Post-Quli..

As i said; anything can happen in F1... Especially in Monaco ay? Well I definitely wasn't expecting any of that. After setting a blistering lap in Q2 it looked like Lewis was the man to beat with Jenson close behind. It looked like a dream day for McLaren. However it wasn't to be. After Q1 things started to go down hill for Ferrari's golden boy. With Red Bull and McLaren showing their true pace pole looked to be out of reach for Fernando. It all kicked off in Q3 though, the ten big boys went out in search of the most important pole in F1. It was Jenson who set the early pace but it was not long before Vettel showed why when it comes to qualifying he is renowned for one lap pace. Once he put the super soft tyres on, it was Seb on provisional pole. Alonso pace was fading away. It seemed to be that the only man that could beat Seb was Lewis. He set out with only one thing on his mind; being the closest to the starting lights tomorrow, look but never stair. His first flying lap was impeded when a boringly slow Felipe Massa just wouldn't get out the way, this left him 6 tenths down in the first sector. Then the thousands of spectators at the track and million watching anxiously on TV heart's sank. Sergio Perez ran wide out of the tunnel hitting the armco in the same place Nico Rosberg hit it earlier today in P3. Perez, however wasn't as lucky. After losing all control of his Sauber, Perez spun through 180 degrees and slamed into the barriers, thankfully they did their job and Sergio is conscious and talking. I think we have F1's amazing safety regulations to thank for that. I hope Sergio is okay but his chances of competing in tomorrow's Grand Prix are slim, and stupid... This left the session red flagged with 2:26 on the clock, only enough time for one flying lap. The man who need it most; Lewis Hamilton, who had yet to set a tim in Q3. Half an hour later Charlie Whiting, F1's race director announced that the rest of the session would be completed. This is when things went from bad to worse for the plucky, ambitious Britt. Lewis sat at the lights for over two minutes waiting for the session to restart. All the time he sat there his tyres were cooling down and his engine heating up. Once the session was under way once again the size of his problems started to show. In the first sector Lewis was 3 tenths down on Seb, sliding all over the place it was clear that there was no temperature in his tyres. By the end of the lap he was over a second down on Vettel and no one got the intense fight for pole position that we were all hoping for. Lewis starts tomorrow from 7th on the grid with a huge amount of ground to make up if he is to be within chance of a podium place, around the streets of Monte Carlo it will be a tall order even if he gets a perfect gat away followed by a perfect race. 80% of the races won at Monaco have been one from the top 3 slots from the grid so a wins pretty much out the picture for Lewis, the question is what will happen infront...
