F1 - Malaysia (Qualifying)

[Nereo]

Hamilton is the best driver but ferrari are the best car makers

If Hamilton was the best driver how come his teammate had a better place ey?

Sato would just go abit crazy and crash it methinks

Sato is just a quiet, conservative driver.

Who would've though Kovalienen would be where he is now - it's only because he's got a McLaren.

I always though of Sato as quite aggresive, he used to be alright when he first came to F1 I remember, didn't he used to be with Honda?

My alarm has been set since last week :8

[Blue]

I would watch it, but I needs the sleep

[brandon]

I hope to catch the last 10 laps. I don't like watching it all because I find it a bit boring, around the last 10 laps are enjoyable though.

Sorry, but when did Ferriari complain?
It was Hiedfeld that complained, so what the hell are you on about!?!
Anyway, the better team on the day got pole position, and you can't expect Hamilton to get pole every single race.

I said if Ferrari are ever doing badly (They have very few points due to last weekend) then the FIA always step in to penalise McLaren, it's been going on for years, it didn't begin last year. However I do agree with what you said about Hamilton, people expect far to much of him now, especially after last weekend. It's ironic how both McLaren's where penalised as per usual :S

Hamilton's grid position was bad enough at 4th but know being in 9th place just tops it off for me.
The Fia have issues still Mclaren after last season? F1 is starting to turn out into a politics show not a sport. Ferrari are never satisfied, there the quickest guys out on the track in a class of there own with there main rivals on the second row but its just not good enough for them.
Prey for more reliability problems for Ferrari.

I'm sure Hamilton could of made good use of fourth, a good start could easily get him second, he could also be carrying a lot more fuel which explains his 'not so good' qualifying position, however having more fuel means he can stay out on the track longer while everyone else is pitting. It's a quite common fuelling strategy, however now he's ninth he is in trouble, podium is still a good possibility though.

The better car got pole.

I'm sure if, say, Sato was put behind the wheel of a Ferarri - he'd get pole.

You can't say the better car got pole, there's been one race this year so who knows which is the best car, in testing it's been very close and last weekends results are nothing to go on as they where so unpredictable.

If Hamilton was the best driver how come his teammate had a better place ey?

Cause one qualifying session doesn't determine who's the best driver does it? It takes a season to establish who the best driver was, and clearly Raikonnen was the best last year as he won despite everything.

I always though of Sato as quite aggresive, he used to be alright when he first came to F1 I remember, didn't he used to be with Honda?

Yeah he was with Jordan (Mugen Honda).

Who would've though Kovalienen would be where he is now - it's only because he's got a McLaren.

That's very wrong, if you followed his pre-F1 racing career you'd find that he did extremely well and was expected to be a star of the future along with Hamilton and Kubica, them three young driver's are all expected to be future stars. Those predictions where made years ago. It was Kovalanien's first year last year so he didn't do to well, and he was with Renault who had problems, but he's an awesome driver as you'll see tomorrow and over the coming grand prix's, he was incredibly unlucky in Australia.
