The Formula 1 Thread - 2012
Does anyone think that ride height had any bearing on the results in Q2 and Q3 today ?
I only mention it as Hamilton was around 0.8 quicker than the rest in Q2, but was then about a second adrift in Q3.
From memory the inters raise the car by 3mm or so and the full wets add another couple of millimetres to that.
Maybe McLaren are more set up for an out and out wet race whereas the Ferraris are going somewhere between wet and dry.

the thought of driving through all the crap to get to the circuit, parking in a 'muddy field' of a car park, watching the F1 cars pass for a few seconds each lap, often cold, exposed to the elements and with the view obstructed by hats umbrella's and large people and then having to queue for hours before the hours of driving home on a Sunday evening is not my idea of fun either ... with the exception of Monaco I think watching F1 is best done from the armchair in HD and ultimately on SKY (they have the better commentators and coverage IMO), then again that could be my age showing too
I've not been to Monza but Spa does take some beating. Fantastic place for the circuit.
just dont camp next to the Germans if you want to sleep
they party 24 hours a day.
I have been down t Spa Francorchamps a number of times for the GP and have always go wet, but always had great time. It is a tremendous place to watch racing cars.
I think Monza would also be a fantatic place to visit, especially if Ferrari are on song and in with a chance of a win - my understanding is II have never been myself) that the atmosphere created by the tifosi add greatly to the occasion.
