Vettel struggling with the softer tyre? Weird? McLaren domination once again! Webber Vs Vettel = 2-0, Lets go Webber!
Edit: Kimi and Webber doing almost the exact same time

Vettel doesn't look happy
Very interesting that Schumacher suddenly seems to be kicking Rosberg's ass now that the car is good...
Also, Vettel will have a lot of potential in the race starting on the primes, very curious how that decisions turns out for him. Unless it rains of course

Now that was close, im glad Button got 2nd again .... front row lock out, oh yeah!
FP3 was dull so no screenshots to get, i missed the maldonado going of in Q1.

Pole Last year: 1:34.870
Yep but the wind didn't blow that hard this year
Damn, that was close session... 1st 1:36.1 - 6th 1:36.6 .... The race is gonna be epic! Too bad Kimi couldn't get anything out of that time, lost to Webber just because Webber did his a few moments earlier... So in hindsight, it would've been better to just do a sunday drive with harder tires..
Kimi sounded confident, with a perfect lap a pole.. Don't know since Hamilton had some more pace too.. Grosjean is very likeable person, that wide smile reminds me of Button

I am out a lot, then i work 200 hours a month most of the time.
And still i love F1 like nothing else in this world.
Thought it would be between Schumi and Hamilton but Button was out late and put in a banker
T1 will be very interesting tomorrow

Very nice to see Webber smiling, i'll bet beating his team mate has something to do with his good mood from P4 result... I started to hate him last season, he was so grumby and complainy.. This is a different guy alltogether, i'll be rooting for him a bit more... But mostly, i'm looking for Kimi doing nice passes with a decent DRS zone on this track. He'll be flying past Alonso in the 1st lap, i'm sure..
We must remember that Vettel was the only one on the Hard tyres.
It will be interesting to see what Schumi does in the start as the Merc's often take off like greased lightening. Can he win it? Probably not, but if he gets ahead it could shake things up with the people behind before his tires sort him out.
We must also remember that he failed to go quicker with the softer compoundWe must remember that Vettel was the only one on the Hard tyres.
Webber is a total of 1 second ahead so far in terms of Qualifying pace.
I strongly remember someone saying that nobody is better over a lap then Vettel. I said it was because the car did everything he asked of it but that did not go so well
And i made a theory that Vettel gained the most out of EBD which when it was banned in Silverstone, Webber was quickest over a lap. And now this year, Webber is quicker over a lap for now at least.
I saw the replay of BBC highlights from Melbourne and at one point Coulthard pointed out that regulation changes can make a car suit one person's driving style of another. Perhaps that has happened with both Webber and Schumacher.
And Lotus too.
Yes. Tires also play a big part, some cope with it better then others.
Schumacher had problems in the slow corners extracting everything out of the Bridgestone´s in his first (new) year for example.
Lotus i would say is just a very good package. It was last year as well but development rate was crap.
And they made a mistake with the front-exhaust.
