I can't wait for Raj to wake up tomorrow and catch up on his thread.

The 1 800 Little Miss Sunshine chat phone lines are going to be busy I think...

Good morning Raj

A done deal for Sato Lewis , he has Pete's F1 car ...........

Well, if this is a Webber sandwich between Vettel and Sato.... Vettel wouldn't have to try so hard to take his teammate out.

Hey Lewis, How would your race strategy have changed if your son was on grid during a national kart race and this individual showed up?

Just like my improvement during a trackday

Stop being logical Pete......you're going to confuse Wayno...

Lol, you'll find Aussies to be pretty thick skinned and well able to take a shot. In fact we give it to ourselves pretty easily too. We're just as proud of our pretty pisspoor attitude to the 'big things' in life as we are of our unique place in the world. (Still the best place to live. Shh, don't tell anyone. )

Damn, I wish I had shares in Webber. At the beginning of the year and through the first half of the season Nobody in here wanted to touch him. Now all of a sudden he's our best friend. I want royalties!!

What I find funny is how he's still perceived to be a bit of a plodder when he has had a number of poles and fastest laps this year. "Yes but he's in the best car" they all cry. Not too many WDC's who have been in an Edsel!! You might have the best car but you've still got to post the times.

Webber is a great example of being an Aussie. Speaks his mind. Competitive. Direct sense of humour that sometimes gets missed by other more literal nations. I'd be proud of him if he can pull it off.

Stay on his bumper and follow, no matter what.

Alonso # 2 (pun intended).
I knew he was sandbagging in session 1...or perhaps saving his engine.
Brilliant.

So lets do a sub poll as to what the fastest lap time will be and who will do it??

The Red Bulls are going to have to hump it in sectors 2 and 3 to overcome the disadvantage (due to the Renault engine being down on power) they're going to have on the long front straight and sector one.

But somehow I still see a RBR car on the front row at the end of Q3.

The cars in your attached image looks like Toro Rosso cars, not Red Bull cars.

One of them is definitely Taku

Thanks Ray.
Not surprised to see Kubica up there, but he is still .5 secs off of Lewis. Wonder where Seb would have fit in, if he didn't have issues.
Looks like a very competitive race.
Go Alonso!!!!
