lthough initially delayed arriving at Jerez
for the first two days of the Formula One's first winter test, Marussia
unveiled their MR03 chassis late Thursday when second year F1 driver Max
Chilton took the brand new racecar out for a 5-lap shakedown.

And this year's biggest difference for the Banbury-based
squad is the switching of powerplant's from the ubiquitous 'Cossie lump to the
red-headed Ferrari V-6 turbo, whilst the driver pairing is at least unchanged
and perhaps this will be the year that Marussia finally scores ifs first
Formula 1 world championship point?
