Where did anyone say anything about lap times, the quote was about the quality of the build of the car. (IE F2 is several seconds faster than F3, but is no where near the standard of F3. F2 is several £100k cheaper though, what is GP3's plus, less track time and testing??)Surely drivers will want to experience the car before signing up to the series. All the drivers I have spoken to about the series have been surprised by the budget, and it has just strenghtened F3's position. Testing in March is to late as drivers will want to try before buying, and make there own opinion. Not many people are fool enough just to believe a series PR I would think. Are the teams just going to hang about waiting until the third month of 2010 to see if they can find drivers??? I think not as by then teams in F3 would have secured any budgeted driver.. Why have they not delivered 1 car for each team by now? To me it shows a lack of preparation and priority...IMO
