Belgium GP – Pre-Qualifying
The three main chances for qualifying look to be Webber, Vettel and Hamilton. The Red Bulls are quick, Hamilton not as quick but has KERS so will be tough to split. As for the others, the Brawns can’t get heat into their tyres, Toyota are pacy, whilst Ferrari is there or thereabouts. BMW looked to be doing a bit of showboating at the end of prac 3.
Webber lost out in final practice as he required an engine change – the usual procedure is to run an old engine on Friday and then stick in a brand spanker Saturday morning – but his Renault engine had some sort of problem and so he needed a change – cutting his running down to just 3 laps. This had put a rather large dent in his chances, and so we’re probably better off to consider Vettel or Hamilton as the best chance for pole.
Not overly confident for anyone to stand out and stick their car on pole, but Vettel should have the better running and if doing so looks to go right on with it for the race. $50 on him for the Qualifying/Race double at $8.2 or you can take just Qualifying at around $4.2 on Betfair.
