In all my time as an F1 fan I have never been disappointed by the Brazilian Grand Prix and today’s qualifying session was no different.

I will concede that the first two sessions seemed pretty dull (despite big name drop outs and difficult conditions). However, the last few seconds of qualifying three were more exciting than some of 2010’s two hour races!

 

Qualifying One

Rain from earlier in the day meant that the Brazilian circuit was far from dry but with a clear day predicted tomorrow all of the teams were on dry weather set ups.

The session started with a Brazilian buzz as the lights went green and the fans roared. Adding further to the excitement was the threat of rain. This meant that most of the drivers desperately rushed out on track to get a reasonably secure time in.

Sebastian Buemi set the pace with a 1:22:744, but it was clear early on that the Red Bulls and Fernando Alonso were the ones to beat in Q1.

Both Williams also looked fast in the early stages of Q1 and although the McLarens looked as if they would comfortably make it into the second session, it didn’t look as if they would provide much of a challenge.

Of course, very quickly the new teams found themselves in the drop out zone and it looked pretty certain that one of the Force Indias would be joining them.

It was interesting to watch Adrian Sutil and Vitantonio Liuzzi battle it out to survive, but ultimately Q1 was a pointless and predictable as any other opening session this year.

Sutil eventually lost out to his teammate by the way. With a five place penalty hanging over the German and an unsecured future in F1, it was clear to see the worry in the driver’s eyes when he came to be interviewed by the media.
