Bloody hell! This qualifying will be amazing! I have no idea whos quick and whos not! Except Rubens, he seems awfuly slow this weekend compared to an on-it Jenson 
! What a time to have Alonso rumours!
"Trulli was slowing down like he wanted to have a picnic" LOL

Really liking this new circuit I have to say, very impressed with pretty much everything so far. I'd say it's already in my top....6 or 8 great F1 circuits.

Agreed, when some of the slower teams are at the top, you know that you can write them off. Here, I'm not so sure. For all I know it could be a Toro Rosso 1-2 in qualifying
Also agree about this track being one of the better ones, I really am impressed with it. I just hope that it'll continue this into the race tomorrow, and prove itself then. And about the scenery - of course I watch for racing, but if things look good aswell, then it improves the overall experience even further.

The last sector of this track, after the hairpin is FANTASTIC 
Nice lap from Trulli, Raikkonen needs to erm...do something...not sure what.
RIP to the bird anyway.

Hope Vettel can suprise us in Q3 too!
Renault not doing well, especially Alonso.

Yes! Yes! Bourdais, my fav driver, goes Q3. Finally! I can't be neutral, LOL. Sorry, Gav

Hope Kimi secures pole (yeah right..) then Vettel, Trulli, and everyone else with Massa and Hamilton penalised down in 19th + 20th.

Unless reversed grid happens, you'll watch Massa and Hamilton from the first row

Wondered what Kubica said to Massa, he smiled but nodded his head too, seemed something had irritated him during the qually?

Disapointment from Honda really. JB sounded gutted and so he should have!
I then hoped Alonso would do something special but nope
But then I was still left amazed by what has to be one of the best quali sessions of the year. Its awesome watching the cars come through the final corner one by one improving or not :p
Massa did a stunning job and deserves his pole, once again Kimi outclassed and really lacking Massa has had the upper hand for too long now. I think if a Ferrari driver will challenge for the WDC it has to be Massa now. For the last few races he looks to have had that extra pace when its needed.
Vettel did a good job, the Ferrari engine clearly has alot more torque than that Renault, I guess thats key here at Valencia as one corner leads into the next. Its amazing, one team with an engine thats completley frozen, then another team with the same car which is still behind in development but with an engine which people would say is bordering illegal for engine development ( not my opinion but many others ). I hoped for for Bourdais, I want him in F1 next year with slicks and I was hoping he could really take the fight to Vettel to give him an extra boost for a seat next year.
