A tough day ahead at Silverstone for McLaren who are striving to match the speed of the Red Bull cars
The new modifications which were expected to improve the McLarens performance have not produced the required results and on yesterdays practice laps the Red Bulls were 1.5secs per lap faster, an enormous distance in Grand Prix terms.

The first GP event under the 2010 new rules was good news for the tea industry  what a boring event, you cannot, repeat cannot call that a race.
Perhaps the next GP in Australia which has a shorter lap will provide more of a spectacle but on this long track in Bahrain under these new rules what a bore yesterdays event was.

The month of February 2010 may go down as the start of the new electric car revolution.
Quite appropriately it has started in Japan in the East with giant car makers Nissan and Renault joining forces with the All Japan Ryokan Association (AJRA) who will promote and install electric car charging facilities in their 18,000 hotels.

2010 is not starting out to be a good year for Japanese car makers.
Today Honda announced they are recalling 172,000 Jazz models in the U.K.  over concern to the master power window switch, this follows an incident in S. Africa when a child was killed in a car fire.
