2012 Formula One United States Grand Prix

Good effort from Hamilton in Q3, but it still was not good enough for pole. I wonder if Fernando will be calling his old teammate tonight asking for a favor in the first turn of tomorrow's race. LOL ... just kidding.

Remember if Alonso finishes 4th or higher in the race, the WDC will still be up for grabs in the final race no matter what Vettel does in Austin and Ferrari has had a good race pace most of the season. There is still much to be decided in 2012.

Grosjean drops to 9th place for changing the gearbox. Interesting to say that Alonso will have behind him both Grosjean and Maldonado. This is gonna be Spa all over again.

I was hoping Grosjean could take out Vettel from 4th.... now I can just hope for a miracle.

What happens with Michael? Is he under inverstigation or something because he quiete clearly blocked Alonso in Q1. He even got blue flags

Hope so, because it has been a very interesting season with diferent alternating winners through all the season and watc a Red Bull win 5 races in a row to finish it is bull****.

Did I miss something here? I could have sworn that the Iceman won the last race.
I must have been dreaming.

Red Bull's Mark Webber is under investigation by the United States Grand Prix stewards for allegedly missing a weight check in qualifying.

I see what you did there. Please watch your language anyway.

 

[Hampus Andersson]

Wow Hamilton´s lap must have been insane. I don´t think he should be that close
RBR looked mighty.

 

[Steve Sachse]

Man, I really don't want to see Seb have an easy race tomorrow. Lewis was very fast, and maybe fast enough to push Vettel in the race, but I'm still a little worried about him starting on the even side of the track.

 

[Alexander Macdonald]

Have no fear Vettel fans, I'm sure at this very moment Mclaren are carefully planning out how to completely ruin Hamilton's race in every way possible

I heard they're trying to hire Massa as their consultant regarding this.

I heard they're trying to hire Massa as their consultant regarding this.

With Massa's luck, Hamilton actually would end up winning the race after taking the lead in the last corner.

In other Massa-related news:

"I think it will be the biggest difference you ever saw at a start," said Massa.
"It will be massive. This morning I did the start on the left, and I was slower than in the wet."

Since Webber is starting in P3, I suppose all hopes of the championship not ending tomorrow are resting on... Schumacher being in the lead after turn 1

Yeah sorry, 4 of the las 5 and a third coming from last... does it makes any diference?

 

[Johnny Russian]

how many cars does everyone reckon are going to get taken out at the first corner? My guess is 4 complete DNFs by the end of Turn 1 Lap 1 of the race

 

[David Garcia]

Definetly it looks like there are chances of getting a T1 mayhem. Who will be involved? Grosjean and Maldonado starts right behind Fernando...

Mark Webber ‏@AussieGrit
At a VIP dinner last night an American woman asked me"where are you from?" I said Australia, she said "wow your English is amazing"

 

[Alberto Casado]

Rumors in the Spanish press that Ferrari might change Massa's gearbox to place Alonso into the clean side of the grid.

I don't discard then RB doing the same to Webber to negate the effect!

 

[Metalfreaky]

Well, that would be very radical (are they even allowed to change a gearbox that isn't broken?). They have to look if it's better to have Fernando at the "right" side of the grid or maybe Felipe with a good start at the front as a tactical role.

Either way they have nothing to lose: the WCC is over and I fear that Seb will win this easily again and looking at Fernandos pace he won't be able to hold the door open till Brasil.
