The Merc tweets are hysterical. I think they are just recycling Ross' excuses from last season.

Surprise! they don't actually have a new car. They'll be using all their new personnel as a human car. Lewis will sit directly on Paddy Lowe's ass, and they might bring Prost on board to utilize the step nose.

To be fair, hideous does not count out an F1 car livery from being authentic.

The stupid thing is, they could have slapped the site up on an Amazon elastic server for a couple of hundred dollars, left it running on that overnight, then switched back tomorrow - nobody would have been any the wiser and it'd handle the load perfectly fine.

No, but a great big image in the corner saying 100% non official does give it away a bit ;)

thats what happens when you focus on the big guys that head the department, but stick with people that dont know how to get job done in positions that really count.

this stuff has been happening in Brackley for a long long time, although usually with their car

Think I've found out why their site keeps crashing. They forgot to employ someone to build it properly

Michael was visiting, to wish everyone good luck, and tripped over the power cord for the server because he couldn't see it. When Ross asked "What happened there?" he replied, "my shoes wouldn't stop".

So, I take it they will focus on the 2014 model already? that would explain why Hamilton had all those cautious statements, if even a Mercedes online launch can't be done properly.
Or maybe I'm just over-reacting...
Or not...
