The double points will only be awarded to the last year, Bernie tried to extend this rule to 3 races but F1 Strategy Group vetoed that plan. Marusia managed full race distance today and they are looking much better then their rivals Caterham.

Kimi Raikkonen Ferrari 1:41.336 12 laps 9. Marcus Ericsson Caterham 1:43.602 33 laps 10. Max Chilton Marussia 1:46.672 4 laps 11. Valtteri Bottas Williams no time 55 laps Red Bull issues continue on after their car stopped after 30 laps with the team saying it was due to a "mechanical issue we hadn’t encountered before". Lewis Hamilton showed that the cars are only 2 seconds off the last years pole. Last years pole set by his teammate Rosberg was 1:32.3. Here is a chart showing how much distance teams have covered in testing so far. Max Chilton can jump really high. David Coulthard looks odd in drag.

Pretty boring first day so far. Sebastian Vettel's Redbull stopped on the track in the first 10 minutes. The hole that they cut out last time in Jerez is still there on the sidepod to help with cooling. Newey has tried to fix the cooling issue the issues by having the wider gap between the exhaust and the hood. Lotus has finally debuted their car. Kamui posted a short little clip on his instagram of the car's going out of the pits. Look at that Ferrari smoke (probably overfilled with oil). http://instagram.com/p/klnoTPw7lI/# Here are the final results of the day: 1 Hulkenberg (Force India) 11m36.880s (78 laps) 2 Alonso (Ferrari) 1m37.879s (64 laps) 3 Hamilton (Mercedes) 1m37.908s (74 laps) 4 Magnussen (McLaren) 1m38.295s (81 laps) 5 Vettel (Red Bull) 1m40.224s (14 laps) 6 Sutil (Sauber) 1m40.443s (82 laps) 7 Frijns (Caterham) 1m42.534s (68 laps) 8 Kvyat (Toro Rosso) 1m44.346s (5 laps) 9 Grosjean (Lotus) 1m44.832s (8 laps) 10 Massa (Williams) no time (5 laps) 11 Bianchi (Marussia) no time (3 laps)
