It can be said Alonso was unlucky* but that doesn't mean other were lucky bcoz of that.

*Actually something technically was wrong.

Ok, then, well circumstantially Lewis was in because Alonso was out. luck or circumstance?? I think it's perfectly within people's rights to call lewis Hamilton unlucky. He's the luckiest devil of them all.

in racing if someone is unlucky it results in a better result for someone else, in this case it was the 10th place in Q2 which was.. tum tum tum.. Lewis!

Renault piece of s***! :<>:

Very sad and frustrating qualy for me, becuse for once the Renault looked really competitive. Well, at least the Renault in Alonso's hands, the Piquet one we can forget.

Seems like the bad luck will never end. :( :( :(

Oh well good luck to everybody tomorrow, I think Massa will win it unless there are SCs and/or rain, then anything can happen.

It's good to see Williams in the top ten for the fist time in 2 years ,they look heavy on fuel too. The chances of a safety car or something are pretty high, and if that does happen, they'll certainly gain a lot.

Definetly. Nice to see Nico and Kazuki going. And here it starts again.(?) Hamilton had way too much pushing too hard and was very nervous. Massa is VERY strong position to race day. I'm glad, that also Kubica made a good lap. And about that safety car, well... that's what we said at Valencia.. but hopefully this race is going to be more exciting than Valencia.

To be honest unless there's a crash I can't see this race being particularly entertaining.Maybe Alonso could provide some action from 15th but I can't see there being much overtaking.But a safety car is more than possible at some point

For having both cars in the top ten. Wurz never managed it I think.
