FIA Formula One Championship 2013

So... what did I say about sandbagging?

Rare turn of speed for Nico. He outperformed everyone in Q2 and Q3. Wonder if Lewis had set-up problems after that gearbox change.

Massa a dark horse for the win. Starting in P4 with the hard tires. As long as the Ferraris can do their trademark quick starts tomorrow, it's in the bag.

Let's see if Nico will have a race pace tomorrow. Vettel must overtake Nico the soonest else his front tires will start chipping away.

Nice is a very aggressive defender, but if the Merc is heavy off the line or doesn't work on cold tires, he's minced meat. He's got Vettel and Alonso behind him, and all bets say that they won't be there for very long.

Tyre management and strategy is the key for winning the race tomorrow.... Profound!

Delamination seems to be a norm of Pirelli's butter tire this season.

Yup, I am closely observing Massa's strategy tonight....... Could be a winner.....

I'm so disappointed with the tires right now. Pirelli you suck.

Looks like Massa's rear tire suffered a delamination and to box and Alonso has to box prematurely. Vettel on the other hand is enjoying a crazy pace on hard compound right now.

[ClaNker]

Crap Massas's rear right rubber disintegrated. Idiot Pirelli for sure will use the debris excuse on this one again.

DRS failure sa Ferrari? it is not like that ah.

When FA had that problem in the car, and KR was too far from SV... I started watering the plants in the garden....

Epic battle between teammates.

Team boss Martin Whitmarsh had complained recently that the British team's new Mexican recruit was being "too polite" this year, and urged him to use his "elbows".

The 23-year-old obliged on Sunday in Bahrain, but the subject of his aggression was Jenson Button, in the sister MP4-28.

"Emotions were running high," said Button afterwards, excusing his radio anger.

Indeed, the 2009 world champion pleaded with his team to "Calm him (Perez) down!), adding after yet another exchange of bodywork: "Come on guys!"

Button told the BBC: "I would say exactly the same again. The racing was great out there. The only person that wasn't was Checo (Perez).

In my mind I thought Perez is going to wreck both McLaren while watching that race.

[Parkuu]

Good job for Raikkonen and Di Resta on doing that 2 stop strategy!

[ClaNker]

Brilliant driving by Vettel! Never lost the position and even setting the fastest lap at lap 55 on the abused rubber.

Excelent pole by Lotus and the Iceman never fails.

Webber's out by the end of the season.

Raceday na lang inaabangan ko. Qualifying positions walang kwenta na pag-race, dahil sa tires.
