Rain is expected.

I was impressed with the BMW lap times! Held P1 and P2 up until 2 minutes remaining of prac..:-)
You can't ever really read into practice lap times though. Any updates on the qualifying / race weather conditions?? |
Qualifying:
Pos Driver Team Q1 Q2 Q3 1. Vettel Toro Rosso-Ferrari (B) 1:35.464 1:35.837 1:37.555 2. Kovalainen McLaren-Mercedes (B) 1:35.214 1:35.843 1:37.631 3. Webber Red Bull-Renault (B) 1:36.001 1:36.306 1:38.117 4. Bourdais Toro Rosso-Ferrari (B) 1:35.543 1:36.175 1:38.445 5. Rosberg Williams-Toyota (B) 1:35.485 1:35.898 1:38.767 6. Massa Ferrari (B) 1:35.536 1:36.676 1:38.894 7. Trulli Toyota (B) 1:35.906 1:36.008 1:39.152 8. Alonso Renault (B) 1:36.297 1:36.518 1:39.751 9. Glock Toyota (B) 1:35.737 1:36.525 1:39.787 10. Heidfeld BMW Sauber (B) 1:35.709 1:36.626 1:39.906 11. Kubica BMW Sauber (B) 1:35.553 1:36.697 12. Fisichella Force India-Ferrari (B) 1:36.280 1:36.698 13. Coulthard Red Bull-Renault (B) 1:36.485 1:37.284 14. Raikkonen Ferrari (B) 1:35.965 1:37.522 15. Hamilton McLaren-Mercedes (B) 1:35.394 1:39.265 16. Barrichello Honda (B) 1:36.510 17. Piquet Renault (B) 1:36.630 18. Nakajima Williams-Toyota (B) 1:36.653 19. Button Honda (B) 1:37.006 20. Sutil Force India-Ferrari (B) 1:37.417 You're not seeing wrong. Kubica is P11, Raikkonen P14 and Hamilton P15. Those 3 weren't able to set a fast enough time in Q2 as conditions were worsening throughout the session. Vettel is also the youngest in F1 history to secure pole position. What a race we should have tomorrow! |
wat a moment kimi had at around 9 mins wow prettty close at ascari. wrong tires for a few people
|
Weird results! Well done Vettel. He's really finding his feet in the latter stages of this season.
|
Well done to massa too.....his 10th time in Q2 was great. But Vettel was amazing!!
|
I predict some flying carbon fiber in the first lap.
|
Today Heikki showed what he is made of. Kovalainen is a brilliant driver, no doubt about it. Hamilton = Rainmeister? Hahahahhah :D
http://www.riemurasia.net/jylppy/media.php?id=45925&c=5 British media is currently quiet. They've been telling that Hamilton is the best thing since sliced bread.. well there you go. They are so biased that italian press looks like a UN convention. It will be a great race tomorrow. I'm expecting Heikki to take the lead, and there will be a big crash in the first corner. RAI and HAM will be out. Kovalainen will win this, he'll probably make just one pit stop. Vettel is good, but his car doesn't have what it takes to challenge McLaren. Vettel will be a superstar when he'll have the right tools, he is an excellent driver. Go Finland! |
here's what i've heard:
so..:
|
^Yeah, good point, although I'm not sure the setup will necessarily disadvantage them to the extent that Kubica, Raikonnen and Hamilton will have an easy run up the field.

^Yes, the changes made to prepare the car for a race. The Q3 qualifiers (i.e. the top ten) plan for the race immediately after Q2, e.g. fuel strategy. The cars are then locked up for the night immediately after qualifying. Other cars are still free to fiddle about.
