[40427]

I am hoping Michael Schumacher can hold in the top 6 through quali 3, and then it rains a bit on Sunday.

He is the rain meister and a win would set to rest his ouster from Ferrari so ungraciously orchestrated by the management there. Thank you Luca

I also want Vettel to win the championship with Alonzo breathing down his neck at every turn until the last corner of the last lap.

The "Tooner" should finish somewhere in the points , but needs a bit*ch slap for the way he behaved leaving McLaren after all they put in to him and all they flat out sucked up to give him his first and probably only title.

The saddest thing of all is the loss of HRT, they put so much heart in to the sport only to fail for the lack of a few million dollars

[mika]

It would be great sport to see Schumi and Vettel duke it out in the rain.

Hamilton and McLaren have both done each other wrong. Hamilton's punishment will be sitting in a Mercedes GP car by Brawn. McLaren's punishment will be dished out by Button.

I have to admit to being a bit of tifosi and hope Alonso has a strong Brazilian GP and finishes behind Vettel and Massa.

Paraphrasing Miracle Max; HRT is not dead just mostly dead. I hope the off season will bring some white knight to HRT's rescue.

Hamilton leads a Qualifying McLaren 1 ÔÇô 2 for the 2012 Brazilian GP . The sun did make an appearance during Q2 of a green flag qualifying for the Brazilian GP.

Q1 was the usual mish mash of cars and times. The back of the pack crowd took to the track early; laying down some rubber and warming the track for the rest of the field. The big names did not come out until the half way point was passed and quickly set the field. As the flag was falling on the session Grosjean ran into the back of an HRT and ended his day. Hamilton took P1, Vettel was in P5 and Alonso in P10.

Q1 Eliminations: [P18-24] Grojean, Petrov, Kovalainen, Glock, Pic, Karthkeyan, De la Rosa

Q2 saw Alonso out quickly trying to find some speed. He topped the field with 1'14.631 for much of the session. However, the McLarens and Red Bulls had not taken the field yet. Rosberg had the pace for the Mercedes team leaving Schumacher to struggle. He never did find the right set up or track position to advance and ended the session in P14. When the McLarens and Red Bulls took the track the field quickly shuffled. As the Session ended the big question mark was could Ferrari be bumped from the final session? At the 2 minute mark Alonso was in P8 and falling while Massa was dithering away just ahead of Shumacher. As the Q2 flag fell and final rounds were made the boys in the red cars were able to slip through to Q3 in P9 and 10.

Q2 Eliminations: [P11-17] Di Resta, Senna, Perez, Schumacher, Kobayashi, Ricciardo, Vergne

Rosberg set the first time for the final session and headed to the field until Hamilton took to the track around the half way mark. Hamilton set a 1'12:860 to take the top of the chart. In a few seconds his teammate Button would break into the 12's but slower than Hamiltons time. The session benchmark was set and who would beat it, if anyone was the only question.

Webber was able to break into the 12s fairly quickly. In all three sessions he seemed to have the quciker Red Bull car and was far more comfortable with the track. Vettel was another story. While he had shown bursts of qualifying speed in the first two sessions Q3 was shapping up to be a disaster for him. When the teams headed into the pits before the final flyers I believe he was listed in P10 after going wide in turn four of what should have been his best and penultimate hot lap. When the timing chart recycled before the final runs it listed Alonso in P5 and Vettel in P6.

The cars hit the track for their final hot laps making the circuit of the Sao Paulo venue just before the flag fell to stop the qualifying countdown clock. What remained is the lightspeed cliff hanger. Who would be the fastest back to home and take the pole? Webber was the first across the line and held the provisional pole long enough for the note to be written then Hamilton took the pole away with a 1'12:458 and Button slipped in just ahead of Webber's time. Vettel posted a 1'12:760 taking P4. Massa posted the last time in the 12s with a 1'12.987 for P5. Alonso was only able to turn a 1'13:489 for another P8.

Q3 Results: [P1-10] Hamilton, Button, Webber, Vettel, Massa, Maldonado, Hulkenburg, Alonso, Raikkonen, Rosberg.

The McLaren's clearly have the pace on a dry track. However, rain continues to be a big question mark for Sunday and the race. How the race to turn three is faught, who does or doesn't crash and who leads at that point will have a major impact on race strategy and the Driver Championship outcome.

Red Bull has already won the Constructior title. In the past they have not had team orders and it would seem unlikely for them to start now. If Vettel is to receive help from his teammate he will have to defeat him first.

What happens behind the P1,2 McLarens and P3,4 Red Bulls between now and the race start will keep reporters and pundits clicking away at their keyboards.

Will Massa suffer gearbox problems once again? If he does he would drop to P10 and more importantly Alonso would move up a spot. This is Brazil. Would Scuderia Ferrari management make it to the airport alive if they asked their Brazilian #2 to take one for the team once again?

The Stewards will have a hand in the drama too. Maldenado is currently in P6. During Q2 he failed to stop on the weight bridge. Replays clearly showed him failing to stop for the red weigh bridge red lights. The Stewards have a great deal of latitude in if and how they assess a penalty from no harm no faul to disqualifying his qualifying times moving him to the back of the grid. The latter would move Alonso up a grid spot.

This evening I will post an update with provisional results, press conference transcripts and more. The stage for the Brazilain GP is not officially finalized and set until four hours before the scheduled race start.

Stewards Decisions:

No action would be taken in the Grosjean / De la Rosa incident. This was considered a racing incident due to the nature of the track. Warnings were issued to all drivers.

Maldenado and Williams were not as lucky. A penalty of a Reprimand is imposed. This is the third Reprimand of this season, which will result in a
ten grid place penalty (as per Article 18.2 of the FIA Formula One Sporting Regulations).

Alonso moves up one space. No news about how Massa's gearbox is doing.

FWIW

On first blush the 2012 Formula 1 Brazilian Grand Prix race and Sebastian Vettel becoming the youngest triple Drive Champion would seem the most important stories of the day. They are indeed big stories. They will dominate bench racing discussions for much of the coming months. Yet, for my money and for as big a F1 fan as I may be, the most important stories in today's thread are in the SBK and MotoGP headings. For now I will ponder F1 and no doubt pontificate at a later date. That story is history and I have time. The SBK/MotoGP stories are the future of our favorite forms of racing around here.

Conclusion of Day Three
As the sun set over the picturesque mountains surrounding the Peuma Hue Estancia, the sound of BMW GS engines could be heard, as late arrivals made their way down the three kilometre track to the awe-inspiring ranch set in the surroundings of the Nahuel Huapi National Park. .. ..More



Munich / Peuma Hue, Rio Negro Province, Argentina. Day three of the BMW Motorrad GS Trophy lived up to its title ÔÇô the marathon stage ÔÇô with teams finishing as late as 8.30 this evening, having set off at 7.15am. The 450km mostly off-road course proved gruelling, as were the three special tests. But when the dust settled, just about at dusk on the shore of Lake Nahuel Huapi, it was Team Germany which had triumphed, taking over the lead from yesterdayÔÇÖs top team, France. ..More



The future promises even greater agility: The BMW i3 Concept Coupe.
