    They have some highlights of car unveilings too.


    Is it streamed somewhere?

    "...this season the first test will be run behind closed doors, before
    the public will get their first chance to get up close and personal
    with the new-look grid during the second test in Bahrain."

    Wow! Are they worried that the new cars are going to need some major work to make them viable race
    machines or something? Normally they'll take all of the publicity they can get. --

    Maybe as a result of not sorting the Masi fuck up they're expecting to have to deal with protests
    from team/s as well and they don't want to give that publicity? Either way it's an odd thing for F1
    to do.
