It was a strong debut for MCR in Australia, with both drivers finishing in the points. For MCR, it was the team's first race, and to come out of it tied for fourth in the constructor's race is a great accomplishment. "We have felt that we really need to focus on finishing third in the constructor's battle," says team manager, James Menzies. "After the first race, we feel that's not unreasonable with both of our drivers showing great talent.

MCR will be testing later this week at Spain, in hopes of developing the car further. The team has refused to indicate how much testing they will do, but Menzies admits "We'll be there, at Spa and we will be busy."
