Great quali session. had to laugh at Christian horner over the radio to seb "Who needs ride height control?"
Race looks like it could be a wet one, so anything could happen.
Fingers crossed for Seb and Mark to have an awesome race.
Hamilton looks like he's dipped his chin in a pot of iron filings.
Awesome stuff at the end from RBR, very funny interview with Vettel in the pre qualifying build up and LOL @ Stefano Domenicali with his "Mama Mia!" comment

Lewis Hamilton on McLaren's poor showing on Q3: "We were doing so well in practice, Q1 and Q2, then the car started bottoming a lot more in Q3
So let me get this straight they have the car bottoming out on low fuel in Q3? That bodes well for the start of the race

Ohh this could work out very nicely
STR give drivers different race set-ups
Toro Rosso has revealed it opted to split its drivers’ strategies for qualifying in China, with Jaime Alguersuari’s car set up to be optimised for dry race conditions and Sebastien Buemi’s for the wet.

wtf, this is my exact morning for GP weekends, except replacing the chemex with an espresso machine and the bolivian with Blawan Java.

Er... if there is little fuel in the car and its bottoming that would suggest its trying to get as low to the tarmac as possible, surely thats a good thing?
Or have I misunderstood you?
(not that I am insinuating Mclaren are using an illegal active ride height system of any sort

No I'm saying it's a bit weird that on low tanks the car is bottoming out and they still haven't put the fuel in for the race. You would expect if the car bottomed out in Q3 without a device to raise the car they would have serious issues at the start of the race fully loaded.
Then again it was hamilton saying the car bottomed out and he's not exactly know for his technical ability.
