I know he has a new engine but this engine is to be used in Australia too!
Here is my explanation:
Ross Brawn: That Massa kid is pretty fast Michael
You know he isn't like Barrichello, we don't let him touch the car in the winter yet he did better than you in qualifying (you know he had more fuel don't you)
(Michael shakes his head)
Ross Brawn: So what are we going to do ? We can't keep playing with the brakes otherwise Jean's son would start getting suspicious.
Michael: Perhaps we can play a bit with his engine ?
Ross Brawn: What a brilliant idea Michael, you always come up with those great ideas. We can say that when he went off too much sand got into his engine and we need to replace it.
Michael: What a brilliant idea
Ross Brawn: That way we'll make sure he is at least 10 places behind you. And if he gets close, we'll stuff up his second pit stop. Make sure you hide that tyre on your way out! We don't want him to do what Raikkonen did to Montoya on you OK!
Michael: Also get him to do a lot of laps on Friday, tell him he's got a fresh engine, that should also stuff him up for Australia
Ross Brawn: You are a genious Michael
No offence guys

Saturday Practice: Michael Schumacher fastest ahead of Fernando Alonso and Giancarlo Fisichella. Jenson Button, Christian Klien, Kimi Raikkonen, Ralf Schumacher and Nico Rosberg Button make the top 8 -
Full Results
No major incidents during the session although Massa did have a spin.
Michael and Alonso seem to be in a league of their own here. We don't know fuel loads though!
Qualifying shortly

two comments...
it is of course early to say what i gonna say, but il looks like the most fragile engine is the ferrari v8, only one race and 75% of their engines are dead...
The fact that NicoRos. is in P3 here is of course great, but for me more impressive is the fact that in his first year with the team, in his 2nd race ever he has outqualifyed the Q-master Webber who is in his 2nd YEAR with the car...
