Alonso on the front row, Mclarens on the third row.

Been hearing lots lately about Renault as a lost cause for 2008. So, Alonso really low on fuel so he starts well in his home GP? I hope it sets up an on-track pass by Hamilton, that will be fun to watch.

I think FA was on fumes, don't expect that tomorrow, but the first turn will be interesting to say the least. Kimi is known to prefer larger fuel loads, which makes his pole all the more amazing. FA and Kimi are both excellent starters. I believe Kimi has turned the corner of having the measure of Ferrari setup knowledge over Massa, helped no doubt by his ability to handle the loss of tc better. McL? I think they just missed the setup entirely. Everyone will have races like that. It's going to be fun.

One of Alonoso's complaints last season was that Hamilton was coasting by getting Alonso's setup to start with at each track.

starting 5-6th. Who knows, might come down to what fuel load they were running.

...but apparently the FIA hasn't said anything about it yet.

...and didn't they just test at the track last week? Perhaps they were able to develop a racing strategy based on their tests.
Everyone that tested there and didn't get the setup right should be driving a Taxi cab by now ;-)

And for Alonso I hope he'll get punched out again like he did verbally by Monty.......
