A little disappointed that Button and Hamilton didn't get higher, but a brilliant effort from Di Resta and a superb drive by Webber to get to pole.

To do with the blown diffusers.

It was an ok quali. Just hope we get changable conditions for the race tomorrow

Ditto

I think button will pull out some awesome laps though.

what is Hamilton doing? is he doing the typical spoilt brat antics by being a spoilsport.

i don't know Rob i think tomorrow his performance will be so-so, they even said he's taken a few knockings recently on his races, he does remind me of the hopeless winner that comes 2nd and gives up

I'm guessing then are they using exhaust gas pointing at the diffusers ?

Steve from what i understand the exhausts point at the diffusers.

Then when they are on the brakes and cornering they are bliping the throttle to force exhaust gasses onto the diffuser effectivly making more downforce. I don't know if this is something the drivers are doing or if it is software controled

i believe its software controlled cause the new rules were meant to limit it to 10% or 50% (think it was 10 but RB complained and got it up to 50, then mclaren complained)

This is why the engines sounded really rough through the slow corners when they are off throttle............
