If the weathers going to be as changeable as today these weights might not mean much. Plus the brawns race pace should be a lot better as they should get heat in the tires over the course of a stint. Still if Webber keeps it on the track its his, just hope the maclarens jump Vettel and hold him back.... Can't believe Sutil is where he is with that much fuel to!

A couple of races ago people had written off the season as a boring and foregone conclusion. Not looking so sure now is it?

But Mad Max isn't man enough to do this
Fixed that one for you.

Indeed. Mind, those were the same folks who insisted that the current sport is in no way a pale shadow of its former self*. So maybe we can take their opinion with lorry-loads of salt....
* - current problems being a case in point. At least when we had major issues between teams and governing bodies before, it was something real rather than just egos and bitchiness. The FISA/FOCA war? Ferrari versus the FIA at the end of '64? Tyrrell getting screwed in '84 (and they were)? If we're going to have a war, let's at least make it a proper one!

indeed, he's slightly heavier than the Ferraris and in front of them.
It'll be interesting to see how he plays it at the start tomorrow

surely if the rain doesnt come tomorrow Brawn will be doing a short first stint and try to get past the RB's and then go for a long middle stint. they should be ok on the tires doing the longer runs as the car seems to be more kinder to the tires than the RB's, still thats some shocking pace from the brawns. Should be an interesting race what ever comes though

How can they get passed with less fuel and slower cars?

By doing something called overtaking, but as you work in F1 ill let you off for not knowing that.
You don't need a faster car to overtake Webber into T1, just some balls on the brakes.

Wow, todays quali was AWESOME! Very impressed with Sutil there with all that fuel.
Got that feeling the brawns are banking on rain early on into the race, other wise i think this could be webbers first win! Though rain looks the be almost a certainty (given its even raining up here in belfast and the track is a bit notorious for random weather)

Thats two 'for sures' you have ended sentences with in this thread. Is it a disease that spreads easily in f1?

Well if LH gets off to a good start I think he may go to the inside of the track
and do a senna on the first corner, by pushing the cars infront wide and then coming back into the racing line.
If not then let Kova take them off
