Place your bets gents.

Qualifying results:

Pole: Icebucket
Second: Fisichella
Third: Alfonso

On the practice times I'd have to go with Icebucket - a 1:26.1 in practice in an obviously light car would seem to still have Alonso beaten. Fishyfella is never that consistant. Will come down to the start and whether Ice can get a gap in the first sector I reckon.

My bets on IceB if the engine holds up.

If Kimi err Icebucket as you Euros seem to call him doesn't break something I think he will win easily. Who cares about the rest second place is just the first loser.

I have a feeling that many drivers will go off in turn 8, and the maybe 9. Ice will be one of them.

All the problems that Williams had with the tires, maybe they should have cancelled the race because of safety.

Montoya made a huge mistake on last round. The way he was hugging with Alonso makes you think if it was intentional.

Very safe and convenient place to pull wide.

He lost the difussor when that Jordan pushed him off the track, thus losing rear grip.

lol the Jordanians cant even push people off the track properly... If done right Latoya would have never gotten back on the track.

Actually Montoya cut him off directly, cutting ground effect from the Jordan and causing him to rear-end him.

Sure the Jordan should have left more space but ultimately it was Montoyas mistake.

In racing, if you hit a guy from behind, it's your fault, period.

They did.

In racing the drivers have thier own society where they agree 'rules of engagement' and Montoya broke them.

Changes of driving line are not allowed in braking situations for the very reason of potentially taking away ground effect from someone behind.

It doesn't matter. As a backmarker, Tiago should expect the leaders to return to the racing line after passing. He should have braked early to compensate. If you hit a guy in the back, it's your fault, always.

True it was Tiagos FAULT but Montoyas mistake.
