OK. Qualifying for Belgium is tomorrow. What are the predictions/speculations?

I'll go first. Sebastian will qualify at the top of the field with a Lotus right behind him. Lewis will split the Lotui with Jenson immediately behind them.

The race will be a different matter. Alonzo will finish somewhere in the top 3. If it rains, he will win going away.

Opinions based on rank speculation.

Ok George I'll play. But your predictions have too many conditions! Pick one pole and your podium!

Mine:

Pole: HAM
1: HAM
2: ALO
3: RAI

 

[GeorgeSSS]

You're right. I need to be decisive:

Pole: Vettel
1. Rai
2. Ham
3. Alo

I would put the moody Fin on Pole. Schmui 2nd or 3rd on the grid.

Alonso to win, Webber 2nd, Vettel 3rd, Button 4th, Hamilton DNF after a coming together with Maldonado.

 

[GeorgeSSS]

... ... ... Hamilton DNF after a coming together with Maldonado.

I am laughing out loud. What a great prediction. You get an A+ grade on that one.

Qualifying is over. Jensen surprised us all.

In our private pool, Boxer is the provisional leader since he at least mentioned Jensen in his results list. (I make up these rules as I go along. They are arbitrary and capricious and based on momentary whim.)

Not only that, but MAL gets a 3 spot penalty that puts him right next to HAM!!!!

Seems Lewis and team made the wrong wing choice. Hopefully less of a factor tomorrow when DRS use is limited. But he doesn't seem hopeful.

Great job by JB, he walked it. The MP4/27 looks very quick, so the updates must be working.

Like the new X fighter winglets,well done JB

You do realize that you may have your 12C confiscated for even saying such a thing!

Did i really say that,a moment of weakness after Lewis expressed his concern

Oh, it was safety-related. Thought you meant you felt bad for his DNF!

Great race JB and the team. Romain.... Romain!!!

t-shirt: I agree.

JB: Amazing job. The season is just 1/2 over. Plenty of time to win it all with that kind of pace.

I got Lewis being taken out correct. Not my fault that Romain got to hm before Maldonado could.

I am a Grosjean fan, but Sunday was ridiculous. This is at least the third time he's crowded others off the track on the first lap (Australia and Monaco come to mind, if I'm remembering correctly). Banning him for Monza is justified.

 

[Ritesh]

Great predictions Boxer!

Great race for JB. I'm glad to see him get back on top again. I was worried about him after a series of bad finishes. Sadly SV coming second and MW finishing in points doesn't help McLaren's gain on RBR for the Constructor title!

JB is a great guy and it is good to see him doing well again. Both Jenson & Alsonso are class acts and able to keep cool regardless of the situation. Hamilton seems to have the maturity of the average 12 year old (Tweeting telemetary?????) and Vettel's Princess Stampy Foot routine when everything isn't going right really is funny.

Agree, Maldonado should have been given a 1 race ban as well as a serial repeat offender. Only suprise is that his jump start did not cause a huge pile up.

I'm glad you said Alsonso. For a second there I thought you said Alonso was a class act.
