But someone did send in the Helmet design tweet and they did read it out!
Although Ant said Jenson doesn't believe in superstition and stuff. Except for the fact that he uses a rabbits foot in the car.

haha thanks Monil!

Just looking at the times, Kimi looking great atm, as is Lewis, and in terms of long runs, Brawn dont look as lost as their posistions seem to suggest, so a relief.

Although didn't get clear pics of it, notice another new helmet for Rubens.

Edit: typo.

Fissi will do well to keep it off the back row in Quali.

Well, ill be suprised if Sutil is any lighter than Button.

Im with Crot on this, Button needs to make sure he's got the 1 lap pace, I reckon he was quite short fuelled. Mclaren still looking strong, but I would say Brawn looking closer to them than I thought yesterday.

RedBull down the order, but I expect that to change come qualifying!

Luizzi is supprising me, seems to be on pace pretty quicky. As for Fizzy, I hope he comes on fizz in qualiying!

Life is much ironic sometimes, Fisi changed team and it's looking good for a FI win.

Also it's quite hilarious, out of nowhere FI summoned this big update of glory justice two weeks ago and jumped from far away back couple of races before to front row now.

It's not irony, I bet Fisi rather finish 7th in a Ferrari then 2nd in a Force India, it's his dream to race for Ferrari you know.

Look that's exactly about it.

it's an irony because the car got good right now when he was at departure, he's been racing for 2 years in the team and just when they bring a competitive car he has to leave.

Nailed on McLaren win in my opinion (presumably Hamilton) - they were just playing games in the last 5 minutes and look far faster than the rest over a distance. They might not have it all their own way in qually though.

Sutil might be good for a top 6, but I can't see anything more than 5th or perhaps 4th.

The Brawns look supremely stable - well Button does - we saw very little of Rubens, but when we did, he looked good too. Button does seem to have the edge on pace though.

RBR is starting to take a massive hit for their engine woes. They were never going to go that well here anyway, but even top 10 or 12 is looking like a big task now.

Fisi, while looking far better than Badoer, is showing just how difficult a job it is to jump into that Ferrari and make it go fast. It looks like a really hard car to adapt to. Makes Badoer's woeful performances seem a bit better. Liuzzi on the other hand has just turned up and not been all that far off of his teammates pace. Seems there's a world of difference between how the cars inspire confidence, and perhaps that's why the Force India is often so easy to drive in the wet... and the Ferrari infamously difficult.

Wonder how many penalties there'll be because there was a car in the previous corner being affected... might be interesting next year if we get a full field...

True Gav, there was alot of abuse for Badoer, whilst competiting at a time when F1 is at its closest.

Most of the abuse, though came from us, and journalists, and thinking about it, what right do we have to judge another drivers performance. Its easy to sit behind a screen and say he could have done this/that/the other and though we'd like to think it we do not have a single clue about how to even get one of these things round a corner a tenth of the speed they do. Giancarlo is proving the transistion is harder than many first thought.

We all know when you get used to doing something for almost about 10months its very difficult to adapt in the few hours. In time Giancarlo will be there, but so would have Luca. The difference really being, Giancarlo will be there quicker.

For rookies, such as Jamie is totally different, he's had to come in and simply learn! Not unlearn then learn! As for Luizzi, he's stepped up well it would seem.

Red Bull is in massive trouble now. Webber's had some mechanical problems, and Vettel can't do many runs because he doesn't have enough engines. Its all falling apart for them unfortunately...

LOL at Martin's talk on the chicane kerbs. Snow on them in the winter, and more mentions of spikes/spears! :D

Thats it DC, you tell EJ to STFU!

Difference for Kimi and Fizzy, less than 5tenths, not bad IMO.

lmfao DC and EJ :D Those two together are funny. EJ on his own is a penis, but with DC theyre good entertainment.

DC: 'Well they have simulators for that kinda stuff
EJ 'I disagree. That's why you're not a team boss'
DC 'And thats why you are not a driver'
EJ: 'yeah well you've been Mclarenised'

HAHAHAH!
