    Well Done Lewis Hamilton

    I thought i would join in, you know, Massa and Kimi are on here, so let's congratulate Lewis on a successful second session in the practice with good times, and only 1/2 tenths behind Kimi. Good to see that Mclaren are closer this weekend (hopefully)

    Considering that Kimi did his time very early on that session with hard tyres and long stint and Hamilton did his best time at the end of that session with soft tyres and short stint..

    Well, one thing you have to give the lad credit for he doesnt lack confidence and the fighting spirit. Ferrari are in a class of there own and I do expect a front row grid by the pair, but he "aint" right going for it, I throughly enjoyed what he did if one considers McLaren are not on Ferrari's pace at all. And that trying to nick it at the post was genius though not a master class in how to put your car in first place. Now, who thinks many cars are going to leave their qualifying time to the very last run, as Kimi done in Spain? Who thinks a few will JUST about make it pass the line to do a qualifying time?

    The track doesnt look like one should go too light as I predict many accidents on that track (how many cars went flying?) but McLaren have to do something to keep on Ferrari's pace, no good being 2 laps heavier and qualifying 4&5, McLaren need to take the risk and go lighter and try breaking up Ferrari if possible.

    I think we're going to see another weekend with flying Ferrari's up front; but it would be nice if McLaren were a bit faster - I can't bear to think we're gonna have another snooze fest.... and I'm a Ferrari fan!

    Well I do think it is a one/two for a Ferrari win.

    But McLaren have to do something interms of strategy and trouble Ferrari a little bit, they cant be on Cruise control FOREVER, McLaren need to trouble Ferrari's gear box and engine!

     One of their guys need to get extra light, up on front row of the grid, holds up Ferrari in the race (trouble them, get them going) while the other is 1-2 laps heavier but can keep up and has the possiblity of making up some ground in the pits, I am not for in the pits, but something has to be done, Ferrari are in comfort mode!

    McLaren have to play it around abit, and go for 3rd-4th for a finish, though red bull are looking good and kubica is now a great threat..but try and break up Ferrari or bother their engines atleast!
