Currently watching the Friday practice 2 on Speed and I heard that Max Mosley wants to reintroduce movable aero parts. I just want to hear what you guys think about that.

Saw Quali.

BMW managed to light a fire under Quick Nick. What was his problem recently, too much fear of death?

Bourdais is really qualifying well! Funny Toro Rosso banter about, 'keep the driver swap the engine supplier!'

Honda, how we pity thee.

Oh... and go Lewis!

I suspect the McLarens are quite a bit lighter than Ferrari as Ferrari had more pace so P2 of Massa does not bode well for Hamilton. What I don't understand is why is Ferrari not giving Raikkonen a lighter car so that he gets a good clear start. He has not been doing well in early traffic of late. If he does manage to overtake Hekkei then we will have one hell of a race on our hands.

bourdais looked very good, i've been rooting for him all year and seeing him pull p1 during q1 was fantastic. looking forward to a great race!

Alonso also did great starting in 6th, but I wonder how light his car was. I didn't get to watch the practice.
