obviously the left side (logic based so far i can remember)... but when there is nothing related to money i would prefer the right side.

The cars will be pretty close and will fight it out on the track, we really cant state wich one will win.
If the temperatures will be 25 degrees or above, then the brawn has a gain as it works good at higher ambient temperatures(see the first races where it was hot), red bull has a gain when it under 25 degrees. The circuit has a few nice slow turns where the brawn is better then the red bull(the brawn has good traction out of corners) but on high speed turns, wich the nurburgring got too the red bull got a gain, so it will be close.

i place my bets on brawn, but we'll see when the race s done...
I dont think thats 100& correct with the temperatures your stating about Brawn and RB. The cars evlove all the times just beacuse they wearnt good back start of the season dont mean they havnt fixed it.
But atill you ca state that the RB works better on low temperatures and the Brawn on high temperatures, brawn has problems with heating their tires on low temperatures, like shown here in silverstone.

MAssa & KImi in front of Webber is absurd
Or maybe they vote based not only on car performance but driver ability as well.
It's not like I consider Webber incapable of winning a race, but he still hasn't proved that he can.
Likewise, last year Heikki was driving the same car as the Champ but only managed one victory (after the race leader retired 3 laps before the finish), whereas Alonso for example managed 2 race wins with a car that was indisputably much inferior..

Agree. But only if Webber finishes . . .

especially since the only DNF's(3 total) for RBR this year have all been Vettel crashing or spinning off

Are there times when Webber has the advantage over Vettel? Vettel is going to be tough to beat in his home country.

Vettel has actually never been to this track in F1, and Webber got a podium last time here.

So Webber has the initial advantage then? That means Vettel will look even better when he wins :mrgreen:

Drivers can just learn the proper lines via the simulator, and then adjust on track to the subtleties.

Of course every driver does this in every race, except they just remember the lines from last year or whenever.

Visiting a track that someone else has not raced is not nearly the advantage it used to be.

It took a whole season for Varsha and Hobbes to say Kubica properly. Matchett always gets it right as he is the only one that is really on it.

Every race it was different.. it was Koo-beak-sa, Cue-bih-ka, and Koo-beat-za. All over the place.
