2008 Brazilian Grand Prix - Title Decider

good lap by Hamilton - 7th even with a lock-up and is it wet?

no offense, but a lock-up doesn't mean you lose time

umm yes it does if it pushes you wide.

yes: if!! But when you don't see the driver steer again, then you don't lose time, Hamilton most of the time doesn't lose time with it

fine, if you want me to say it was an ok lap from Hamilton, I will. You can lose time from a lock-up if you go wide (like fuji) but I guess he didn't go wide on that lap. Anyway he's 5th now.

BMW: "Looks like it's gonna rain at the end of the session."

[F1~Michi]

McLaren is obviously struggling, while Massa confirms his pace with a 1:12.3, McLaren are struggling with several tenths off Massa's time... Well...

Rain falling more.

Lewis main reliability worry is the gearbox (this is its 3rd race) rather than the engine , this explains why he has done fewer P laps today

[kimi and mika]

Raikkonen is around Hamilton's pace. I say it's just Massa's pace that makes the others look bad. But Trulli and Vettel are up there with Rosberg and Nakajima.

Raikkonen now 3rd, Webber 4th...maybe McLaren is slower.

Thats odd because you can use another engine and gearbox on a Friday.

Kimi goes P3 - Lewis back for the media lap

[F1~Michi]

Oh oh oh, Alonso in first!

[kimi and mika]

Alonso fastest!

[megasyxx]

super lap from alonso....1.12.296, though its only fp2

[megasyxx]

massa and trulli respond.....5 hundreths and a tenth off respectively

[kimi and mika]

Lewis' lock-up, tbh I was waiting for that, kind of a lot of pressure on that lap.

same gearbox on Fri as for Sat/Sun
