I quite enjoyed quali this morning depite the Fettler getting pole and a RBR front row.

Hopefully tomorrow's race (8am start on BBC) will start dry with rain during the race.

 

Yeah really enjoyed the quali. The thing that constantly amazes me about Vettell is he gets the car out of shape, but maintains incredible momentum. Other drivers back off and lose chunks of time. Vettell seems to keep his foot in and minimize lost time. He's head and shoulders above everyone else.

Good to see Buton outqualifiying Hamilton as well!

 

Great move by Lewis taking Sutil and Vettel

Fairly chaotic race so far

 

And hope Schumacher can hold up the RBRs now

 

that was a good race.

i didnt get in from club till 4 and am bolloxed but it kept my awake.

drunkcrew out.

 

Another boring F1 race with no overtaking.

What was the second safety car for? It seems to go on for ages too; without that Button and Rosberg would have been two pit stops ahead of everyone else.

 

To tighten up the field and make things more exciting.

Good race to watch though - Button was excellent. I wanted him to do well this year, but had serious concerns about his ability to be competitive at McLaren. Seems he has learnt an awful lot about race craft/strategy from all those wilderness years.

Kubica continues to impress as well.

 

Enjoyed the race - Is Button the new Prost? Strikes me as a very Senna/Prost driver pairing in Hamilton and Button.

As Ian says years in the wilderness have done him a great service - he looks like he has 10 years experience on Hamilton.

It was nice to see Teflonso resorting to old tricks - bet Felipe baby had a word about that after. I'm also going to officially write off Ferrari for the title. Think with McClaren's development edge it will be between Button and Seb for the title.

And WTF is wrong with Shoemaker? Not seen one flash of genius from him in 4 races

 

If you saw the interview he kept talking about "negative emotions" in his German-English way. I think today more than any of the other races he was thinking "what the hell am I doing here?" You have to wonder if he'll last the season; good news for Nick Heidfeld though.

 

7 years more experience in fact. (2000 first season compared to 2007 for Hamilton).

Alonso doing his best to be a bigger berk than Hamilton - I expect the Ferrari team will not approve of driving like that.

Quite nice to see the smug grin wiped from Christian Horner's face - whilst he's comes across as a likeable bloke, he is getting a bit annoying.

Vettel and Hamilton both handed a reprimand

I hand the FIA a reprimand for inappropriate use of apostrophes
