Don't worry.. they are sandbagging... Trust me on that. They wouldn't be complaining about chicanes and wet spots on the track if they were getting outright battered by RedBull.

Drivers have already started bitching about the chicane and, ridiculously enough, the fact that turn 5 is off camber!

Rising number one of Formula 1, Juan - Juan, one wonders should Juan only win one Formula 1 one year, would Juan have won that one in round one, Juan??

Um. He was ahead in both sessions. There's no "Not really" about it.

Red Bull mighty as expected...
But Ferrari will definitely be close, and Jenson's times show Mc will also be playing the challenge given the almost certain external factors at play. The race will be exciting.

RB have the nominal pace for a 1-2, but i would bet more $ on at least 1 SC to mess things up.....

Came out fighting indeed.

I heard Lewis had said there was a turn that was the wost one he'd driven in F1, and its worse than last year!

Is that the chicane you mean?

I was half paying attention during practice but was that Sutil what went completely air-borne and busted his left front?

You'd think they have that sorted by now... but yes, i think i'd bet more on one of them failing the start than a 1-2 as well. Even more excitement to the race.

He was trying to out do Mark Webber in the F1 "X"Games... And if we see this in the actual race we might see some real overtaking

I do wonder if the "Singapore Sling" corner will be changed before qualifying tomorrow; it's clearly dangerous; what happens if one driver outbrakes himself, mounts the curbs and end up having inappropriate relations with the car in front causing a huge accident; there's isn't much room to avoid any accident in that chicane!
