[Comment From Ax Ax : ]

Is Ferrari's pace genuine? Or is just Monaco? ;) ED - Monaco is different that any other as it relies more on mechanical grip as it is a relatively very slow track. Ferrari struggle with their aerodynamics which isn't so important here

[Comment From Dave Dave : ]

Is Webber running higher fuel loads in his 1st 2 runs? ED - Webber didn't do any timed laps in the first session and usually Red Bull run heavy early in this session

Thursday May 26, 2011 3:43 Dave

3:43

Which is also why people expect Red Bull to "struggle"? ED - Possibly but Vettel topped the times this morning, Alonso was close though so expect a much closer qualifying
