2013 Abu Dhabi GP - Yas Marina

[atanatizante]

Vettel will do it. Ferrari on P11 and P14. The car looks undrivable.

The rumors said that they are running some 2014 components on their car even in the race, at least for Alonso's car ...
Hey, how do think about this proposition of a mandatory 3 stop race and durable tyres for an attack race rather then a tyre management race ?

Jenson was complaining about something with the gearbox, between the first and second gear. What do you think? Will he need a new gearbox? The lap time was ok, maybe it's not something serious. [-o<

OK I got stuck on this but from live timing: "The word is drivers have been warned that they risk having their time deleted if they exceed track limits at that final corner in qualifying." Does it include lap before (example, he may be touching line here)?

Hmm that makes that corner even trickier. The apex is blind, not to mention the pit entry is part of the turn.

Crofty and davidson are literally the most annoying commentators ever. Not to mention factually incorrect 1/2 the time. They kept rambling on about how hamilton decimated everyone on the twisty final sector trough the practice sessions, but guess what, he didn't actually

Ferrari looking a bit better now - guess what? So called 'upgrades' have been removed...

Mr.No Grip complaining the grip again while his teammate goes p5.

Now that Mr. Finger and RBR have both championships in the bag I`ll ask you guys to vote which will be the best Vettel`s approach for the next 3 races:
1. He must start at the last position on the grid;
2. He must start on Webber`s car and have the 10 th place on the grid;
3. He must start at his qualy original place but he must race with just one eye sight;
4. Same as above but he must race with a hand tied;
5. Same as above but he must lap everyone but Mark.
Fill free to add new situations in this above list ...

6. Both Vettel and Webber start on the last row of the grid, with the car being assigned by random draw.

Right FIA.....lots of leaving track limits, lets see if they make good on their threat to delete lap times (i'm going to go ahead and say they'll just leave it)

If they don't just ignore it, Vettel is on pole by 6 tenths and Hamilton & Rosberg have no lap. So yes, they'll leave it.

"Everybody f***s up qualifying except for Red Bull." (probably true for most of the races)

Would make the race (from second below) much more interesting!
