Liuzzi is ahead of Sutil. What's that about then?
EDIT: It's gone. Alonso has improved knocking Karthikeyan over 107%

Karthekayan back in, Liuzzi just dropped it off line and yellow flag out briefly... Had that stayed out there'd have been possible conspiracy theories about deliberately doing it

Alhgersuari may well find his seat vacated for Ricciardo now, to not only go out in Q1, but be beaten by a guy with 10 minutes notice he was driving is not good for the CV!

Oh no! Crofty is saying that Virgin is the only car complying with FIA view of no off throttle blown diffusers and D'ambrosio is outside 107%... Protest pending?

Okay, so it seems my prediction worked with Custard.

Who will drop out in Q2? My prediction: The two Saubers, Buemi, Maldonado, the two Force Indias and Schumacher - meanwhile Barrichello makes it into Q3... you heard it here first :D

Indeed, normally I don't mind EJ, but he really needed to shut the hell up today. Embarrassing.

Schumacher and Petrov for me will drop, I'm also surprised at the lack of pace differential between the prime and option

Okay, so that is what was weird about that... green, yet outside top 10...
And I hope KK does something banzai in that last lap.
