I suspect they removed them from the light fitting first - although, just how many students it takes to do this is anyones guess!

Anyone know what brand/colour paint - no self respecting painter/decorator would use anything other than Dulux........

senna just proving once again that he is not good enough for f1.
That Williams is a decent car and with a good driver in the #2, both will probably be consistent top 10 runners
at this point, he is as incompetent, accident & mistake prone as Piquet Jr.

The "wall of champions" is more of a "cushion of champions" these days...

Red Bull asked to change brake cooling as well - F1technical.net

Red Bull Racing have been asked before the Canadian GP to change the design of their front brake cooling system following an FIA inspection on the parts. The FIA considers part of the cooling system an aerodynamic advantages, and hence declares it not in line with the regulations.

WTF

I'm starting to wonder if Red Bull has been reposed above the rules?

Vettel gets a reprimand for bumping into Sennay cf. Malaysian GP where Karthikayen was penalised for being on the receiving end of Vettel's error.

I guess it won't be long till 'The Crash Kid' tag comes back.

Mark Webber made the very valid point that there are many of these rule "clarifications" during the course of a season. Perhaps it's simply a case of Red Bull making the headlines because they are the current champions.

Can’t help but feel Pirelli modified the tyres due to excessive criticism that no-one could understand the tyres so far. In any case, it looks like we are set to return to „normal order” now with those more durable tyres. Vettel is back to his best form in qualifying. Quartet RBR, McLaren, Ferrari and Mercedes seem to rise above others, so the underdogs have now little chance of creating an upset. Button looked decent in Q1 and Q2, but for some reason failed in Q3. In pre-season it was claimed that F2012 is better at heating tyres than F150. Based on Canada it seems to be the case, Alonso is a much bigger threat on Saturday.
