Yesterday his engine had an issue with an ignition coil, today it was the oil pressure drop that caused the failure.

Didn't he have problems in FP1? He spent a long time in the garage and then when he did some laps John Watson on the radio commentary said the engine sounded like a bag of nail.
He had some issues with the ignition coil and it took them quite a long time to replace.

Hey guys I missed FP3. From the looks of it, Alonso will probably start on the fourth row if it remains dry.
That means a third WDC for Vettel. :'(
I know anything can happen in Formula One but chances of Vettel not taking it are very very slim.

And so you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further. With your mind power, your determination, your instinct, and the experience as well, you can fly very high.

I'd bet on a high 1:11 or low 1:12.
mid 1:12 is more like it, compared to last year difference.

It would be epic to see those slow ones in Q2 due to heavy rain at the end of Q1 :lol:
