James1978 · Post by **James1978** » 07 Jun 2011, 12:31

I'll have my first-ever go at this:

1. Hamilton (he usually bounces back from his worst races really well)
2. Button
3. Vettel
4. Alonso
5. Kobayashi
6. Heidfeld
7. Perez
8. Webber
9. Rosberg
10. Buemi

Pole: Hamilton
Fastest Lap: Alonso
First retirement: Schumacher
RotR: Petrov (he's overdue it if you ask me)
IIDOTR: Sauber for being very light on tyres
DBTMOTR: Webber

That OK?

Shizuka · Post by **Shizuka** » 07 Jun 2011, 12:57

2011 Canadian Grand Prix
1. Vettel
2. Hamilton (Finishing right behind Seb)
3. Kobayashi (Yes, I say he'll slap the podium this weekend)
4. Webber (Can't find a way past in the final laps)
5. Button (Botched strategy in qualifying results in a bad quali position and his first-corner front wing loss costs him dearly)
6. Alonso (Almost lapped...)
7. Heidfeld (AGAIN from a Q1 non-qualification...)
8. Massa (Ferrari can't cut it here, Renault is on par with them)
9. Petrov (One more lap and Petrov would have been 8th)
10. Buemi (Seems to be at home on this track)

Pole: Vettel
Fastest Lap: Hamilton
First Retirement: A Mercedes driver and a Force India driver. Let's say... Rosberg and di Resta.
ROTR: Mercedes (Not making it into Q3, Rosberg's race ends after one turn, Schumacher can't find a way past Buemi!)
IIDOTR: Kobayashi (From sixth he makes a decent start up to third and he keeps it there!)
DBTMOTR: Rosberg (Yes, I said it. Rosberg.)
Minor League Premiership: Perez (12th place, right behind Schumacher on new soft tyres)
Non-Qualifiers: None

No double points.
