On the strange side of things, if you look at hamilton's 3 lap times, he's nearly as fast in Q1 as in Q2, which means probably that he was already running super light in Q1 to make sure he got through.
Yeah Mclaren seemed less confident of the difference it would make to do that, but he's certainly further forward than before so maybe their winter issues have just made them wary of assuming gains in the windtunnel will convert?

Were Piquet/Kova... running the parts, cos if so the number two's look a bit kack compared to their teammates again!!

Also, didn't hear, did Vettel have problems? Why was he only doing one lap each session?
