I think today is another feather in Kobayashi's cap, less than 1/10th off Massa in a Sauber

toro rosso look much improved as shown by buemi's qualifying pace-i think they will have a decent season. Also I think Petrov may surprise some people

What was Massa doing in a Sauber?

But seriously, after qualifying I can't see any dark horses stalking the established order. It's the same old faces at the top and, to some extent, the same old order all down the field.

A learned blockhead is a greater blockhead than an ignorant one.

I think Sauber will be the dark horses this season, Kobayashi impresses again qualifying in 8th, it seems he has worked on his qualifying performance and Perez doesn't look too shabby; with experience I believe he could be right up there with the Japanese driver; I think that Sauber could be best of the rest this season behind, McLaren, Ferrari, Red Bull and Mercedes, maybe even in a tussle with Mercedes as their pace isn't looking the greatest after the first qualifying session of the season!

Sutil was about to put a HELL of a lap in just before he spun.........what a shame!! I'm not a fan or anything but I was pretty interested to see how fast that lap was. Might have easily seen him in the top 10 without that spin

Not bad for a #2 driver

The answer for Dark Horse of 2011 in round 1, without any doubt, was Petrov. Yeah!

Perez was quite incredible today. Barrichello was uncharacteristically erratic but showed some signs of potential pace at one point.

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??

Bariichello was an idiot this weekend. First, that rookie mistake in Qual...and you call that a freakin overtaking manouvre? What a noob.

Breaking News:Lewis Hamilton has officially overtaken The Fonz in race wins. With 88 races less. Lol(Without a specially built blown diffuser, illegal front wing, preferential treatment)

Drove into the side of a car again, kinda what he did to Alonso in Spa, but Rosberg's Mercedes apparently isn't as tough. But seemed to have pace.

I guess Rosberg though for best of the rest.
