    Now that qualifying is over, its time to guess the result of the German Grand Prix. I think that the McLaren's are running light on fuel to keep them at the front of potential problems on this very narrow track. Hamilton will take an early lead, but tires will start to fade allowing Massa to catch up and during a pit stop, pass Hamilton for the lead. And the winning Florida lottery numbers for tonight's $3 million are 5-23-33-47-84-91.

    Well this is all a guess anyway.

    1) Massa
    2) Kovalainen
    3) Raikkonen
    4) Hamilton
    5) Kubica
    6) Trulli
    7) Alonso
    8) Webber

    Yeah it does seem like the McLaren are light. I hope so, at least. Kimi might be able to make it to the podium, but to be honest, I don't it happening without some attrition further up the field. Maybe Alonso can get his first podium of the year.

    4)Massa
    5)Fred
    6)Kubica

    I dont think Mclaren are running too light, IMO they have improved there package, to be on a par with Ferrari, maybe a touch better.

    Some attrition? Who does he have to pass? Let's see, an inferior Renault that's probably light, an inferior Toyota that's also probably light, an inconsistent Mclaren that will probably lose pace somewhere along the race. I doubt Kimi will have any trouble getting to the podium.

    1.) Hamilton
    2.) Massa
    3.) Kimi
    4.) Kovalainen
    5.) Kubica
    6.) Alonso
    7.) Trulli
    8.) Webber

    i just hope the mclarens are as light as some of you seem to think. I really think they've closed in on ferrari and are now on equal terms, but hey here's to hoping they're not.

    Anyone think that maybe Ferrari brought Schumi out to tell the team when they're about to do something stupid?

    Unfortunately I don't think McLaren is light on fuel I think they have legitimately improved the car which isn't good news for us tomorrow. It will be interesting to see if Alonso will ever be able to keep the car at the top of the pack after qualifying it way ahead of what it should be capable of.

    It will be a tight race. I only bet four galaxies against the other Q. One wagered 12 on Hamslice.

    +1...why should I believe the McLaren's are running light when they had the best lap times the entire weekend. Massa was just barely behind Hamilton in his final grid lap.

    That said, I do believe Kimi is running heavy. His qualifying time is almost 1.5 secs slower than his fastest lap in Q2. His struggles in Q3 were probably due to him throwing around a heavy car and pressing for a fast lap.

    I like the way you put it for Massa to pass Hamilton while they are pitting. That's really funny. I think deep inside you also know that Massa cannot pass Hamilton on the track, only in the pits. WOW.
    I guess no one saw Nelson PK (not JR...as he wants it said) coming...I guess we should all watch for him now...NOT
