Wow!

OK, maybe 20:1 was right!

Lots of variables came into play, but that is when you really have to have your act together. Good for Rubens!!

Nice to see Rubens on the pole. If the race is dry, things will be exciting! I was pulling for Vettel and still am, but I suspect Rubens will be hard to catch from the back of the field.

Rubens is going to do it! from P14 Button will be luck to get a point unless there is a SC period.

IF it's dry tomorrow and Vettel is on the dry set up everyone say he is on, coupled with the fact he is heaviest on fuel, he could make a huge jump to the front, but it's going to be tough to get on podium. In 2006, Schumacher went from almost being lapped after a tire puncture to coming in 4th. Fortunately Interlagos is the kind of track where you can pass.

Look for Kimi to get to P3 with his KERS off the start.

Man, Button is tight right now...

Now that was truly funny Wayne.

Already looking forward to the season finale with both Brawn GP drivers duking it out for WDC. The senerios are endless.

Feel real sorry for ya.

Back on topic - will/should Vettel take the penalty and install a new engine? I'm guessing no, but it sure would suck if he blows one up.

Interesting strategy...
If he takes a new engine for this weekend, he takes the 10 spot grid penalty (which in reality doesn't move him back very far...unless the FIA requires him to start from the pit lane), AND he can use the same (only one race engine) at Abu Dhabi ?
Seems like a move to make, why not?
