Vettel is only just ahead of Hammy as well.

Katoom · 22 May 2011 at 14:18

Still on for Hamilton

If Hamilton doesn't spank his tyres too early trying to do silly overtake attempts, I think he's got this.

So Button on hards but so are Alonso and Webber, the main two who would be attacking him, who we assumed would be on softs.

He might just get away with this.

Indeed!

That Force India took it's time getting out the way :/

OK, this is nuts. Everyone doing two stints on hard???? Crikey.

Surely all lewis need to do is hang on for 4 more laps then go to softs. I don't understand Maybe no softs left.

They should have had a set of used softs. I don't understand either to be honest. An extra two-four laps and surely you can make softs last to the end, and be a lot faster

If the Red Bull KERS is off and then on, especially with the weather it is today, that suggests that Red Bull are still having huge cooling problems with it, and that they had to let it cool down before use again.

Steward having a fight with a giant umbrella instead of retrieving the car.

Well, i'm glad someone else is as confused as me

utajoker · 22 May 2011 at 14:22

hammy just got 1 second faster than vettel.

Setroc · 22 May 2011 at 14:22

a 26.7? what!

Phreaky · 22 May 2011 at 14:22

Hamilton brazenly ignoring speed limits on yellows

pingwing · 22 May 2011 at 14:23

Thats fast! Perez with the first decent DRS pass there... (well for a while)

Aye, we saw how good Button was on the softs catching Webber and Alonso...I think the dropoff at the end would be more than made up for by the extra speed. Plus the fact this isn't a great track for overtaking anyway.

Mike_P · 22 May 2011 at 14:23

hmm vettel's sec 3 doesnt seem to be getting better even with kers

awaybreaktoday · 22 May 2011 at 14:23
