I haven't seen any of the practice sessions yet so I'm interested to see what the new layout is like.

Hell -- I didn't even realize they'd made changes to the venue......or is this a totally new track?

They made a few changes to the last quarter of the track.

Yeah, they didn't go over well at first but from what I heard recently they ended up liking the changes.

Sector 2 seems to be where the Red Bulls separate themselves from the rest of the field -- almost .4 in that sector alone, S1 & S3 are a wash, at least so far in Q1

Looks like the race for position is going to be for 3rd on back -- RBs are looking VERY strong today...

All Red Bull Front Row -- will be interesting to see how the race plays out -- most interesting was to see the delta between Lewis & Jensen, one makes it to P4 with a struggling car and the other doesn't make it past Q2 -- interesting...

Red Bulls will dominate. I bet one of them is going to break, though. Probably Vettel... he's harder on the car than Webber.

Agreed, I think the only way anyone else has a chance for 1&2 is for a wreck or mechanical failure with one (or both) of the RBs - everyone else is racing for the last podium position....
OK, back to work, gotta get stuff done before the Cup race tonight.....

Just got back from the race. amazing atmosphere at silverstone. Everyone cheered when Vettel went off lol. the crowd went crazy every time Hamilton got close to Webber. To bad he couldn't win it though. I'm still glad Webber won it over Vettel to show hes just as good as that brat.

It also says he wouldn't have stayed if he would have known he'd be number 2 to Vettel...

So what was the deal with the weird weather today -- was that actually the Sun shinning at Silverstone? Unheard of...... Was an interesting race, especially with Alonzo "self destructing"...
