He did that in Bahrain. Di resta can be a right moaner over the radio when he wants to. Shame for him though, tires were gone.

It was clear today that the cars that are the most agressive to their tires had quite an advantage. Lotus and Ferrari didn't stand a chance.

Exactly right, Herbert just saying the same thing.

Ordinarily you'd think that KR and FA would benefit from that in the race (now Hill is saying the same as I'm typing this) but not necessarily here. I wonder if Lotus and Ferrari will do one stop and the others in front will not be able to?

Extremely important 2 thousandths of a second for Kimi, ahead of Fernando.

RB, Ferrari & Lotus possibly could've done a 1 stop from Thursdays times, Mercedes not.

Brawn saying on Sky they need to hope the rain hasn't changed the track too much.

So two stops from the Merc and the Bulls and one for Kimi and Alonso ? That's may be.

If there's one race I don't mind the destructo-tires and rain in it's Monaco. Otherwise it bores me.

What happened to Grosjean? He was fast the moment he came out of the box, so how did he lost out in Q2?

A shame it rained. If it didn't, the track record wouid have been broken.

Can't help but remember schumi out qualifying rosberg here (and lots of other places) last year. As brundle pointed out recently on Twitter, rosberg's form this year underlines how fast a 43 year-old Schumacher still was.
