CAN'T WAIT QUALIFYING SOON

So what you think? I hoep some of you are online now so we can chat now! lol. Really gearing up for it. - Some of u Europeans will get to see the practice sessions (some live maybe?) - we don't here in the UK So the qualifying is the first we'll get to see

I cannot wait!!!!

My 3 predictions for quali:

1. Massa / Alonso on pole.
2. Honda to not make it pass #10 on the grid
3. Super Aguri to out qualify Spyker and Torro Rosso!

Your thoughts please...

I followed the sessions on formula1.com's live timing.
Of course here in Hungary we can't see the free practices.

Same here

Yes, I checked them out earlier. Still, nothing beats hearing the soudns of the car whizzing around!

Oh yeah!

Which channell do you see the races? Here on RTL Klub.

German TV will apparently show an edit of the 3rd practice, so we get to see some pictures from that.

But hey, qualifying is much more important.

I'm really excited about the new season too. Lots of interesting things going on this weekend already.

ITV.

Their site is class too.

Martin Brundle does colour commentary, and sometimes drivers pop in (like old ones, current test drivers, and even ones out injured).

Anthony Davidson was commentating (filling in for Brundle) when Button won his first race. HE WENT CRAZY! lol - He was a really good commentator too. He should definitely do this when his career ends (or if he wishes to do it at the same time, if he goes on to race in less competitve racing).

My prediction for the qualifying:
First three rows
1. Raikkonen
Massa
2. Alonso
Fisichella
3. Hamilton
Heidfeld

Possible?

See I don't think Fisi / Reno will be there abouts. I really don't. I'd bet to say BMW may even be battling with Renault this year as I DO believe it's a 2 team race this year with Ferrari and McLaren.

Is the qualifying rules as the same as last year?

Late answer, but yes... the same shoot-out concept we've seen last season.

Aaand we have Kimi Raikkonen as the first polesitter this year. Congratulations!

That was an interesting qualifying session. Certainly the last part. The times wasn't as fast as the first two. And the Super Aguris outqualified the Hondas.

[In germany we can see the first and second practise live on DSF]

I watched the qualy todays night and it was cool!
I bet (past tense of it?!?) on Heidfeld and won...

I just saw the repeat of the qualifying. Really sad for Massa, fantastic result for Sato.
