[The Second Coming]

useful for McLaren, cause they really have it easy tomorrow now. Massa won't challenge them and by the time anyone else gets into a position where they can chase the McLaren's, they'll be long gone.

I don't trust Massa being on the clean side while Jenson is on the dirty line. Knowing Massa's propensity for running out of talent when he gets wheel-to-wheel with other drivers, Jenson has a real problem at turn one.

I'm just saying...

Nando is a tall poppy and I'm sure he can handle that aspect.

He looks rather short though

Well done Filippi!!!
1 year away from GP2 and a win in his first race!!!

Depends if he's standing next to Lewis or Jenson.

I think you've got your realities mixed up. Massa spins on his own, Lewis is the crash magnet.

Anyway......... Time to get phylosophical with this Q lol
I couldnt watch cause it was too early so i dont have much idea how the thing looks like for tomorrow. Hopefully mclaren fall short and felipe grabs the 25? Sounds like a good plan.

You are somewhat correct. Lewis is a crash magnet. Like magnets, he attracts crashers...like Massa and Maldonado. Massa hasn't had any crashes this year due to racing at the back of the grid but we all know he's good for it. He feels he has something to prove but not much of anything to back it up.

Dude, remember last year?

Correction... Massa, Maldonado, Webber, Kimi, Grosjean........ and the list goes on.

And racing at the back of the grid IS where you crash the most.

And Massa HAS crashed this yr.

Son... are you sure you have been watching F1??

How can we forget?

Got to be true about the magnet part.

For tomorrow I am hoping for a good performance of Massa again.To see him on podium,it's been so long.I don't really think the desicion of Ferrari will change about Massa(showing him the way to other teams) without a miracle but at least we can still see how he is.

I suppose I was focused on crashes that mattered...as in with the big hitters but I suppose any crash is a crash if you're looking at pure occurrences. (Honestly, I can't even remember now who he had a smashup with this year.) On a whole, Massa has been faster than the HRTs, Torro Rossos, Marussias and a Williams but otherwise in the back portion of the field. He's far less aggressive with slower cars/drivers. And yes, I could have added Grosjean and others but it seemed obvious. Boil it all down as we return back on point, odds are heavily in his favor that he's going to create a problem for someone tomorrow (probably Button). He hasn't started anywhere near the front amongst the big hitters in what seems like an eternity and with the pressure from on-high that he must produce to keep his seat, he's apt to shred some carbon fibre tomorrow. It will be a complete shock if he doesn't (and I'll lose 20quid to a mate).

I think the big question for the race is how much of a recovery Fernando can make, and whether or not he can beat Vettel. And if he can, he should increase his lead in the championship. The Ferrari was a match for the McLaren today, in dry conditions too. Fernando was unlucky in that he had a mechanical issue which kept him from challenging for pole. But if this speed isn't a one-off, it bodes well as far as the championship is concerned.

[vlad]

I don't think he can beat Vettel, but he will probably end just behind him.

In other words, he's putting pressure. Win to keep this job...in other words go for it in the first corner and crash at least 1 of the McLarens out. Well played Monty.

Indeed! And well said!
