Was it worth it for Hamilton to go lite on fuel just to try(and get) P1 if he has to make two stops? What's the thinking/strategy here?

In theory the two stop should be quicker on paper.But most teams seem to be going for the one stop,most think it will prevale.Time will tell

Kimi is the danger man if he can stay in touch with Hamilton. That said Brawn are looking good with their fuel loads but Alonso might get them at the start with his KERS button.

Even so, the Brawns are fuelled to go a lot longer, you'd expect them to take him in the pit stops. He could help the McLaren's and Raikkonen out though if he's lacking enough in pace.

Yeah, I wish I could crash in to the back of a rival in the pit lane. How I long for it. I'd love to lie to some stewards, too. Yep.

I guess he thinks that he's got the pace to build up big enough gaps to his rivals.

wish i could beat a double world champion in my first year of f1 in the same car, wish i could win the championship in my second

and also if your gonna crash into anyone in the pitlane make sure its your championship rival ye?

How many seconds lead do you think he'll need to make two stops and still come P1?

quite a bit I would imagine as the start finish straight is quite fast.

if hes .4 - .6 of a second a lap faster than the rest that should do it, and hopefully if sutil is behind him he should do that

Well, uh, he aimed at the wrong one.

At least 25s each time.

How much does the extra fuel slow him down?

McLaren are looking very strong with a fast car at the very front and also the fastest car on the 1 stop strategy. HK is best placed he should win tomorrow.

So many quotes of quotes of quotes, fazzling my small pea brain

Yes. Of course, he should have won here last year, but didn't. I'm skeptical, but I don't think anyone behind will pass him, and he should make it to at least third place by the start, seeing as his starts have been good. If he gets between Hamilton and everyone else, he can hold the pack up, but on strategy alone might still have a chance of winning. Personally, I'd love it if he won. Him or Barrichello or Sutil.

it will be between kovi, lewis and kimi i think

Unless the brawns can make the 1 stop work but i think they'll get pushed back by Alonso and Liuzzi and held up.

[Hanwombat]

Heikki is in a good position would love for him to win
