Smile MP4/18 delayed again!

Due to reliability issues, the MP4/18 debut is delayed til Silverstone. Ferrari must be relieved since the 2003GA isn't exactly a big improvement over the F2002, gives time for some developement.

What confuses me is whether they are planning to run the 18 next year or will they be building another car? (for the British gp )

Unhappy Crash test dummies.

Yep, failed test on 6/19. They gave reasons, I hope it isn't a cover up.
I wish they would get it on the track, I want to see it run!
