The F1 Thread 2011 Season

Vettel takes pole with a fantastic lap, that was a frigging epic final session, 4 of them in the mix, brilliant!
 
Yea I thought Hamilton had done it, great driving from both of them it has to be said
 
Hamilton must be properly fecked off, just as he thought he had it.

Initially yes, but once he realises this time last race he was best part of 8 tenths off in Quali I really don't think so. According to BBC McLaren has a tad more wing on which is nice if it rains but none the less that first corner is gonna be mighty. Great quali session.
 
The extra downforce will definitely help if it does rain, either way it should be a good race, they're so evenly matched.
 
Hm, fair enough, don't underestimate Vettel in the wet though, his first race win was at Monza for TR and was fantastic wet drive.
 
Weather forecasts in Malaysia will be rain throughout the day. Such a shame that the whole of Kuala Lumpur was wet except in Sepang.
 
That quali gap is going down son.

We'll see, this was always going to be a McLaren track with the huge straights

I fancy McLaren for the win mind, they do seem easier on the tyres, wouldn't rule out Button from 4th for that very reason

The straights should be a McLaren advantage but from the speed traps they are about even with Red Bull who also now have KERS. Red Bull in the past would have dominated Sector 2 here with their aero advantage but McLaren have just about matched them everywhere this weekend. They are right up there now in my opinion, the car's good and in theory should have plenty of development left in it.

Still think Red Bull will win this one but it should be a good one, rain or shine.
 
Storms are a coming!!!
