The last time Williams drove on a second race engine, they released the evil spirits from the motor out of the exhaust. I hope they do better.
Alex has been flogging the guts out of 'em....fingers crossed :lol:

Second: Kimi Raikkonen

Third: Jenson Button

Fourth: Michael Schumacher

Fifth: Juan Pablo Montoya

Sixth: Giancarlo Fisichella

Seventh: Rubens Barrichello

Stuck with the same 8 that served me well last round but shuffled them up a bit. Kimi was blisteringly fast last year (with a little too much emphasis on blister, but remember this year he can change the tyre) and of everyone has the most to prove this weekend, so I think he will show us what he is capable of.

First: Kimi
Second: M Schu: will be up there
Third: Alonso: already slipping into championship winning mode
Fourth: Montoya: seems to be putting his head down
Fifth: Massa: is quick
Sixth: Button: still hasnt found the edge
Seventh: Webber: will wrangle another solid run out of the williams
Eighth: Fisichella: should be doing better, starting to lose faith

Pole: Kimi
All Italiano WDC 2007!

McLaren have the reliability and will have the speed.
German in Germany. Will try hard.
