Micheal Schumacher suffered a major blow to his final attempt at a World Championship as his Ferrari had more problems(what kind is still not certian). The problems forced the Seven time World Champ to retire to the pits right at the start of Q3. Michael had been in the top two in Q1 and Q2 with Massa. The Brazilian took the opportunity to flawlessly seal pole and looks the clear favourite to take 3rd in the World Championship.

Kimi and Trulli will seperate Massa from Alonso who just requires 1 point to be World Champion. The Spaniard was the fastest of the rest in the first two sessions begging the question if the Renault team have banked on a heavier fule load to help him fight the Ferraris in the race. Kimi was brilliant to lap without a mistake. He will be beside his future teammate on the front row. Trulli’s lap was one of surprise but in the conditions that clearly helped Bridgestone runners its a little surprise to see Toyota fighting on top.

The track temp started at 38deg and dropped to about 30deg by the end of the session. The higher it gets the better for the Bridgestone runners. If it gets between 15-25deg the advantage should swing towards the Michelin runners.

What is left to be seen is where Michael starts. If there is an engine change then he will start 20th and otherwise 10th. Can Michael pull out the impossible and win from the back of the grid or will Massa win his home race or will Kimi or Alonso win one for their team before they leave. All that will be answered tommorow.
