Yup, that's exactly what I meant.
How many laps did he test drive the "old" car again?
In any case many more than a pain in the neck (excuse the pun) would have allowed.

He had too much to lose coming back.

Doing 100, 200+ test laps over a week =/ doing 55 consecutive race laps.

And by putting old in quotes are you trying to insinuate that MS tested in this years car, realised it was more then a handful so made up an excuse?

Yeah he did have a lot to lose coming back, but if he wasn't willing then he would have just said no initially ... he didn't feel up to it after testing, that's fair enough really, F1 is a pinnacle sport, you've got to be 100%.
