i really thought kimi would be heavier than button.

and it amazes me how massa was lighter than kimi yet worse although seemed t have the uppoer hand all weekend until qualy,
that accident at the very start of Q1 must of dented his confidence.

I was dreading Nico would be light on fuel considering he was commited to going for pole, but it is Vettel who is light. If Nico can get the jump on Massa tomorrow I think 4th might be within reach.

Vettel 3 stopping perhaps. :confused: Doubt, and thus that's one hell of an aggressive strategy. It'l be made even worse if Massa gets a good start alongside him.

In my opinion. Everything looks perfectly normal, with only one thing outstanding. Kimi. It's not that he just thrashed his team-mate, he basically thrashed everyone in Q3. Everyone behind seem's to have done a similar job, seeing as they're all lined up lightest to heaviest, with the exception of Nico.

Also, Brawn are favouring Button, no question. Barrichello was clearly the faster of the two drivers, but he's stuck with the slower strategy again. In my opinion, should Brawn look at Barrichello and think, he's been faster, he's our best bet for pole. Fuel him a lap lighter. But they don't, Button has had the optimum strategy 5 out of 5 races. I'd like that explained from Ross.

I think the thing is this year, and the reason Brawn are so dominate. The Brawn car is better with fuel on-board. So the Q3 rules are benefiting Brawn so much. If the car's all ran on fumes in Q3 things would look a lot different. Whilst on the other hand, I think the Williams struggles with loads of fuel on-board. I can't wait till the cars can run low fuel in Q3. I means there's no crap about who was actually fastest. The man with No. 1 was fastest end of. No crap about one team-mate being given a better strategy. We'll also see some cars better in quali and some better in the race. So we'll see some actual racing with the cars with better race pace coming through the field. :thumbup:
