I don't know about fuel loads, I really think Ferrari will have gone light with FM, they needed pole in reality and would have liked to shut the McLaren's out I'm sure. Can see KR running slightly heavier than LH/FM to try to take advantage of track position. FM is going to be on the wrong side of the track as well but I'd rather see these two on the front row more than anything else really.

The Toro Rosso's looked very very heavy.

Hopefully no collision in/around the first corner tomorrow and some clean racing (I know its allowed but still prefer when someone isnt forced wide coming out of the corner)

If its as cool tomorrow I think Hamilton has it in the bag, but would be great if there is some rain to shake it up a bit
 
Frappin' ITV!

They go for the best part of two seasons praising Hamilton on occasions where it simply wasn't warranted. He turns in an utterly awesome lap today, and what do those two tossers back at ITV base camp say? "Well, he's probably running lighter".

Gah!

Roll on 2009....




Rant over, back on-topic:

I don't think Hamilton is that much lighter than Massa. The body language in the press conference said it all - Massa looked beaten. He needs to be ahead of Hamilton before the apex of La Source. If he's not....Hamilton has won, barring any mechanical whoopsies or brainfade moments.

And it really was a damned good lap by him today in Q3. I want this noted by all you rabid pro-Messiah™ hooting ***** - I'm giving credit where it is due. Savvy? If he's running terribly light, I reserve the right to expunge this one from the record of course....:)
