I admit that after seeing the launch pics of the Lotus, I was pretty sure that Virgin might easily win their rivalry this year, but it appears after the first day they are on track together, Lotus by far impressed more:

- no wings fell off their car
- they ran 76 laps right off the bat on their first day, without stopping on track
- their maligned "test driver" Fairuz was actually quicker than Virgin's team leader Glock, who managed just 10 laps

I would say Lotus is on the score sboard with the (very) early lead!
