They put a new rear wing on but it made the car 'undriveable' according to Mr Dolmeo so they took it off.
The F1 Thread 2011 Season

- Start date
Some people just don't like him Lewis Hamiltons number 1 fan over there.
I see the Vettel moaning is out again, every weekend it seems. Dude's got the fastest car and a soft teammate, expect a dominating season and just accept it.
They were told their rear wing was illegal and had to go back to the old one.
I like Seb what does everyone want him to do drive slow for the sake of it so everyone else has a chance.
I didn't realise the Ferrari rear wing had been ruled illegal! Gutted!
Think it was ruled illegal, caught it fleetingly as working at the same time.
And Q1 begins..
Will be fascinating and competitive....till Vettel has his lap.
Looks like hard tyres will get a few through Q1
Looks like heidfeld is fecked, still no floor on the car yet
Lewis with "massive understeer"
Why did Pirelli feel the need to feck around with the tyres.
Oh apparently vettel on a flyer now - shocker!
he's only done one lap hasn't he?
More than enough.
More Ferrari's out on softs to "make sure they get into Q2"
Ferrari and Merc used softs without needing to.
lulz.
lulz.
Heikki has gotten through, nice job Lotus.
Ferrari and Merc big mistake.
God brundle and co talk some shit. I wonder if he's aware that teams have 3 sets of softs. More then likely they used their oldest set 'which wouldn't actually be that old' but still enough to make them faster then a used set of hards.
Its like the old, will he run out of fuel crap they bang on with...

@ Rubens on the car, "it's a bit of a mess..."marchi > Brundle
Well if it didn't mean anything they would all go out on the option and save themselves the headache. They still use a set of tyres they either could have used in Q2/Q3 or have to use in the race tomorrow.
In other news, Anthony Hamilton is popular in Spain ain't he.
1:21:540 again on the first lap.
That will see him to Q3.
That will see him to Q3.
So vettel heads out in Q2 early so that he can do a lap and then relax in the garage, decides to rub everyone's face in it by not using kers...
McLaren are closer I think, Red Bull are known to run a different engine map in quali which gives them extra time over a lap, you then have the DRS which they can open seemingly mid corner where McLaren cannot and also run a wider angle of DRS.
Still much faster in F1 terms but atleast at a traditional Red Bull circuit the gap is not massive. I think going forward they can atleast challenge them now and again.

Vettel's KERS not working
Massa lucky boy scrapes through in 10th
Heikki 15th, awesome. Di Resta is doing very well against a highly rated team mate too.
Common sense and logical reasoning > Brundle
But in all seriousness how anybody can believe half the shit commentators in motorsport bang on with is beyond me. Their job is to entertain not necessarily be factual. Especially in the role that Brundle has not so much DC.
Again if you ever hear them say 'will he run out of fuel' take that with the biggest handful of salt you can get. Teams monitor that shit from the first lap of the race and they know how much fuel he'll have at any time, down to the last ml in the catch tank.
marchi has got his controversial head on again.
I'm gonna go with a bold prediction here and say Vettel on pole.

If anyone ever runs out of fuel they deserve it lol.
I notice brundle does not say "mighty" as much as he did at the start if the season
Brundle is very knowledgeable, as is DC sat alongside him, and the comments on the use of soft tyres were bang on.
With regards fuel, there have been times this season where it's seemed that someone has had to preserve fuel because they've been more aggressive in the earlier stages than was planned for and burned off more than expected.

Here we go vettel is out, so it's an out lap and then a pole lap for him
If Vettel's KERS isn't working I reckon Webber on pole, if it is working then Seb.
Come on JB give me something to smile about
Never mind, vettel on a flyer so that's that
