Ha Bernie gets his revenge, no sign of Force India in the coverage today!!!

Is this because they left early yesterday? Fuck bernie if true.

 

[brotkasten]

Vettel confirmed Webber's #2 position.

 

[Leonsito]

Bit dissapointmet for Nico, made a mistake in the mid sector, lost about 2-3 tenths there.

 

[Shaneus]

No pole winner has won here in a years I think..
Hamilton has this..

Or Webber

Great quali as usual, few surprises, Aussies DOMINATING the top 10. Shit yeah.

[ANDY_098]

Great run from Vettel. Webber looked good this weekend also, but not fast enough for this qualifying.

What were the differences between the two red bulls again, slight exhaust setups?

I heard it wasn't as dramatics as last weeks differences.

Ted Kravitz said they had the same basic lay out, only minor differences between them.

 

[Lach]

I'm promoting a two place grid penalty for cars that don't make a time in Q3....

RB (Vettel only as far as I can tell) were testing with and without the tunnel downstream from the exhaust exit today.

Thats the only small difference the cars had?

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

Exciting quali in terms of it being unpredictable, but fuck the track is boring to watch, especially with them removing the windy section.

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

Yes. It was bullshit last year and it's bullshit again this year.

I'm amazed they're allowed to do that. 2 places is too kind. 5 at least. They need to stamp it out.

 

[Dilly]

Yes, then it would've been boring and irritating to watch!

 

[ANDY_098]

That was in FP1 and 2 yesterday. Haven't seen any pics from today yet.

 

[SunhiLegend]

I cannot believe RBR are back in front this early. Hopefully we get to see a lot of overtakes between the top teams tomorrow.

Oh god, that's right. It looked different in 2010. It was crap, really.

You've dribbled some dreadful shite in the time I've known you, but this here just about tops the list.

 

[nny]

On the one hand, I'm happy to see Vettel doing better; but on the other hand I certainly hope that we don't fall in last year's rut again; I'm having too much fun with all this year's uncertainty.

 

[Omiee]

I cannot believe RBR are back in front this early. Hopefully we get to see a lot of overtakes between the top teams tomorrow.

I am really happy they are. Mercedes Mclaren and RBR are really close right now. Lotus should take that last step to make it a 4 team race.

 

[Edmond Dantès]

I think everyone suspected that they would be back at the top once they had dealt with the niggling issues.

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

You were just shit at it boyo.

 

[SunhiLegend]

That's what great about this year, there isn't one team that's more dominant than the rest. Any driver from the top teams can win the race.

 

[Omiee]

Impressive qualy from ricciardo. 6th is a good spot to start the race from.

 

[Nolan.]

Lord I didn't miss him having pole positions he just never wants to shut up

Why should he shut up, he gets asked a question.

What site is the best for hi res pictures of today?

And he asnwers as if he was asked 10 question.

 

[Britprog]

Yes I think so, Bernie is such a wanker!

 

[Omiee]

Hamilton: Have your moment boy, ill have you by the first corner.

Vettel: I can finally show them my finger again.

Webber: Fuck this i need to get to that girl.






wtf she cut him short holy shit haha

 

[Deadman]

Vettel for pole, the first 3 races being revealed as an elaborate prank.

Awww yeah.

 

[Britprog]

Button always complains about balance, he needs to find another excuse.

 

[brotkasten]

And he asnwers as if he was asked 10 question.

I hate that so much about him. Ask him a question and he'll read and entire chapter from The Lord of the Rings.

 

[Omiee]

How unprofessional by her to cut him short.

 

[ANDY_098]

Rosberg said that their car was set up for the race. Expects a very good race tomorrow.

 

[Edmond Dantès]

How unprofessional by her to cut him short.

Accident I think or just nerves. Don't think she meant it.

 

[Britprog]

How unprofessional by her to cut him short.

She is shit, just like Sky. She was shit on BBC radio last year too.

 

[Sleeplessnights]

Accident I think or just nerves. Don't think she meant it.

Who dunnit?

 

[Gor@n]

Good result for RBR, Hamilton to take Vettel out first corner and Webber win? Annoying that teams sit in the pits and don't set a time, need to fix it up. Sucks for those who just miss out Q2 or Q3

 

[Edmond Dantès]

Who dunnit?

Natalie Pinkham

 

[Omiee]

Thats some bullshit, the way they were ignoring force india.

 

[moojito]

For some reason I thought the qualifying was at 1300, so tuned in at 1255 just to see the very end of q3. D'oh!

 

[navanman]

FOM giving Force India the invisible act really really stinks of petty "Bernie" politics.

 

[ANDY_098]

Thats some bullshit, the way they were ignoring force india.

It kind of backfired on them though, everyone is talking about it and Force India and FOM are trending on Twitter.

 

[Ark]

Should be a good race tomorrow. I think Red Bull has better race pace than the McLaren's, but I haven't really followed practise this weekend so I don't know.

Looking forward to the race tomorrow though, roll on 1pm

Also, Sky is still rubbish.

 

[Edmond Dantès]

This Sky banter is so awkward. Feels pretty disingenuous.

 

[SunhiLegend]

I hate when they talk about an incident and not show the footage. The BBC is so much better in that regard, too much talking amongst themselves on SKY with no footage from the Quali/Race.

 

[ANDY_098]

Kimi Raikkonen counting on race tyre gamble after missing Q3 in Bahrain
http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/99031

"We took the risk to try to save one set of tyres and didn't go out afterwards when we could easily get in [to Q3]," said Raikkonen.

"We thought it was worth it to save the tyres, so we'll see what happens."

 

[Deadman]

hehe, from people on twitter talking about fom vs force india

If I were Force India, I'd use shortcuts during the whole race

 

[Xun]

FOM giving Force India the invisible act really really stinks of petty "Bernie" politics.

Definitely.

 

[Omiee]

hehe, from people on twitter talking about fom vs force india

What's going to happen tomorrow when the cars leave the grid? Will FOM censor Force India? http://pic.twitter.com/Ctd5X7AR

black bars censoring the force india cars lol.

 

[SunhiLegend]

That really was bullshit from FOM. Incredible lap from Di Resta and we didn't even get to see it or see the team.

Its really trending on twitter. Im doing my part.
