Track is wet but it isn't raining at the moment. Bad weather is expected later though.

First Qualifying about to start. Drivers go out in reverse order of how they finished in the previous race (Brazil 2004). New drivers go out in numerical order.

I hope the rain holds. Montoya and Raikkonen will be the last to go out.
