is it me , or has Michael addopted a new driving style this weekend . He's still quick , so it isnt doing him any harm .

Normally during the corner he balances the car on the throttle like they all do , but so far all weekend when ever ive watched him on the onboard channel , during mid corner he is on and off the throttle like a Formula Ford driver would be . He is in early to mid corner and he takes a bit stab at the throttle , then lifts , then another big stab again , then a lift then full throttle out of the corner . Ive never seen him drive like this before , normally he just holds the throttle more steady which balances the car through the corner .

Everyone is right next to their team-mate except for Bernoldi and Coulthard...

[StuiE]

BARS have seemed to get A LITTLE better, Frentzen has got the poorest car up there and the Macs are just slow

[DNQ]

What a suprise. Ferrari 1-2.
Williams 3-4
Sauber 6-7
BAR 9-10
Toyota 11-12
Renault 15-16
Jordan 17-18
Jaguar 18-19
Minardi 21-22

Excitement galore.

I thought MS looked good today, a lot better than yesterday. The William has fallen back a bit.

DC's McLaren looked awful. It was like he was driving on ice compared to the others.

Still no one can do that last corner well!

The amount of kerb they take in the first corner is getting ridiculous now!

It will be extremely interesting to compare these positions with quals later on today.

Other than the Williams at the front and Jordan at the back,all the Michelin runners are grouped toward the bottom of the timesheets.

Analysis? Its a Bridgestone track-the Williams are that much better than everyone but Ferrari, (maybe even better) and the Jordan really is a dog.

I hope HHF can hang onto 5th for Quals. I will also admit that Massa's pace compared to Heidfeld continues to surprise me.
