    I actually found this on another forum and thought it was quite interesting seeing as how Monza is the least down force intensive circuit on the calendar. Looks like they're taking a very different approach with the rear wing that most of the teams perhaps?

    great post Kyle. i hope Monza's kerbs won't hurt Massa and Kimi. if they have cured the problem like they claimed they did, i suspect we'll see a 1-2.

    I thought the general consensus was that McLaren were a bit faster in the straights? or have I just not been paying attention the last race or two?

    Edit: here's another pic that I forgot to post along with it, I'm assuming it was ripped off the formula1.com website?

    from what i understand, Ferrari have been faster on the straights by 3-5 km/h. thats provided all 19k revs are up and working.

    both Felipe and Kimi will have new engines for this weekend. so we'll see.
