we have around more less 2 hours before the quali session. will it be a wet one? :)
You are on the ball my friend! Now, just don't go taking a nap and miss it!!! I suspect and hope it will be a wet qualifying especially after this session that just ended - who knows . . Spyker could get P1. Carol
wx at 13:30 shows mostly cloudy; winds E 15; pressure dropping; 78% humidity; dew point 66 (not that great of a spread with temp) Carol
Good morning everybody - For anybody trying to watch Qualifying on Sopcast, they are showing it on 6029 Star Sports. Peter
Track declared officially dry for qualifying. All are running either soft and super soft tyres. Good news via Bob Varsha - stewards are going to be really clamping down on any driver hold up another.
< 6 minutes - Lewis on top with 1:16.234 Alonso 1:16.470 Kimi 1:16.639 Massa 1:16.786 Hamilton betters his time now 1:15.685 !!!! 80% chance of rain tomorrow
Out are Albers, Sutil, Speed, Ralf, Sato and Davidson. Luizzi in fourth! Brian glad to have you awake and here ! ! !
Live timing has been occasionally locking up on me this morning - so I solve the situation with several programs minimized and basically refresh live timing every so often. (I'm also running a laptop with a wireless card.) Carol Hydraulic leak for Albers.
I almost missed out on this, if the weather was any better I was going to head down to Austin but the wiper relay is having some issues.
I'm very jealous, although 7 am (for me) start time is not bad compared to some of the other races. Mark
This one's going to be interesting. McLaren has looked consistently good, but there is no real feel for how qualifying will turn out. Look out for Hamilton this weekend...he was throwing that McLaren around the way it's supposed to be driven. I think he's determined to make his mark at Monaco.
looks like Kimi clipped one of the barriers. the right front wheel almost came off as a result. i just hope he can make it thru...
Hi Brian - hope it's sunny in CA - raining again here in TX Hamilton back in P1 with a 1:15.479 this time - MASSA IN FOURTH oop's how things change - Alonso P1, Massa in 6th. Four minutes left, wonder who will be out??? Wonder if Kimi will start from the pits? or will he start 16th?
