vet, ham, but, web, alon, petrov, lol

[mexos]

So, will HRT do it? I wonder if those cars will have any Virgin branding next year. I also wonder if Nick Wirth has already had next years contract ripped up.

Must not fall asleep...

Ferrari using options in Q1

[myoozikk]

Webber on the bubble!

LMFAO!!!!

[mexos]

Ferrari 1 & 2 LOL

KERS makes a difference then. If I was Mark Webber I'd quit in a fit of rage now.

[PaulM]

Dear oh dear, what a blunder from Red Bull.

[mexos]

[myoozikk]

I hate the idea of Lewis in the red bull. Really hope it doesn't happen. Will be fun seeing Webber carve through the midfield.

[mexos]

Yeah but imagine him in RED...

[Sidewaysbob]

This is Webbers last year as a Redbull driver isn't it

[myoozikk]

The horror, the horror!

@bob yes it is.

[polygon_monkey]

Has Vettel become that good or Webber that bad?

[myoozikk]

I want to see mclaren taking the fight to red bull.

[Halkyon]

Nah, stick Kobayashi or Di Resta in Webber's Red Bull.

[Sidewaysbob]

I think Vettel is that good at the moment.

[Sidewaysbob]

Renault will be playing a high stakes game

[mexos]

I wonder if the hard tyre requires more than 1 lap to get up to temp & RB simply fucked up the amount of time to get him that second lap?

[myoozikk]

I think it's clear Vettel & Lewis are the best of the field at the moment, vettel has the better car & cooler strategy. I think toe to toe Lewis would take him. Vettel has proven he's an incredible time trialist & consistent in a clear race, but im not convinced about Vettel as a wheel to wheel racer or overtaker. That's where he needs to prove himself IMHO.

[mexos]

Rosberg was on primes?! In Q2?!

[Sidewaysbob]

the softs are a second a lap quicker. they should have sent Webber out on the softs and didn't

[mexos]

Well Vettel did it...?

[Sidewaysbob]

D'oh petrov. first gear lad

[Sidewaysbob]

Well Vettel did it...?

As has been noted, Vettel is better than Webber

[myoozikk]

Brakes locked on for Petrov?

[myoozikk]

Very odd.

[morcs]

Gutted if that takes the Renaults out of the running. (Even though they're Lotus killing c***s, they were well up there)

[mexos]

True, but Vettel also has KERS (and generally a more issue-free car it seems!)
