i don't think they have gone slower, but i think the big 2 have gone faster.

"whats up, huh?"

Hamilton has been on fire since last week. He was fastest during testing last week, fastest during practice and fastest today. This is Lewis Hamilton in top shape, close to unstoppable. It's pretty clear that he's going to win next week. finally two Mclarens qualifying in top three.

Heikki is under pressure to deliver now. He's starting third so he'd be expected to finish on podium or at top 5 or else Mclaren will start considering replacing him. It's been ages since he delivered a top driver result.

BMW are really slipping and demonstrating that Kubica is not challaenging for title. The reason they won in Canada was purely because of luck. If Hamilton and and Kimi were still in the race BMW would have had zero chances of winning. I'm hoping for a Mclaren 1-2 tomorrow. Praying that Heikki will deliver. After all Mclaren can't afford to have a driver that doesn't have the capability of taking full advantage of their car.

^ I thought Roseburg was replacing Kova next season or is that just a rumor?

i think it's just a rumour. but u never know. really depends how Kova ups his game now. but then again, i doubt Keke Rosberg will let his son join Team Hamilton.

wuho piquet is leading
i hope for him to be able to keep massa behind
