Ferrari are looking better then I expected, McLaren are looking worst then I expected.
My opinion on Qualy
I thought it was ok, for sure much better then all the other formats they tried over last few seasons(the single lap BS). But I still feel the old 1 hour is the best.
I was somewhat suprised by the performance of Ferrari didnt expect them to be right up there(at this stage), other suprises: Webber, Heidfeld and Klien, they did a really good job imo. I was also a bit suprised by Montoya being at the sharp end, I was expecting the McLaren to be at the lower end of the top ten(for the start of the season anyway). Also a bit dissapointed by Renault, I thought at least one car would make the top three.
Final Race prediction(since I wont be here till after the race tomorow):
My favorite for the win is Michael Schumacher, I think he can take this one unless Massa takes him out at the first corner. Im expecting Massa to either mistake at some point and drop back or to just drop back, Button is looking good for a podium but having said that he's got Alonso and Montoya behind him and just perhaps may be carying more fuel. I dont think Raikonen will get higher then eight(if he finishes), some people even think he might make the podium but from my point of view thats very unlikely and unrealistic. I think both Williams and BWM-Sauber are looking quite good for points but I cant see Klien holding a points position for long. It will definitly be a interesting race imo.
1. M. Schumacher
2. Button
3. Montoya
4. Alonso
5. Webber
6. Fisichella
7. Heidfeld
8. Rosberg
I'm from England
My driver of the day has to be Nico Rosberg, although he finished 7th, if he didn't have his nosecone knocked off at the start, he could of been fighting with Button and Raikkonen.

I agree with you on Rosberg, definitly the drive of the race. Also a great drive by Raikkonen.
