At least the Germans have a recent Champion to tout... Recent being at least in my lifetime. |

It has made me raise an eyebrow ..... But lets not get carried away, this is only practice and one swallow does not a summer make ... but I am more optimistic about the lad now than I was when he was announced as a driver for this year. Here's hoping that he can continue his progress. |

Nakajima has never been faster than Rosberg in the races. He did set a faster lap than Rosberg at Brazil, but it was a one off as he ended up almost a lap behind him. |

Friday testing is just that. I'm pretty sure Nicco is ahead in Sunday sessions. How are they split in quali? |

That was the most enjoyable practice session ive seen this year... 1st practice Massa was sublime. he really worked that ferrari; lots of tuning of the brake balance in the lap. 2nd practice was a real race for fastest lap wih most of the front runners doing a quali practice near the end of the session. cracking. Ive got a feeling this race is going to be a stonker! |

Wrong, no-one batted an eyelid because it was expected. Yet whenever Nakajima does better in practice it seems to be headline news. Practice times mean nothing. If Nakajima beats Rosberg in a straight fight in a race sometime, then yes, praise. But as has been pointed out, Rosberg was ahead of Nakajima last race when he retired, despite being outqualified. |
