I thought I'd start one.  So, after qualifying, we have Vettel on pole (Red Bull), Button, Barrichello, Webber. Ferrari are p6 and p7, and Hamilton got knocked out in Q1. Looks like it'll be interesting tomorrow! _________________My Flickr | Snaptophobic BloggageHeather Kay: modelling details that matter.

Yeah it's been a good season so far and tomorrow’s race should be interesting to see what Red bull's double diffuser can do versus Brawns new front wing.
I'm really enjoying the BBC coverage btw.

Wow! I won't spoil it for anyone*, but poor old Rubens. He didn't have a good race at all. Hamilton seems much more relaxed with being at the back this season. It looks like he's accepted his car is not up to the mark, so he seems content to take this season as good experience after being at the top of his game since karting. *Spoilers before the evening rerun will may well be edited if you're not careful!  _________________My Flickr | Snaptophobic BloggageHeather Kay: modelling details that matter.

Yes, great race again! Can't wait for Silverstone in two weeks' time - I'll be there, cheering on Jenson.

OT, I'd like to know what your avatar says, my colour blindness is a real PITA sometimes.

I was a bit surprised by Vettel’s attitude after the race making it clear he was pissed off with the team instructing him to hold station behind Mark Webber for the last few laps.
Firstly it was his first lap error that cost him first place; the team reacted by fuelling him light for the second stage sprint. He did catch up the JB but could get past so his race for first place was effectively over. In the mean time Mark Webber was closing in on him and jumped him in the pit stops.
Vettel sounded bitter that the team didn’t switch him back to a 2 stopper so he could get back at Webber but that would have meant soft tires and heavy fuel for a lot of laps to get him to the end of the race, I didn’t think he had a cats hell chance of getting 2nd after sitting behind JB for 8 laps, plus he still had to pass Mark to get second which would have been very risky given his track record for frustrating overtaking collisions….. good call Red Bull
