@F1PitRadio Kimi to box to “do a race start in the box” and straight back out
@F1PitRadio Kimi performed that race launch practice from the box at 13,200 rpm
@SkyF1Insider So @Lotus_F1Team are doing a funky little collaboration with daft punk! Anyone notice the difference on the cars?! #GetLucky

Other News:
This is the shape of things to come on Sunday.
My prediction Hamilton P1, then Alonso, Vettel, Massa, Rosberg, Webber, Raikkonen.
The gap will inevitably grow again Vettel-Raikkonen.
No podium for Lotus Sunday
