I expect Truili is light, Glock a lap heavier. Vettel close, and both Brawns will go to around lap 18 or 19 as usual. Lewis will be light as well, lighter than the front few even.
But I don't expect any real surprises. Everyone will be looking at a 2 stopper.
Anyways, Toyota on top form this weekend. What a crazy year. It seems the performance varies wildly from track to track. It looked as though Brawn would dominate, but if they don't win this weekend, then it's all open. Any of 6 drivers for Toyota, Brawn and Red Bull could win right now.
Personally I can't wait for the race. I do love Vettel, but I'd love to see a win for Toyota, but it depends this weekend. Toyota need to make a good start and stay there, but who will take the win. We know Truili is blindly quick in quali, but Glock has the advantage in the race. It'll be close. Vettel as well is right up there, he'll be lurking right behind them. Brawn aren't in a good position. Lewis will rocket of the start tomorrow, which is quite scary for the others, he could easily be alongside Vettel into turn 1, or even the Toyota's. As will Alonso and Massa. The Brawn are dodgy of the line, so once those KERS are in front, Brawn will have a compromised race. But their pace in the race is still the best out there, so the question is what can they do.
Toyota are actually in a great position. They just need to stay ahead of the KERS cars and hope everyone else is compromised by those cars so they can streak ahead. So for that reason, I'm predicting a Toyota 1-2.
