave up on it almost immediately and started the 2009 car… ,,, and then had the DDD working the best out of everything,
but during 2009, mclaren completely outdeveloped these guys…
now its 2010, and i think without them hiring new top guys, they’re in trouble
Calum said on 19th February 2010, 16:48
These guys built the Brawn which was initialy amazing!
Bertie said on 19th February 2010, 16:52
Also Brawn is notorious for sand bagging.
George said on 19th February 2010, 19:01
Interesting point, the BAR cars really weren’t bad though. In ’04 they had the second best car and ’06 as Honda was pretty good, they just had two terrible years after that.
MEmo said on 20th February 2010, 2:37
I´m getting that impression, too: Merc is maybe the fourth best car! Testing isn´t a valid way of measuring where all the teams are, but I´m also perceiving that the other three teams are better… let´s hope they´re not!
Rob Wilson said on 19th February 2010, 16:44
To early to say Mercedes are in trouble, we’ll find out on Sat 13th of March
Sebring Mike said on 19th February 2010, 21:00
Brawn and Schumacher are both sand-baggers from way back and they do go way back. Lets see when the red lights go off and the red mist descends – at Bahrain.
BasCB said on 19th February 2010, 21:47
That is a really big smile on Alonso’s face there!
Looks a little bit like early pictures of Vettel smiling after getting to drive in F1.
Patrickl said on 19th February 2010, 23:08
Yeah, I noticed that too. I was wondering if it was just because he heard a joke or because he’s genuinly happy with the car.
Kieran said on 20th February 2010, 4:18
haha yes indeed, although he races for ferrari in formula one… id be smiling too
Dan Bigham said on 19th February 2010, 22:19
Keith, could you look into getting McLaren pictures? Your current photographer seems to have a phobia of them! Must be scared of how they are going to dominate
Prisoner Monkeys said on 20th February 2010, 1:35
Why no shots of the T127?
MEmo said on 20th February 2010, 2:40
My thought exactly! Some great pictures of the Lotus, please, Keith?
Mac v2 said on 20th February 2010, 4:36
Superb Pictures! I’m trully surprised. If you are behind the lenses Keith Hats Off!
Great Site, I’m already hooked!
Schip said on 20th February 2010, 15:39
all is great pictures!
thx~
raja said on 22nd February 2010, 18:42

Chaz said on 2nd March 2010, 20:37
I do so enjoy the action photo’s in general…
