Re: Who will QUALIFY first?

Before practice sessions I had a sneaky suspicion that Hamilton might take it. After the first two sessions my opinion hasn't exactly changed. I just have no idea where Red Bull is at the moment.

Re: The Official Kimi Räikkonen thread

Having seen Trulli getting destroyed by Kovalainen despite having an upper hand the year before just because of power steering is making me uncomfortable. Man I hope i...

Re: Official Friday Practice Thread- Australia

Just came back from Albert Park. This season seems very promising. I was standing at turn 2, and from what I saw: Schumacher is right there this year, as well as both Jenson and Lewis. Alonso is pushing his Ferrari over the limit (note what how Massa ended on the gravel when he tried to get closer ...
