Bernie Ecclestone's face when Martin Brundle barged infront of him, priceless.

Really good build up by sky. Hats off to Brundle and webber for that show. Teams must trust Brundle's ability on the wheel.

the guy on the bbc is very good

utajoker · 30 Jun 2013 at 12:56

147mph average speed over the quali lap!

MagicBoy · 30 Jun 2013 at 12:57

That's pretty quick. The old record for the 80s circuit was 160mph from Rosberg in '85 IIRC. :eek:

The numbers are worthless, simple as that, different cars, different tyre wear, different positions in races. One car can do a one stop at the pace they are guessing at, another will have to go a second a lap slower through the whole race to make tyres last long enough to do a 1 stop.

I'd be very surprised if Mclaren couldn't get in the points, Merc get a 1-2, Red Bull struggle beyond the first pit stop, maybe two. Merc have managed to stay 2-3 last race, and Rosberg upfront till after the first stop, everyone is protecting tyres in the first stint, with less fuel on the Red Bull/Ferrari/Lotus tend to show their pace and superior tyre usage. Will hopefully see Lewis Rosberg 1-2 into the first corner, then Lewis build up a small gap, once those guys pass Rosberg more than 30-40% into the race they'll start gaining on Hamilton hand over fist and likely pass without too much trouble like Alonso last race.
