I'd read that Merc was going with a new/update aero package as a result of the Barcelona testing, but my god, yeah that 0.8s gap to P2 is huge.

I havent watched FP2 yet...but really looking good for Alfa if those paces are close to "real". I'd have to image that Ferrari pulls even with Merc today and gaps Red Bull a little bit. But looking at Toro Rosso maybe Honda really has found a better engine since they look strong as well (0.1s back of Haas).

And lol @ Williams...I used to love them, but they're bordering on being a caricature. 3.9s back in top lap performance. I was looking forward to Kubica as well...
