2013 Formula One Spanish Grand Prix

Didn't they have to only race with 6 cars at Indy 2005 because the tyres would de-laminate on the banking?

It's 2012, we've had 4 de-laminations and 2 blow outs.

So, is it somehow not a safety issue now? Even though this very thing killed F1 in America for 5 ears?

Can someone please confirm if Massa was running the older version of the Ferrari in the final practice season?

 

[Hampus Andersson]

Old bargeboards at least, hard to judge if he´s running longer sidepods or not.

Did anyone see BBC's interview with Bernie? Incredibly awkward and cringeworthy..

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Indeed, weirdest interview I've seen with him.

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Whoohoo Van der Garde impressed!

 

[Esteban Rosas]

Go hamilton!!!!

 

[Shane Butler]

Bloody hell, what a lap by Hamilton!

 

[ufunacaoenn]

Alonso vs Massa = 0.001 difference!
Rosberg was really impressive today but I suspect he and Lewis are running on different strategies.

 

[Kartik Sri Harsha]

My Immediate reaction after Q is Will Merc tires hold up for distance this time??

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Congrats to Rosberg, who is now really showing he has equal speed as Lewis. Great lap

 

[Kartik Sri Harsha]

Pole time : 1:20.718
Theoretical Pole Time : 1:20.474
Impressive lap by Rosberg

 

[Hampus Andersson]

Mercedes front row lockout, absolutely brilliant

Bonkers lap by Rosberg. His stock is being raised everyday thanks to Hamilton has his yard stick.
Hopefully they can keep this into T1 tomorrow.

I think it´s pretty clear also that they are the strongest driver line up by far.
Had the car been good in the tire management department they would have probably dominated up to now.

+3 places for Massa and Gutierrez. I think the Gutierrez Situation is very clear, but can't judge about Massa because I didn't see it.

In S3 the 120 degree turn Felipe blocked Webber for racing line. Which is the reason why he got a penalty.

Rosberg is a disapointment...in races! Schumacher proved it many times last year and the year before at 43yrs old! Superb one lap speed, but in race conditions not good enough...kills the tires ,defends too hard,lacks something...needs to figure it out,or Hamilton will punish him easily over and over again.

^^ This was said by a certain someone after the Bahrain GP. And I hope that tomorrow we will see Rosberg prove him wrong.

 

[Jordi Casademunt]

Hum, even if this is about Formula 1...


CECOTTO!

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

I think Rosberg will win from start to finish today. Hope so for Mercedes that they can finally bridge the (race) gap.

 

[TheHemps]

If this race was 20 years ago (actually as close as only 4 years ago) we'd get to watch Rosberg defend for his life for 66 Laps. Which would be fantastic watching a field of 4 or 5 cars chasing the leader.

However, it's 2013, and they're all gonna push that little button that lets them pass.

What skill. How exciting.

And the crowd goes wild! Go Alonso!
