Well, I wonder how many finishers we will have tomorrow. It would appear that this track is really hard work. Should be interesting.

Well that was interesting. Absolutly love this circuit. And I think Valencia has a huge job on its hands next year to even come close to where they should have been. I think I might change my plans from a couple of european races to save for this one next year.

Big question is how many laps difference is there? Lewis has been scruffy all through Quali and his last laps were not that good, so I dont think the difference is that big. Maybe 2 laps most. Kimi's going heavy. I guess Lewis might want to thank the guy who made Alonso's fuel line otherwise he'd be likely looking at an 11th place start. Roll Eyes

Well, what a great track!I think though as already mentioned, this may be more about fitness rather than pure pace - the state of some of those guys after quaifying was quite shocking - more late 1980's than 2008!

And that i think may make it a great race - fatigue may cause incidents rather than the procession that maybe the track would offer if it wasnt the bump fest and constant work rate that it appears to be.

Sparks, oversteer, locked wheels, great stuff! Kimi and Lewis both had wall moments i noted - Lewis especaily close towards the end - brilliant stuff!

well madness from the stewards carrys on
http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/70945

I cant understand how they can justify Heidfelds penalty. They ground down the commitment line over night and said if your going into the pits you have to go to the left of the now reduced line. He did that, stayed left as he should. Nothing he can do about Rubens, he cant slow down would cause a crash, pulls over to the left hits the wall, to the right he's back on the racing line. Its just an unfortunate incident that all weekend drivers have warned about.
Yet Trulli gets a small fine and a reprimand for driving the wrong way down the track at a blind corner at one of the fastest points of the track. Roll Eyes

See its not just merc and lew who gets the wrath of inconsistency..

Good case of the stewards being accused of rediculous penalties, then to appear consistant go into COA mode

It looks like stupid SPEED TV is showing the race on tape-delay. Angry

I'm not really surprised. That station is dedicated only to NASCAR and their own stupid little shows.
I used to watch a tape-delay on CBC after getting home from work, but they showed the WHOLE race. When they went to commercial they stopped the tape. When they came back the race was picked up a bit before from where it left off, so it actually made it a little better IMO.
I could maybe watch on the internet, but the quality would stink.

Inconsistency, no consistency.......the FIA/Stewards now have a consistent policy for drivers who obey the rules Grin
