    Lewis showing even the best can struggle to do a normal lap round the easiest circuit on the calender.

    I just heard that Button has a 25-place grid penalty; how is this even possible? It just seems symptomatic, symbolic even, of how this sport has got twisted out of all proportion.

    Still, on the upside, it's looking more and more as if we may actually have a race to watch tomorrow; fingers crossed...

    Alonso and Button seem to be racing to see who can get the biggest grid penalty.

    Hoping for a Vettel pole (didn't think I'd ever say that)

    Very strange, both Mercs spin on last lap!!!!! I wonder if Merc have a 'spin button' on the pit wall? Lewis lost it so hit the Nico spin button :)

    Clearly Mercedes have an electric shock they can use in Nico's seat to put him off if Hamilton needs saving.

    Is that right Hammy-haters?

    Was gutted to have missed qualifying.

    Oh no wait, I wasn't.

    Same old crock of absolute balls.


    The only thing to watch out for is a Merc mistake because there is no possibility of any other result without that, which doesn't seem right for competitive sport!

    Doesn't that kinda make the point- still fastest despite them?

    Just a bit disillusioned with it all. Same circus, different track.

    Shows how hard they have had to push to stay ahead though. They are at least on the edge.

    Nice job Lewis on equaling Vettel regards pole. Next to pass him on GPwins all this without being in a dominant car as long as VON Vettel.

    Agree 100%. Mercedes hasn't had any proper competition since the regulation change. Waste of money and talent for the other teams.

    Has anyone seen any explanation for Kimi's last Q1 lap, or did he just mess up?

    Good day from Hulk, Verstappen and Nasr.
