i watched it
not a lot of gp fans on here though :(

the only reason verstappen was on provisional pole was that he was on a dry track and basically the rest were on a wet track. when it's a dry track, the 80 or so hp difference between the minardi's and the top boys shows through.

all credit to verstappen though :)

You're mistaken, he did not claim the pole position... he just won the right to start last at the second qualification day by having the best time of the first qualilication day.

expensive!!!!!! ;)

bit of a broad statement there

the michelins are better in most conditions, however, the margin of superiority for the michelin drys over the bridgestone's is much less then the bridgestone wet/inter superiority over michelin

p.s. i'm a schumi fan too :)

for me it's still Verstappen I hope for Minardi they get more sponsers


did you heard about barrichello he is maybe going to Sauber I hope he stays with ferrari or at least go to a better team then Sauber, Like williams or McLaren

that was an cool action of Montoya

I don't think Barrichello will go to McLaren or Williams...

However Coulthard needs to get some results or he will be out of job.

I think your right but it would be better for him

I think Alonso will go to Williams, McLaren or maybe even Ferrari

raikkonen or alonso to ferrari within 2 years...

you're kinda peering out over the front as if you're a kid...

different angle

arent the cockpits (or whatever theyre called) built round the drivers so where it might be uncomfortable for you it fits the original driver like a glove

its the seats that are fitted

the seats (and monocoques (to some extent)) are moulded to each individual driver, yeah

i would think that blood circulation would be a problem though, unless they have a suit like pilots...which i don't think they do

it's something like this

so what do you guys think the outcome will be :o

yep

it's cramped to say the least...

1. Ralf Schumacher Bmw Williams
2. Micheal Schumacher Ferrari
3. Kimi Raikkonen McLaren
4. Juan Pablo Montoya Bmw Williams
5. Fernando Alonso Renault

It's good that they changed the rules and you can really see the effects now because last year this was the race that Schumacher won the championship.

i have the same in mind :)
