True but we've rarely seen tyre saving work out for the top teams. Lewis has had a similar advantage on the options before but didn't get an advantage from them. Could all be cancelled out if Vettel ends up having to run a short stint to either try and get the undercut or because the tyres are going off.Traction wrote:RBR will have 3 perfect sets of primes available for the race.....

As an aside Massa has out qualified Alonso again.

2 races I'd go for. But don't you dare say the McLaren was faster in Singapore. Button was getting sh*tcanned at 1s/lap in the race. And I say that despite my avatar.Traction wrote:Mclaren has been fastest for two races in a row...If not longer.n smikle wrote:yabbadabbadoooo!!! pole in the second fastest car!!
