Sorry, can't see it. What is there?
For andrew and vlad's delight.
If you find one of Hamilton's, do post it...to come within 0.1s of a dominant car should be one hell of a lap to watch.
Seb still has a significant performance advantage over Mark in quali though, which, when coupled with the latter's customary mediocre starts, is VERY noticeable.

There is no way Webber will match Vettel tomorrow; maybe later in the race he can close up, unless he gets into some run-ins. Vettel is in a different league in that car, i think only guys in another car could get a track-condition swing in their favour to challenge him.
The Ferraris could hope for better since they can do some damage on the straights and uphill climb. On the turns, it is toast.

The Ferrari always seems to come on strong in the race. Mark Webber to fall backwards?

Yeah, Vettel's nicked the back of his chair.
Just a quick side note about the attendance for qualifying.
82,710 fans turned up at the Circuit of Americas today. Hopefully, there'll be even more tomorrow! The grandstands and bankings looked pretty vibrant on the TV
Fernando Alonso has a feeling he will score more points than Sebastian Vettel at the United States Grand Prix despite starting eight places behind the Red Bull driver on Sunday's grid.
Alonso was ninth fastest in qualifying but will gain a starting position on Sunday thanks to a five-place grid drop for Romain Grosjean. However, at the last grand prix Alonso came back through the field from sixth on the grid (after being seventh fastest in qualifying) to finish second in the race.
"We [Ferrari] were seventh and ninth in Abu Dhabi and the car is more or less the same and we are seventh and ninth in Austin - it's not surprising for us, to be honest," he said. "We said yesterday that Red Bull will be one and two and we will be seventh and eighth and people will be thinking it's all over. Then on Sunday we will show that we can score more points than Vettel - I don't know how exactly, but I have this feeling inside."
