Early indications are that McLaren will be on their own at the front. It will be hotter during qualifying and the race and that may change things!

Ah 8) That's your secret of eternal youth then.

Lewis will have upset Fernando with that little run. I suspect he was hoping for a bit of an advantage. :roll:

I think the McLaren's are taking it easy. They don't want to risk their engines as this is the second race for the engines.

It certainly will be close though.

CORRECTION: It is the first race for their engines. Thanks Snowy :wink:
