Righto. Liuzzi will get out first as he got out first himself. Sutil will take 2nd.
They're just stopping men like Kubica from flouting the supposed rules.

Green is go.

Mark chose the inters. Not the team. Well chosen gamble.

knowing that the top 10 in quali have to start race on same set of tyres that set their fastest time on, what if the race tomorrow starts (for argument's sake) as dry? Are the teams allowed to change from inter/full wets to dry tyres ??
Interviewer: The most exciting moment during the race weekend?
Kimi: I think it's the race start, always.
Interviewer: The most boring?
Kimi: Now.

Best thought. I don't think teams are allowed, but can't say for sure..... let's wait for some expert's view on this :wink:

Well done Webber on intermediates. Rosberg the fastest on full wets. Vettel can be happy with P3. Sutil is sensational on P4. Also Hülkenberg in front of Schumacher. The young guns outscored the old rainmaster.

They are allowed to put dry tyres if the track is dry of course. Actually it works the other side round: they're not allowed to keep their wet tyres unless race direction deems the track as wet. :wink:

Congratz to Webber! Nice lap! =D>

Oh boy...This is gonna be one messy race tomorrow...Either dry or wet...Imagine Webber on the inters and others on full-wets while the rain pours down and vice versa...Lets hope the race wont get interrupted and see a nice show from the Red and Silver boys from the back of the grid :!: :roll:

Yeah! Congratulations to Mark! What a superb lap!
Wow... I just can't believe, how bad Michael was today! Guess the man who "walked over the water" some years ago forgot how to swim :mrgreen:

He reminds me somehow of DC... An old man desperately trying to find the pace he lost!

To everyone conserned with the rainy conditions, you have to understand, this is the tropical region; in these regions it is hot and humid during day, invariably followed by heavy torrential rain late in the afternoon, and it isn't so just during this time,but for almost the whole year long.

So, to hold a race at 4 or 5 pm, ..., well, that is as if trying to force a wet race; What we got last year was even better, a disaster!!!
I don't like to say this, but I won't be surprised if something very similer happens tomorrow.

I am sure the F1 organisers and "administration" (you know who I mean) understand this scenario, but it seems they prefer to be oblivious to it. All they want is to somehow get ever-higher TRP ratings and TV viewership, let the "RACING" take care of itself. What a SHAME!!!
