Webbers not running light either

For the 2009 season, the FIA are making public the weights of all cars ahead of the race start to help give an idea of relative fuel loads. The cars that made Q3 are weighed after qualifying, while the weights of the remaining cars must be declared by their teams shortly after the session.

Below is the provisional grid for the German Grand Prix with each car's weight. Note - Toyota’s Timo Glock has dropped from 19th to 20th after being penalised for blocking Renault’s Fernando Alonso during qualifying.

1. Mark Webber, Red Bull, 661kg. - roughly lap 20

2. Rubens Barrichello, Brawn GP, 647 - lap 14

3. Jenson Button, Brawn GP, 644 - lap 15

4. Sebastian Vettel, Red Bull, 661 - lap 20

5. Lewis Hamilton, McLaren, 654.5 - lap 17/18

6. Heikki Kovalainen, McLaren, 664.0 - lap 21

7. Adrian Sutil, Force India, 678.5 - lap 28

8. Felipe Massa, Ferrari, 673.5 - lap 26

9. Kimi Raikkonen, Ferrari, 674 - lap 26/27

10. Nelson Piquet, Renault, 676

11. Nick Heidfeld, BMW Sauber, 681

12. Fernando Alonso, Renault, 668.2

13. Kazuki Nakajima, Williams, 683.6

14. Jarno Trulli, Toyota, 683.7

15. Nico Rosberg, Williams, 689.6

16. Robert Kubica, BMW Sauber, 673.5

17. Sebastien Buemi, Toro Rosso, 674.5

18. Giancarlo Fisichella, Force India, 662.5

19. Sebastien Bourdais, Toro Rosso, 689.5

20. Timo Glock, Toyota, 662.3

Also I've added a rough estimate of when they should be pitting for fuel provided driver and car = 605kg and including formation lap etc as the nurburgring should be about 2.4/2.5 kg of fuel per lap, so if all goes well tomorrow and pending strategies should be

webber

vettel

and I'll have to say sutil if he goes incident free followed by the brawns but ofcourse being a Ferrari supporter I'd like them to be able to build enough of a lead over the brawns and come in to the top 5 if they get their strategies right!

If Webz gets up tomoz i am going to hit the town and shag any Indian bird that will have me and call all our offspring Webz!!!!!! :)

Sounds better than this offer...

A few simple words. FFS get it off the line Mark. I WILL run down the main roa of Hyderabad naked if he gets up for his first win...come on Webz!

That would do more damage to Aust/Indian relationship than any thugs could do here.

Cant i do both, i mean the shagging bit wont take more then a few seconds :D

And amazing effort from Sutil. He really seems to shine in the variable conditions, based on his fuel load he could very well of been even higher. He has a flexible race strategy from where he is on the grid and could be in for a great result

I so hope Webz gets up this weekend, but at the same time will be massively pissed off i am not there, especially when you think that a friends workmate has my ticket to ther Ford Kurve grandstand :)

Awesome. What date is it? I am in and out of Singapore and have free accom there. What are the tickets worth? Just stay away from the Four Floors and you will have a great trip :thumbsup:

I was meant to be in Germany for this weekend, but again my leave was d1cked by project delays. So flogged off the GBP415 ticket to my mate from the UK who was going to meet me there...but have other plans now :3some: But still need to ensure that i do my 3 GPs in 2009 promise. Asian GPs are far cheaper then European GPs

Cheers roy, i am almost counting down the days ;) It starts about september 25 or 26, im there for 5 or 6 days. The ticket was around 1100-1300 AUD, i try to forget these things but i can check if you really care. I made sure i got a seat about half way up the grandsand so i can see over the fence. Its actually at the end of the turn one grandstand almost at the start of the second one, they pretty much touch each other. From there i have a good view of the first 3 turns, a massive screen and can see the drivers come out of pit lane at the end of the straight just before turn 1.

Anyway it is fkn awesome to see webber finally get pole, fingers crossed he can get his first win tonight :)

Geezus, the Malaysian GP tickets were only $600 or so and that was for the main stand with awesome view of a bunch of corners. So much for Asian GPs beng cheaper :3some: Hopefully this project will be over by September and i will be back in the office in Singapore...but not likely :thumbsup:

    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long time  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like
