F1 Quals: Australia 2013... Q2 and Q3
After yesterday's soggy session, it looks like we've finally got a grid for Sunday's Grand Prix of Australia! Let's take a look, shall we?
From reports, Q2 started out wet but drying, and Q3 finished on the supersoft tires. I don't think anybody is going to be surprised by the men on the front row; if we're lucky, the Red Bulls won't dominate the whole year. I think the surprise has to be McLaren just being... slow. We'll see if it carries over through the race and the season.
The race is in a few hours, we'll have the F1U! tomorrow! See ya then!

Usually the times get lower in later sessions, but I don't recall a case where anyone shaved 17 seconds off their Q1 time. The track really must have changed!

Also, it looks like Hamilton may have known what he was doing, and not just following the money.

It's the difference between two tire extremes: Q1 they used full-wet tires on a track with standing water, but in Q3 they had on the super-softs on a dry track.
