I love the Canadian Grand Prix. Canada has one of the best race circuits in the world and some of the best fans who never fail to fill the grandstands.

However, it’s hard to explain how I felt about the qualifying for the 2011 Grand Prix in Montreal.

Yes, Sebastian Vettel is pole again, but he was pushed to the very last corner by a resurgent Ferrari. In that respect, the qualifying today was great, and it was a very welcome change to see all of the cars out on track for the whole final session.

It has to be said, though, that Montreal continued a worrying trend in F1 qualifying for 2011, it was closer than it has been, but I couldn’t help but feel a sense of inevitability in every single session.

Qualifying 1:

Jerome D’Ambrosio set the first time of the session with a 1:25:366.

With the threat of rain looming over the teams, it was great to see D’Ambrosio quickly joined on the track by every other driver eager to get a time in.

From an early stage, it became clear that today’s fight would be between the Ferrari team that had done very well in all of the practice sessions and the Red Bull team who had been expected not to perform as well in Canada.

McLaren and, to an extent, Mercedes had promised a lot, but at this stage, weren’t looking great for a Top 4 spot.

There are rumours floating around the paddock that Jamie Alguersuari will be replaced by Daniel Ricciardo. I think Torro Rosso should be looking at Sebastien Buemi when considering a driver change, but I think Alguersuari’s stress was evident by his erratic driving in Q1.

It was relatively close towards the end of the first session, but in the end, the expected drivers bowed out and they were joined by an unhappy Alguersuari.

Q1 Top 3:

Fernando Alonso, Sebastian Vettel, Felipe Massa

Out:

Jamie Alguersuar...
