F1 Quals: Japan 2010, Take Two
The skies above Suzuka are reported to be sunny and clear, and the Quals for the 2010 Grand Prix of Japan went off without a hitch! Here's the provisional grid:
Pretty dominant performance for Seb Vettel, what with being fastest in every session. This would be Red Bull's first front-row lockout since Hungary. Lewis Hamilton would have been in great shape to run with the Bulls, but his five-spot grid penalty for a gearbox change will drop him back to 8th. It'll be interesting to find out what happened to Massa, particularly when his teammate is so much farther up the grid.
Any interesting details will have to wait until I actually see the session, of course, which won't be shown on SPEED for another 90 minutes. Of course, F1 Update! will be all over the race. If anything particularly blogworthy occurs, we'll pop in with a live update. Gonna be a late night here at Pond Central...

I actually stayed up for the race -- long enough to see the beginning and the end. *sigh* Looking forward to your F1 Update!

Sadly Lewis has to take a penalty for gearbox swap.

You mean that penalty, Pete?
