I expect the Red Bulls to get pole, and pretty much the race win barring any engine reliability issues.

This is a demanding circuit on the front tyres as Bridgestone has acknowledged. I pretty much expect Pork Slice to do a 2 stopper, or 3 if he continues to drive his MP4-25 like Mario Cart.

The tyre care maestros, Button, and Alonso could very well get away with just one-stopping. But even then, it may not be enough to catch the Red Bulls if indeed their pace is what is rumored to be.

So here's my prediction:

P1: Mark Webber
P2: Seb Vettel
P3: Jenson Button

 

[Canew]

Tomorrow's starting grid: Red Bull, McLaren, Red Bull, McLaren.

The crash between the 2 Red Bulls benefited the 2 McLarens.

Alamak they should have crashed the 2 Mclarens mah...:bsmilie:

 

[kelccm]

Wah, pork slice won. Not a good weekend for Ferrari, but good to see Schumi improving.

 

[Canew]

Alamak they should have crashed the 2 Mclarens mah...:bsmilie:

No la. McLarens not as rampaging as the Bulls.

 

[mohgui]

i was hoping the McLarens would take each other out too... but i was disappointed.

it was a double disappointment when i see Alonso fighting with Petrov for position. wtf?!?! is Ferrari losing its season-opener advantage? the red-shirts in Bangkok is over but that doesn't mean the red cars in F1 must follow.

haiz...

 

[Evilmerlin]

Vettel is insane!

 

[Gunbucker]

Vettel is insane!

Let's just say he won't be getting any Christmas cards from Mark Webber this year :bsmilie:

To be fair, Pork Slice would've done the same on his team mate (or worse!!!) under the circumstances. Webber was on the fuel saving mode where Vettel had one good lap's worth of fuel so he gave it a go. Unfortunately he forgot that his team mate was the least generous person on the grid.

 

[flowerpot]

Button would have retain the lead if he keep to the inside line rather than moving out to the racing line and allow Hammy to cut in...

anyway we all know Button race much fair than Hammy...:bsmilie:

 

[mohgui]

who sends Christmas cards these days anyway? :dunno: :bsmilie:
