So it was a fairly enjoyable ‘Qualie session this morning - which I watched from the Easy Chair at Tomaso Manor... Although I must say I was rootin’ against “Louise ‘JAGUAR” Hamilton sweeping to Pole whilst in the dying moments thee ‘Kimster (Kimi Raikkonen) had knocked ‘Homeboy Fredrico Suave (Alonso) from the Catbyrd seat...
And where did this Pastor Maldonado chap come from, eh? Holy Toto Wolves Batman! As I was more impressed by Maldonado’s debutant front row finish than Hamilton ’s Pole position, which was to be McLaren’s 150th Pole...
But it was all for naught, as I was wondering what’s up with the Brit having stopped on track on his cool down lap, as it’d later turn out that somebody at McLaren had not topped off the fuel tanks properly; Aye Karumba! Hmm? Hope it wasn’t the same Bloody chap who’d done a similar thingy to both Dashley LePew (Dario Franchitti) and Scott Dixon at last year’s Indy 500; YIKES!
And perhaps it’s just Mwah; BUTT! Did I miss something? As SPEED’s Bob Varsha quoted that it was Team Willy’s first Front-row start in some six-years - since Mark ‘Handlebarz Webber had sat on the Front-row at Monaco ... WTF? Doesn’t thee Incredible Hulk’s (Nico Hulkenberg) shock Pole at Sao Paolo , Brazil at the Interlagos circuit in 2010 count?
And I don’t know if it’s got something to do with the lack of tyres or not? But isn’t it interesting that Sergio Perez, both Lotuses or Loti and Mercedes Nico Rosberg ALL qualified ahead of Master ‘Zebb (Vettel) who wound-up provisionally P8! As now everybody on the grid will move forward one place thanks to Hamilton ’s subsequent Post-qualifying penalty, as Lewis will roll off P24!
OH SHIT! Does this mean that Alonso could potentially win the race by jumping ahead of the newcomer Maldonado and then keeping him at bay the rest of the way? Tune-in tomorrow...
