So look for the late apex drivers to step up beyond their usual standing. (And, IIRC, Alonso tends to use an early apex.)

According to the brochure, it's Page & Moy.

I have to go with the comment above that all four Brits could score well next weekend, with Davidson giving Super Aguri their biggest points finish to date. Sato might have the edge in the "big balls" stuff, but when it comes to finesse on the tighter tracks, the Brit reverses the position. Even at Pau in 2001 in the same car, Sato had no other option but to agree his team-mate excelled on such tracks.

PLease don't do a Murray and put the mockers on ant. :(

Never have VB and never would... And after speaking to him a couple of weeks ago, it was Monaco that appeared to be exciting him the most so far this year!

Will this be posted on youtube? I don't think you will get many viewers :p :

Hamilton won't win unless McLaren allow him to qualify lighter than he has done so far this year.

What are you talking about and what proof do you have ?

Huh? Allow and allow, Hamilton has usually qualified with more fuel than Alonso, hasn't he?

Australia: Hamilton +1 lap fuel, +.262 secs.
Malaysia: Hamilton +2 laps fuel, +.735 secs.
Bahrain: Hamilton -4 laps fuel, -.257 secs.
Spain: Hamilton +2 laps fuel, +.334 secs.

He only qualified lighter once, 4 laps lighter, and he was .257 faster.

At the very least Hamilton is a solid starter. The run down the the first corner will be pivitol, but honestly, I don't think Hamilton will be in the battle for victory next week. I just got the feeling he'll make one mistake that will cost him dearly.

i think hamilton will right off his car in qualifying and have to start towards the back

just a hunch
