Circuit/tyre info:

Lets hope for some action at the front of the grid at this weekends grand prix. I am hoping the Red Bulls can compete with Merc and Ferrari at this one.

Hamilton and Vettel both taking an extra set of the harder compound tyres. Can anyone shed some light on why they would do this?

Is it just me who thinks they should just be called soft, medium and hard tyres?
Sat and watched a race with a" new F1 viewer" and they thought it was like the rock comedy with the amp that went to 11.

I know what you mean but there are more than three different compounds.

I think the session start and local times are the wrong way round in the OP (thanks for kicking it off though)

New rule - the fist person to point out a mistake has to start off the next GP thread.

All fixed now. I got the session times from F1.com but I noticed that the tv listings say the qualifying starts at 1pm.

Also it's live on Channel 4, not highlights.

So that's Tobinen doing Malaysia and you're doing Japan.

Or you could keep doing it until you got it right :P

Think Vettel would have set a faster lap than the Mercs had he not binned it.

RB and especially Ricciardo looking very fast.

Don't worry the Mercs will be fine in Q2 and Q3 when they turn the turn the engine up to 11.

[sandman77]

If Lewis, Vettel and Riciardo all improve their P1 times by the same percentage they did in Spa then the top 3 in Q3 will be-

1 VET
2 HAM
3 RIC

Wonder who Max will take out this weekend?

Hopefully Alonso.

Stupid me. I had an early lunch and made myself comfortable and am all ready to watch qualifying and now I realise it starts at 2pm.

Bloody hell, that was Vettel magic. Two great laps in Q3!

Agreed. He was in a league of his own in Q3.
