Button is going to be used as a blocker to Vettel I think.......

Nevermind he just pitted

[naplesE30]

looks like weber has just given up. Why cant he close on Alonso, who is being held up by Petrov?

[elsabor67]

German commentators and his own team literally are giving him the title already. When they spoke to RBR, al the team mentioned was Vettel. Looked like it was a sin to mention Webber at all.

ok, i have been quiet about this for the 2nd half of the season, but watching the quali and seeing how bad of a job Webber did, Im now ready and jumping on the team order band wagon. Had RBR picked a clear #1, they would of had this in the bag 2 races ago....


end of rant i guess. Now im just going to relax, sit back and not care who wins

....

no wait just not Alonso

[kishg]

alonso's definitely in the cat-bird seat as they say. Let hamilton and vettel fight it out and pounce when he has an opportunity. button looks eager so i think webber will have a hard time with him.

Even if Hamilton gets by Vettel and takes the win, Alonso could finish in 2nd or 3rd and still be champion. Being 3rd on the grid for Sunday puts him in a very very good position to take the title. He just needs to stay out of trouble and drive a smart race. That and a trouble-free car.

Although Hamilton is mathematically still in the equation to win the title, Vettel, Webber and Alonso would have to finish rather poorly to make him champion. I say let Lewis drive the best race he can, he won't be WDC though.

Vettel is quick, but his race-craft needs refinement (read: mistake-prone at times). Out of the top 3 qualifiers, I would say he's most likely to error in the heat of battle (see: Turkey w/ Webber & Spa w/ Button).

No penalties for any of the quali incidents.

If Felipe is REALLY a team player he'll knock out Webber at the first turn. :-)

But seriously, this looks pretty good for Alonso. If he can run cleanly, it is his WDC.

[naplesE30]

Button would be the most logical, but it would surely be investigated im sure everyone not in contention has already been warned to stay clear of these guys.

Hamilton is being questioned by stewards for the Massa incedent in Q2 could have huge implications if he is penalized.

So, who will crash into Alonso?

[Hick]

This is just getting started. What a quali, i was pulling my hair out thinking of what could have been.

As long as Hamilton does not win the WDC im cool.

[Erick]

Its looking promising for Vettel. Alonso's final lap didn't help, but its definitely going to make things exciting for everyone. Alonso will have to defend pretty well against a superior looking McLaren of Button's and Webber, who will surely be also putting it all on the line.

[naplesE30]

WOW does not look good for Weber. Espc considering he is not know for great starts. First corner will be intense with Hammy and Seb both desperatly needing the win. Alonso will be out for a Sun cruise whatching them fight each other.... Massa really needed to earn his pay and bump Weber one more spot for the scuderia. Not sure who is on the dirty side 1, or 2

[elsabor67]

Qual for race tomorrow.....Vettel, Hamilton, Alonso, Button, WEBBER(?!) Massa.

Webber was almost 3/4 of a second off of his teammate today. German reporters interviewed him and you could see that he DID NOT want to talk to no one. I really wanted to see Webber win. He really deserves it and the way RBR is treating him is totally fucked up!!

Now all Alonso needs now is P2 or P3 and its over with according to this http://www.formula1.com/news/feature.../11/11509.html

[quickervicar]

On the grid last weekend he blew off the holdup as "they were just trying to sell him some T-shirts"

If I were Button I would feel more than a bit slighted. If I were a Brazilian thug I would be targeting Bernie next year. He's worth far more.
