Again only Williams and Spyker involved but here are the times anyway.

1. ROSBERG Williams 1m21.231s
2. WURZ Williams 1m21.328s
3. ALBERS Spyker 1m23.069s
4. SUTIL Spyker 1m23.124s

Those times for Williams look pretty decent and Spyker look to be doing a solid job and won't embarrass themselves this season.

i think only massa has been faster, though testing has moved on and so have everyone's times.

can't help feeling that williams will have difficulty sustaining this performance throughout the season, either because they are flattering themselves now or through lack of development funds during the season.

i hope i'm wrong.

Given the field... I would have expected nothing less...

just like Schumacher at Indy 2005 or Audi at Le Mans post 1999... anything less than top slot would have been almost impossible not to achieve...

You never know. They have shifted around their staff and also have new sponsors. I still back them to spring a surprise or two. But seeing as they are Williams, it wouldn't surprise me one bit.

A lot of it just depends on their budget, you have to have at least $300 million in F1 these days to be a title contender, or even a serious challenger for wins.
