Still not conclusive with regard to the actual pace of the cars. What I mean by this is that there was a lot of unusual circumstances yesterday.

The first was the unseasonably cooler temps which affected tire degradation. Mayalasia will be unbearably hot. Kimi was fast and deserved the win , but the fact he did it on 2 stops appeared to be a surprise to RBR and Ferrari. Couple this with Sutil going so deep into the race with the prime tires, and count on a different strategy moving forward.

The odd thing was Kimi almost lapping Grojean who isn't slow. Perhaps they split strategy? Perhaps even lotus Renault didn't expect that kind of pace and they took a chance with Grojeans set up? Just throwing out ideas.

Ferrari looks real strong and I believe they will show even better in Malaysia

[QUOTE=Land Jet;10309564

I can't agree that Webber couldn't set his take off map. Not only has he been at Red Bull long enough to know it, but really, a take off is a take off, they are all the same. The map would be of more consequence for differing tracks, not the initial 100 yards. Fail for Webber. I'm kind of surprised has hasn't lost his seat for this recurring problem alone. It's not like Formula 1 is a 24 hour race.[/QUOTE]lol
