I suspect Massa is lighter than Michael. The time set by Michael in the second session was stunning. Michael did make a mistake on his first run in Q3 and that may be due to a heavy fuel load.

We'll know tomorrow if they all survive the first turn! That is a pretty tight left hander!

Initial thoughts would have been for brake temperature. Maybe some aerodynamicist has worked out the airflow over the side of the wheel is causing drag and this is the end result.
