Bloody hell, talk about a well structured GP weekend post !

Mortal wanted a race thread, well he a certainly got one lol! See Bruno's not all bad lol.

"Trulli was slowing down like he wanted to have a picnic" LOL

nice one Bruno, and it only took you 7 edits (so far)! :P

I'm against sigpics

Kimi is just too lazy, he's ok when the car is ok but hearing about his lifestyle and not wanting to test and do PR dutys then its no wonder Ferrari are struggling when its left in the hands of Badoer and Gene and Massa.

Even the so called mighty schu doesnt seem to be able to turn things around :P




LS's Tip of the week
ESSENTIAL OILS aren't essential unless you're an engine, a gearbox or a twat

Mclaren all the way this weekend.

Kovy for pole Lewis for the win.

I have a feeing there will be Ferrari in the top 3 as I think BMW will beat them.

Ferrari looks strong so far

@LS.

Kimi has tested more than Massa this and last year so stop talking bullshit! last year Kimi tested more than any other racing driver.

yes looks like he is all over the place again...but well track is very slippery at the moment.

Ferrari 1-2 and Heikki 3rd so looks good

tbh this session is a waste of time all they are doing is getting the track cleaned.

I still think mclaren are faster as lewis is fast with errors, i think they have a small advantage.

What i am supprised about is all the stuff mclaren were working on none of it os on the car yet.

session's finished isn't it?

Yes, good to see ferrari back up there again! Looks like that shark-fin cover is working fine!

Looks like Hammy has to fight that mclaren to keep it on track

Alonso is doing awesome in getting that renault up there in 5th. Still Ferrari 1-2 woo!

indeed he is! and he's matching the ferrari's in S2. He is quite good round this track so maybe we will see a surprise from him in quali.

Just to break the Ferrari fanboy crap, is the track wet or not? My stream's res is a little low :P

Bourdais said that the grip has improved.
