    And get Koby in the car.

    It will be interesting to see how things go race wise. I think the only time Seb sees a car in front of him is when he's lapping them.

    The espnf1 site has a weird, inconsistent lag too. Took it forever to update the Q2 standings; I think Q3 had started by time of the update.

    No KERS on Lewis' car in his flying lap!

    Wow...1:23.5!

    Does that become the new track record, or does it only count in a race? (MS has the current record at 1:24.125.

    It will take a while for the other teams to catch Vettel. Macca is probably the only one I'd see doing it at this point, given that they were such a disaster coming into this race.

    Ya, but I thought the interviewer said Seb didn't use his. Maybe he was addressing LW and I misheard it.

    I missed Seb's first few questions. Martin Whitmarsh revealed that about Lewis' car. If Seb's wasn't working either it really is .8s which would really suck.

    I waited 5 months for this?

    Wow, this is going to be a long season.

    I would say the 16M's name is safe this year. I won't expect a 17M anytime soon.

    McLaren's current exhaust iteration was not run at all until this weekend. Conceptually a new car as well. If it's .5s I think RB should be within reach, no way that exhaust has been optimized in 10 days.

    Let's see how the race goes with these tires.

    I was just thinking the same thing.

    Vettel and RB are playing with everyone. They didn't even bother to use KERS. Total, total sandbagging going on.
