    <applause> Couldn't put it better! ;)

    Also, this thing about Vettel beating Mansell's records, there are more races in a season now, it's easier to beat the records, surely.

    It appears that Mclaren did not have a power advantage at all then.

    Hamilton's Q2 run was a pole lap. C'est la vie. Could be fun tomorrow.

    I think that confirms that McLaren had the better car.

    There is some **** posted up here.

    Can you point out where they ****ed up please?

    Hamilton's two Q3 laps were pretty much identical so suggests that is the limit of the car and Button improved on his second run to post same time as Hamilton.

    Anyone who honestly beleives that Rad Bull hasn't had the fastest car this year is talking out of the arse, either becuase their own drivers/teams are failing so it avoids them becoming a topic, or just some ridicilous hatred they have for anything British.

    So when was the last time the pole lap was not the fastest lap of qualifying before when it has been completely dry conditions throughout the session?

    Anybody notice when Paul McCartney was just saying bye to the BBC guys, Eddie Jordan said 'Bye, George'? Awkward... (Also whats up with Paul's voice, he sounded like he'd taken out his dentures!)

    Well Vettels Q3 effort was only a tenth quicker than his Q2 so i think he probably still had more.

    Track temps were cooling all the time so the Q3 laps would be marginally slower anyway.

    The difference is all down to Vettel. He has it so wired up at the moment its scary.

    I was wondering what has happened to Paul McCartney too. Has he had a stroke? His eye was also funny

    So Mclaren are fastest all the way through the weekend until the last lap, McLaren have the beats car here, they just don't have the best driver, it's pretty clear who the best driver is, SV. Now you can all pour out your bile and sit here crying because Hamilton isn't as good as Vettel.

    As to PM, come on, he's 70 next year, I thought he loked pretty spry for a septagenarian, as to his voice, that's been weakening for a few years.

    Tomorrow will show whether the Mclaren or Red Bull is the quicker car here.

    But seriously there in no argument against the fact that the Red Bull has been easily the fastest car this season.

    Ahh that's a great feeling. Seeing that footage of the eye camera view and Seb looking up to the TV screens and seeing that he got P1 right at the death of Q3 and then the fist goes up in the air. What a feeling it must have been.
