During a season each team will be permitted to use four drivers. Changes may be made at any time before the start of the qualifying practice session provided any change proposed after 16.00 on the day of scrutineering receives the consent of the stewards.
Additional changes for reasons of force majeure will be considered separately.
Any new driver may score points in the Championship.

Oh well, glad Perez seems to be okay but we were robbed of a proper shootout for pole. Hamilton a second slower than we know he can go, should have been able to at least take the fight to Vettel.

Not really, I'm quite sure he was beatable, just not when you get blocked, red flagged, and then put out on cold tyres.

What you on about ? Problem with Hamilton's car initially stopped him from going out, then Massa blocked him, then the Perez crash, and then beaten by the flag for another lap.....not a great deal McLaren could have done differently

Yea, super quick time even though i feel he got some "help" to secure his time.
Let´s hope Button takes him in T1.
The truth will come out...

Well I was right, all this ferrari and mclaren can shine only in fp's i think come quali vettel is the man to beat

why he was some much slower? He was driving first in the clean air? I doubt he could touch Vettel, who seems not to push too hard in Q1&2...
