Webber +0.166
Massa +0.246
Barrichello +0.331

Fuel loads are totally irrelevant until Q3, seeing as they can refuel until this point, and watching it live, I saw them refuelling.

Edit: I also saw boats with bitches on them. I want a boat with bitches on it in Monaco harbour.

Yeah but Q2 they usually are running almost no fuel, hince why you can can deduce their fuel loads in Q3 usually.

Holy shit, did Scuderia actually just get in the front row???

Holy shit, did Scuderia actually just get in the front row???

Oh yea.

Check the fuel weights:

1. Jenson Button, Brawn GP, 647.5 kg
2. Kimi Raikkonen, Ferrari, 644
3. Rubens Barrichello, Brawn GP, 648
4. Sebastian Vettel, Red Bull, 631.5
5. Felipe Massa, Ferrari, 643.5
6. Nico Rosberg, Williams, 642
7. Heikki Kovalainen, McLaren, 644
8. Mark Webber, Red Bull, 646.5
9. Fernando Alonso, Renault, 654
10. Kazuki Nakajima, Williams, 668
11. Sebastien Buemi, Toro Rosso, 670
12. Nelson Piquet, Renault, 673.1
13. Giancarlo Fisichella, Force India, 693
14. Sebastien Bourdais, Toro Rosso, 699.5
15. Adrian Sutil, Force India, 670
16. Nick Heidfeld, BMW Sauber, 680
17. Robert Kubica, BMW Sauber, 696
18. Jarno Trulli, Toyota, 688.3
19. Timo Glock, Toyota, 700.8
20. Lewis Hamilton, McLaren, 645.5

I've bolded the lightest and heaviest of the top 10, interesting to note that the rest of the grid has gone for monster fuel loads, aside from Loser pants Hamilton, who lost another 4 spots for a gearbox change.

Pick to win: Kimi using KERS off the line, and the mechanical grip of the Ferrari to > the aero of Brawn.

Wildcard: Webber. If the front guys make mistakes, he will win. he is probably the best drivier around Monaco on the circuit, aside from Sutil, who needs a faster car to prove his worth.

hated to see Vettel go out so soon, but awesome race all in all, wish someone could stop the Brawns though, hopefully it will be Massa in Turkey!!

[tg318is]

[Jean]

[YAN-3]

yup yup. glad if was Kimi too.

now on to more important topics..

WHAT THE F IS GOING ON WITH BMW???

[E-Thirty]

Lets hope the new diffuser makes a difference.

[Hick]

watched it today. suprised how much Button pulled away from Rublins in the first stint.

glad to see Ferrari back where they should be. Maybe, just MAYBE, another team will be able to beat one of the Brawns.

[tg318is]

yeah, im sick of the white wash already. I hope BMWs new aero pack gets them up the front of the grid

[YAN-3]

the new aero for BMW should be ready for the Turkish GP right?

[Hick]

dont hold your breath, BMW has a lot more work to do

[Swart_Kar]

I was hoping that McLaren Mercedes would do better. They are currently the least improved. Braun just seems unstoppable.

[TDE30]

BMW has a lot more work to do
