I am not game to be picking Sebashem because there are several drivers out there who, if not in a point scoring position, might show him the wall, and an early shower... 8)

Julian:

Interesting notion that Jense or some of the other chaps might want to squeeze the kid into the wall or a nice gravel patch. But Jense, for example, has too much to lose messing with that sort of game. Same for Robert Kubica. And remember, if anyone has a beef with him it's his team mate, but he, too, is too smart for such shenanigans. If he gets too close to Fernando ... maybe. Anyway, I look forward to the race.

Hmm. I think I got just about everything wrong. Quite an impressive feat :P

Really surprised how far off the pace Vettel was in qualifying.
