Trulli is so light on fuel. He was 3 seconds faster than Glock.
I expected Ferrari to do well on this type of circuit.

As for BMW, this does not seem like their kind of track.
McLaren better pray for rain.

you guys think Massa spun out cause of no traction control ? It seemed like he expected the tail to rebound but it just kept on going.....

Yes he is fast, but very very inconsistent.
He goes off the circuit often, many times last year and 1st/2nd races of this year. He is also very easily baited into mistakes.

Massa is so overrated. He had these same incidents last year, even with traction control.
