Brazilian GP – Qualifying

October 17, 2009

Qualifying is ongoing at the moment, but shockingly Sebastien Vettel, Lewis Hamilton and Heikki Kovalainen were out in Q1.

Monza – F1 2009

September 13, 2009

Monza certainly lived up to the fearsome reputation for speed this afternoon – though there were several smaller dramas than one big one.
