Four times Mercedes power on P1-P4. Button indeed the fastest and smoothest driver which is a bit of a surprise. Schumacher beats Rosberg and Hamilton. Would be nice to see this grid on Saturday. :wink:

Button almost collected a Ferrari mechanic which looked scary. Liuzzi obviously trying very hard to shine.

I'm sitting on the grass at turn 7. Got about 150 photos and a few vids including the classic gp cars driving in anger

I also have many pics for the pitbabes thread :)

Can we have best sector timings (not speedtraps) for each driver? I was told Hamilton had the purple S1, S2 and S3, but not on the same lap...

A perfect example of what I think we should stop. I think they should have to stay on the course and the kerbs should be definers of that course and that they should be built in such a way as to make it very undesirable to do this

Get rid of the kerbs and have gravel traps. And I don't mean these flat compacted gravel traps, I want to see the ones with the huge furrows. That'll test the drivers skill at keeping the car on the road.

It looks like Vettel will be faster than Webber here.
