F1 test in Barcelona

[Mikacouli]

Hi all
I went last november to spain to shoot pictures of the F1 test.
Together with my brother we received accreditation for the test. A great opportunity because you can get into the pit area and places where only professional photographers can come during the gp weekend. All pictures are shown on two big Belgian F1 sites. Here they are...

First of all thank you guys for the compliments.
second, it's the 2008 season next season :D
and I don't think the test calendar is available yet... I think you'll have to wait a couple of months to know that...

In terms of the racing preferred the 80s, had respect for drivers like Senna, Mansel, Prost, Berger.....In terms of the complete package as a driver and tech....Sch has to be a step above the rest for what he did in and out of the car....although personally didn't like him.....as for today's drivers....a mixed bag....some very good young talent out there....time will tell if they make the next step up......last season probably the best for racing for quite a while....2008 should be interesting
