Been watching practice - drivers and teams rather mixed up, I thought - and waiting for qualifying http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/cool1.gif

I dunno, other than Senna being so high, they're quite the usual suspects on the top10 etc, Mercedes doing bad but that was already known yesterday when Schumacher said "Rain is our best chance"

Oooh Red Bull accused of cheating.

This is getting silly, just ban them. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...s/biggrin1.gif

Its good Kimi is back so we get CB doing these threads http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ies/laugh1.gif

Red Bull without tricks = DERP.

Again? I was doing grocery shopping, they did switch back to their old engine maps since the new ones got banned, right?

Apparently, during the Canadian GP, they had a switch which changed the ride height. Not accessible by the driver, but in theory could run one height for qualifying, one for race, without running into parc ferme.

Whoa, Senna wasn't fast in practice for nothing, dropped Webber from Q3!

Webber out http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...s/biggrin1.gif

A bit of a shake up, good drive from Massa.
Now for Q3...

FIA Representive putting seal-stickers on the holes which Red Bull was claimed to use to change ride height (thanks to tenttu_ @ MuroBBS)

Looking more damning. Shame, Horner is the only one at RB I like and he's either a liar, or doesn't know what's going on in his team http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo.../rolleyes1.gif

Oo, this is interesting
Marc Gené: In Canada they were acting like they were whipping down the car on the grid and when the marshal got suspicious and checked the rag there was a small tool they were hiding in it that fit in two holes next to the suspension.

--- Post Update ---

Didn't catch who, but someone is investigated for blocking Maldonado apparently?

Knowing your history regarding Hamilton, I think this is bait http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...es/tongue1.gif

Maybe Vettel going off distracted Hamilton and he didn't notice Maldonado?

Nah, there's no way he impeded there.

Actually I honestly didn't hear it, I was grabbing food and only heard " for blocking maldonado", no investigations from it apparently, though

Ah, they showed the stickers on the TV feed, but didn't make any mention of what they were there for - I just thought it was some sort of overzealous action by a sticker happy FIA official http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ies/laugh1.gif

Hamilton said himself on the radio he thought he might have blocked Maldonado (as he probably saw him quite late)... But looking at the replays there wasn't any sign of blocking. Neither did anyone complain so far.
