Chinese F1 GP

Well Lewis already has a 5 place grid penalty for a gearbox swap so a chance for Jenson to grab his first Mclaren pole

[Monkey]

I think it could be a false pole, ie Lewis will actually be on pole, but it will be gifted to Jenson.

but, the weather looks to be in Jensons favour

[Vez]

If Jenson can get the car to turn in! I hope Schuey gets his first

[schumi84]

With Lewis' penalty I am now predicting a Mercedes Pole, with possibly Button 2nd. As for the rest of the grid it could be anybody's guess, especially after the changeable conditions for 1st practice.

With regards to the race, I can see a McLaren whitewash with RBR close behind

[Johnny]

I am just hoping that Hamilton can take Vetel out on his way up from 6th

[nitrodave]

As long as vettel is down in the ranks then i'll be happy, got boring watching him win so often last season.

Shame about Hamilton though, let's see what he can do on raceday.

Looks like a first pole for MSC tomorrow, maybe a podium if tyres hold up If it's dry on sunda i'm sure the'll benefit a lot from their DRS + F-duck thing that's now been declared legal so Lotus and Red Bull can stop whining

[ollieryan2005]

i work for mclaren and am pretty sure jenson will pull out a good pole but lewis will come back up through the race

[Rubix_Cube]

Oaft there was a shock! Very tight q3

[schumi84]

Amazed at how close it was throughout the first 2 qualifying sessions, big well done to Nico for the pole, just hope MSC can get the jump on him at the start

I'm sure he'll do his damnedest

[Chriscooke]

I hope Rosberg doesn't win it, he's soooooooooo dull. I'd love schumacher or kobiashi (sp?) to win it even though I'm a Mclaren fan

[schumi84]

Having Kobaybashi (see what I did there? ) and Kimi up near the sharp end will certainly make it interesting hopefully not just for the first few laps, especially with the McLarens and Red Bulls fighting through the field. It certainly has all the makings of an excellent race, just hope there aren't any silly safety cars to ruin the fun.

[sideways14a]

Shumi for t win imho.... Rosberg will kack it.

[Chriscooke]

My gut is still saying it'll be a Mclaren win. The sauber is great on it's tyres but they have the wrong driver up front this time imo and the merc will destroy it's tyres and go backwards as the race goes on I think. I'd put money on Schumi beating rosberg if I had any

[Pete C]

My money's on Webber I think. Would like to see Lewis come through for the win though.

[MEL]

Love to see a sauber on the podium

[igralec]

Schumi's pit crew deja vu

[Rubix_Cube]

Fantastic race.

[Pete C]

Great job by the BBC there I thought, far superior to Sky's coverage.
