McLaren reaping what they sow? I don't want to sound unsporting but it is poetic justice that McLaren are slow. Quite satisfying that Red Bull are in fornt.

Paul di Resta in 6th -1st win tomorrow. You heard it here first.

McLaren strike again for Lewis. Another balls up, so now he starts 10th.

Shocking really, but I am happy Webber got the better of Seb.

Webber on pole. It's on.

Shame Rosberg abandoned his lap, but it was probably for the best. Absolutely fantastic work from di Resta, Maldonado and Kobayashi to place so well. Maldonado, as much as I've criticised him, has been very impressive all throughout qualifying and definitely had the measure of his more experienced team-mate around this circuit so far. Disappointing that Hamilton is only tenth, but I'm sure that will guarantee fireworks at the start tomorrow.

Game over.... lets come back next season.

McLaren should just go and start work on next years car mind you with the amount of rule changes is there any point.

Webber has a fantastic 3rd sector. That's what Vettel has to focus on. ALonso started pretty well this season, Massa too. Mclaren's... they just looked weak. Hamilton had to fight with his car, it was a bloody rally out there. Fantastic result from DiResta, Maldonado and Kobayashi. Rosberg could do well tomorrow. We'll see. I expect a fantastic race.

Not a tight ship a McLaren currently. I'm glad to have Webber and Ferrari at least bring some competition to Vettelmaina. The Tifosi's 2011 season begins at Silverstone, so a big congratulations to Ferrari.

But WTF was that thing on Alonso's chin?

"I don't want to be part of a forum where everyone has differing opinions." Boom...

Obviously a result of Whitmarsh's favouritism.

Of course I read before I typed! Comments saying that a team should give up before even half of the season is past annoy the crap out of me. The season is long and none of us know what will heppen. Strange things have happened in the past and strange things will happen again.

What do you mean that Button was ahead of the Red Bulls anyway? Watching Hamiltons on-board footage he just didn't seem to hook up the lap. Possible lack of confidence in the car according to David Coulthard on BBC1. Simple as that, but the car is not a million miles away. I find it quite funny as it seems McLaren were one of the teams who were keen on the rule changes for this weekend, bet he's wishing he had kept quiet.

Still a red Bull 1-2 is a good result for me at least.
