Going by those times I think you need to include Toyota in the competitive bracket, as they outpaced Renault and BAR.

Trulli's lap was an ultra low-fuel job, but yes it looks like we have a lot of teams with reasons to be positive.

The final pre-season test Ferrari did at Imola when Bridgestone suddenly found about 2 seconds a lap did indicate they would be extremely strong...
