Do you have any insight as to which of the new teams actually have cars at this point?  Are the new teams allowed to test, or are they also restricted until January.

Too many drivers are out of contracts and available. Some teams and drivers perhaps have made their decisions already but are waiting for the season to end before making any announcements. There is no testing allowed until January anyway.</p> Nothing in the regulations, just everybody is waiting for the drivers market to move, perhaps also for the future of BMW Sauber to get sorted out.

By the way, BMW in their new identity still hasn’t secured a place on the grid next year.
