Dramatic final few seconds of the session however, knocked out are:
Barrichello, Speed, Coulthard, Liuzzi, Sutil, Albers.

Top 10: Raikkonen, Hamilton, Kubica, Alonso, Massa, Heidfeld, Webber, Davidson, Trulli and Fisichella.

Very impressive perfomances from Hamilton, Kubica and Davidson. Well done!

Also Webber is worth a mention as he made it into the top 10 while his teammate failed to qualify

What is even more impressive with Davidson's time is that he went wide in the 3rd sector and lost a fair bit of time!

The Super Aguri can't be a clone of last year's Honda or can it ? What have they done to it ? And what have Honda done this year!!
