    LOL! Stroll gets his azz kicked again by Massa.

    How embarrassing. Kubica will be replacing the wrong guy.

    Hey it's time for the free McLaren advertisment from NBC again. What is it with NBC in this love fest with this team?

    Stroll was on the radio saying to his engineer that he had lost the electrical deployment - Not much he could do without the electric motor helping to be fair to him.

    He's also almost certain to get a grid penalty for causing Grossjean to go off the track though!

    NBC is perpetually "amazed" at how great Alonso and McLaren are. The azz kissing never stops.

    Amazing lap by Vettel...not that it should be a surprise...he's specialised in that last lap thing for years.

    Great recovery from Seb to get 2nd on the grid, hopefully he can put some pressure on Hamilton tomorrow.

    I was amazed at that. When both Ferrari's where .75 off I was sure 2nd row was best.
