I know it's no real reflection (or is it?) as it'd early days..............

And suddenly the Ilmor seems where it belongs.

Hope not!

Yup 1:35+ is way off the pace but allegedly it's an 'evaluation' ride on the Ilmor for McWilliams and Pitt. McWilliams beat McCoy's best lap in Sunday's race.

McCoy was beset with problems in the race on Sunday and pretty much limped around (relatively speaking of course!) the whole time unfortunately.

I am a little surprised that McCoy isn't at the test for Ilmor as well, seeing as he has the most experience of the bike so far.

Like I said in another post, Ilien wants small riders but the final choice may be down to outside sponsors.
