PMSL at "tiger tokens"!!!

I like the first two sessions of the new qualifying format...maybe they're worried about A1

Thought Massa was superb pushing Schuey all the way and Button did a good job

Missed qualifying as I was still asleep

Excited to see what the new cars are like especially as they're all running 2.4ltr v8's. How they get that amount of horsepower out of these engines never ceases to amaze me

Edited, cheers spacehopper

Say what you want Schumacher can drive!

Those F1 cars are mental, this time round they are down 200bhp, V8's instead of v10's and 2.4litres......still doing unbelievable speeds!!!!

I would imagine cutting engine size has nothing to do with cutting costs. As far as I can tell it's so each team has to develop a completely new engine therefore making it alot more even at the start of the season.

No doubt they will be back near the figures they were at before soon they were saying the cosworth engine revs to over 20,000rpm imagine a road car doing that the sound would be immense

after 1st session Slowest 6 cars are knocked out (they start Last 6 on the grip)

2nd session the Slowest 6 are knocked out ( they start just in front
of the 6 knocked out in 1st round)

3rd session is all the rest of them doing normal qualifying!

each session is 15 mins long.

(thats far as i can make out anyway)

Nice to see Schuey back in the running. I laugh at those who dont want him in. What sore losers However it is boring to see him win over and over. I like the Hakinnen days when it was either of them boys for the win

10 pounds says the Red cars come in for fuel after 12 laps, i think they are running low fuel, Alonso win i for see.

Jenson will be in the top 3 if he does not have any problems . I dont see MS winning
