British Grand Prix: Qualifying

[DivideBYZero]

1: Kovalainen
2: Webber (!)
3: Raikkonen
4: Hamilton

Great effort from Kovalainen and Webber especially. Winds appeared to be a big issue for the last quali stage.

It could be that Red Bull has gambled on a dry race tomorrow. That is unusually fast for them.

What happened to Massa? 9th? I would expect at least 4th or 5th from him.

Kubica's car was fvcked. 🙁

Domination by Lewis and a smart move by Barrichelo to go to full wets. It is odd listening to those guys make ads for baseball and the other programs on Fox. Good race, lots of sliding, lots of slipping and poor Kubica messed up.

Yes, Hamilton did an excellent job,leading from start to finish
and ending up with about a 1 minute lead over 2nd place. Very
tricky track with many cars sliding off and into the gravel traps.
But on the other hand, no real damage to any of the cars.

Next race on July 20 at Hockenheim in Germany .. carried by FOX TV

I was most impressed by Barrichello finishing 3rd in the Honda. I think that was his best finish since leaving Ferrari.

Hamilton ran a great race of course.

Webber's drive kind of fell apart on the first lap.

Apparently Massa sucks in the rain or the car was just not set up right. It must have been at least 5 spins. Down 2 laps and in last place by the end of the race.

I hate these races on FOX...very little pre-race coverage and they don't air the entire driver's interview. At least they have the Speed crew commentating. Peter Windsor needs more air time on FOX, he does a great job IMO and his talent is being wasted on that POS crap station called FOX.
