Liuzzi takes an out ride.

The Red Bulls join the track eventually. Vettel faster again.

Vettel 1:26.925!!! on prime

Petrov P5 ahead of Kubica P6. Rosberg and Alonso are in trouble on the hard tyres. They need to perform on the options now.

Vettel beats Webber again in Q2! This is the new standard in all sessions.

Vettel messes his first shot up and Webber goes prov. Pole.

Schumacher goes faster than Rosberg in the first round.

Vettel has a problem and Webber gets pole. Well done Mark!! Horner says they don't know what happened with Vettel's Q3.

The Red Bulls are hard-sprung at the front. Possibly softer at the rear. The inside front wheel is lifting off the ground going through some corners. Especially noticeable toward the end of the lap. No smoke, so it aint a lock-up :)
The mechanics have also got some new high-tech clothes that improve performance. FIR-TEX is the provider. FIR being Far Infrared Rays.
Interestingly, Vettel was complaining about the tyres locking up. I may be wrong...hmmm

Also interestingly, Sam Michael stated that he was trying to copy the Red Bull exhaust system. Christian Horner then states that it's a good thing as it (the exhaust) is one of the areas where the least performance is gained on the Red Bull. Bluffing?

Apparently the McLaren is hard-sprung too. (this being relative of course)

We just get the information that Vettel had a broken right rear stabilizer.
