It is really hard to tell who is heavier actually. The first lap from Alonso was very quick so that may indicate he is light but I doubt he is too light.

On the other hand if you comparing Q2 and Q3 times, then Alonso could actually be heavier however I suspect Ferrari didn't push to the limit in Q2.

We'll know in 24 hours :D

Should be a good race and good to see McLaren closer the Ferrari here.

Rosberg continues to impress in his Williams too!

Renault and Honda are the dissapointements of the season so far :roll:
