2012 European Grand Prix

[dhandeh]

With the same driver running away with it as last year.

I hope not!

 

[PAWEL17]

Angry Birds knocks Webber out.
What happened to Webber? Going slower than a Caterham.

 

[Pagey279]

Blimey, now that is surprising. Webber not even getting into the top 17 and being out qualified by Kovaleinen in the caterham!

 

[Alex p.]

Webber out in Q1, nice.

Edit: Double treed'd.

 

[Lizard]

Oh dear Mark.



Congratulations to both Caterhams as they look quite good here.

I think he encountered traffic on all of his laps and gave up his last lap because he was 2 seconds off 17th by the first sector.

 

[dhandeh]

Hopefully Webber will have his problems sorted for tomorrow and can have a good battle up the field. He won't want to be behind Kovalainen for too long!

 

[hornet_burnout]

First Button, now Webber? This is more than just tires. And despite being bad for them, this is a good sign for the sport. No one has anything for granted these days. I love it!

 

[SilverArrow]

Traffic was never an issue, he had no DRS.

Am I correct in saying that Rosberg currently holds the Lap Record now? (1:38.504)

 

[Pagey279]

Timo glock holds it at 1.38.683, but I thought lap records could only be set in the race? I'm probably wrong though

No idea. If so, Grosjean just took it anyway. Albeit, it probably can only be set in the race.

 

[PAWEL17]

0.2 of a second within the top 10 drivers, 0.9 with the top 17. This is ridiculous.

 

[Anghammarad]

13 first cars within 3/10 in Q2.

 

[TheBook]

Both Ferarris out in Q2. GRO with the fastest time, but it'll be interesting to see if he can pull it off again when it counts.

 

[dhandeh]

Ferrari looking off the pace here, maybe too hot for the tyres to work properly.

 

[Anghammarad]

Ferrari looking off the pace here, maybe too hot for the tyres to work properly.

Yeah, Alonso was a full .218 from best in Q2.

 

[Peter.]

Senna, Schumacher, not again! Both Ferraris knocked out as well.

 

[PAWEL17]

If only Kubica never had that crash *sigh*

 

[TheEnd35000vr]

Seems the Lotus cars like the warmer tracks. I'd put my money on Grosjean/Raikkonen getting pole now

 

[hornet_burnout]

So where are the "expert" journalists (and other) that keep trying to predict the unpredictable and said Shumi was going for pole and race win?

 

[Alex p.]

If only Kubica never had that crash *sigh*

*I know that feel bro*

 

[dhandeh]

Yeah, Alonso was a full .218 from best in Q2.

Still off the pace, compared to the rest of them.

 

[Pagey279]

Damn you vettel

 

[dhandeh]

A mighty lap there from The Finger.

 

[PAWEL17]

Another great job by Maldonado.

 

[Peter.]

Well that settles it. Tomorrow is going to be the worst race since Valencia last year. Unless Lewis can stop him.

 

[PAWEL17]

Well that settles it. Tomorrow is going to be the worst race since Valencia last year. Unless Lewis can stop him.

I have the same feeling. He'll get a 2 second gap on the first lap, so no one can get within DRS. And that'll be game over. Hopefully not.

 

[gorsad]

Maldonado behind Vettel and Hamilton

Hope Hamilton does good tomorrow, but the Red Bulls and the Lotuses seem to be better in warm conditions.

 

[Peasantslayer]

Where did Vettel find half a second at the end of sector 2? He was so steady on the throttle in the final corner because he knew he was so far ahead, crafty *%^&.
