The Italian Grand Prix - Qualifying

:00:21. > :01:24.The twins! -- Ferrari wins! Nigel not so glamorous now for this

:01:24. > :01:25.The twins! -- Ferrari wins! Nigel Mansell has won the Italian Grand

:01:25. > :01:54.Prix. Michael Schumacher crosses the line

:01:54. > :01:58.to win the Italian Grand Prix. His fifth a tree at Monza. -- 50

:01:58. > :02:44.victory. A live with passion, a special

:02:44. > :02:49.place, a fabulous track. The cathedral of speed welcomes you to

:02:49. > :02:54.the Italian Grand Prix on this perfect qualifying day.

:02:54. > :03:00.Traditionally, this has been a happy ground for Ferrari. 18 wins and pole

:03:00. > :03:05.positions, but no victories in 2010. Their force, their fans, are here in

:03:05. > :03:11.droves. Their love for the horse borders on religion. Monza is

:03:11. > :03:32.pulsate in with expectation. -- pulsate in.

:03:32. > :03:40.So, it is the final opportunity of a European victory this season. There

:03:40. > :03:46.are just eight races to go now until the championship concludes in

:03:46. > :03:53.Brazil. So, plenty to look forward to. The question, of course, is in

:03:53. > :04:04.any body part the red Bull bubble? Last time it was Vettel.

:04:04. > :04:10.I weigh Rego and Hamilton makes a good getaway. Vettel slots in

:04:10. > :04:21.behind. Button is going around the outside. Vettel has got past Button.

:04:21. > :04:28.He is Alonso. He moves to the outside.

:04:28. > :04:40.Fernando Alonso started in ninth. He is fourth already. The DRS is in

:04:40. > :04:48.opposition -- operation. A surprising amount of brake dust from

:04:48. > :04:59.Kimi Raikkonen's car. Nothing Romain Grosjean can do. A drive-through

:04:59. > :05:08.penalty for Sergio Perez. That was an important pass. Lewis Hamilton,

:05:08. > :05:13.tucked into the slipstream. Alonso is determined on the brakes. He

:05:13. > :05:15.almost lost control! That was all very tight. Brilliant, absolutely

:05:15. > :05:30.brilliant. Here we go, this is the move. He

:05:30. > :05:36.couldn't stop the move at all. It is a first retirement since his return

:05:36. > :05:47.to Formula One for Kimi Raikkonen. He won't give up. Paul di Resta pays

:05:47. > :05:49.the biggest prize. Vettel wins in Belgium. He takes his second win

:05:49. > :06:01.here. Oh, what a shot! Seems a long time

:06:01. > :06:08.since you have experienced a bit of champagne like that. It really

:06:08. > :06:12.stings in your eyes. Eddie Jordan, you would know, you have had plenty

:06:12. > :06:17.of success. Listen, two weeks ago, you announced to the world that

:06:17. > :06:21.Daniel Ricciardo was moving to Red Bull and that he had been signed. So

:06:21. > :06:29.they obviously listened to you and they announced it on Monday. Was it

:06:29. > :06:32.the right decision? Absolutely. They have put a youth policy in. They

:06:32. > :06:39.the right decision? Absolutely. They could have gone with Raikkonen. I

:06:39. > :06:43.think it is the right decision to have Ricciardo in this team. He is

:06:43. > :06:45.perfect for them. Let's have a look at how the

:06:45. > :06:59.championship looks as we go Raikkonen is down to fourth.

:06:59. > :07:03.Hamilton is hoping to reduce it 12.05 -- to reduce his 12 points

:07:03. > :07:16.avoid. Red Bull still have 300 points

:07:16. > :07:22.available. So, here we are in Monza. Just as

:07:22. > :07:27.excited to be here as we were in Belgium. Let's wander down to the

:07:27. > :07:34.pit lane. Monza ticks all the boxes for drivers and fans. It is the most

:07:34. > :07:42.historic Grand Prix. You have got the old bank here. You

:07:42. > :07:47.can see it from the start. The history is part of it. You have got

:07:47. > :07:54.grandmothers, great-grandmothers, children. It covers everything in

:07:54. > :07:58.terms of the fan base. The passion for motorsport and Ferrari, it is

:07:58. > :08:05.something else. We rival it in Silverstone.

:08:05. > :08:13.It is a different kind of rivalry. Silverstone, they are hard-core

:08:13. > :08:17.fans, but not as passionate. You don't have that here. You are either

:08:17. > :08:22.a Ferrari fan or you are not really at the races. They don't care about

:08:22. > :08:27.anybody else. I might take you up on that. Italy

:08:27. > :08:29.is hoping for a Ferrari win, but a small section of the country is

:08:29. > :08:31.looking for another driver in small section of the country is

:08:31. > :08:55.another area. I have come to just outside Naples

:08:55. > :08:58.to find the only village that will not be supporting Ferrari. But there

:08:58. > :09:05.is a good reason for that. Paolo di Resta. Paul di Resta?

:09:05. > :09:31.Si. Walking around the streets, do you

:09:31. > :09:34.feel more Scottish or Italian? It is always a good mix. Growing up in an

:09:34. > :09:40.Italian family, I have had both aspects. We are traditional

:09:40. > :09:45.Italian, but the Scottish weather is different. To come and see the

:09:46. > :09:53.family and how they live, it is such a simple but happy life. It is

:09:53. > :09:57.great. So amazing to see such an extended

:09:57. > :10:03.family. The children are getting involved and the older people as

:10:03. > :10:07.well. It must make you proud. It is such a small place. Everybody knows

:10:07. > :10:10.each other. When you drive up the village, all of the old women are

:10:10. > :10:13.sitting on the balconies. It is nice to come out and see the

:10:13. > :10:42.day and to enjoy it. So, Paul, this was the family Farm.

:10:42. > :10:48.100 years ago, this is where it started. They sustained their life

:10:48. > :10:55.here. To this day, they keep the plantation going. There is a lot of

:10:55. > :11:05.fruit. There is. Lemons, Kiwis, figs. Do the camera crew want some?

:11:05. > :11:11.That is lovely. Let's talk about your season. How

:11:11. > :11:19.would you sum it up so far? It is positive. We have been in the top

:11:19. > :11:23.ten until the last race. We are above where we were last

:11:23. > :11:33.year. We hear you are very vocal on the

:11:33. > :11:38.radio, blaming the team. I apologise. That was a mess.

:11:38. > :11:43.I have got a strong relationship with the team. None of it should be

:11:43. > :11:47.taken as criticism. I don't want to come across like that. I need to go

:11:48. > :11:53.back and analyse what has gone on because it is not acceptable.

:11:53. > :12:02.I can't confirm and them enough with words. To repay them, it is a

:12:02. > :12:08.podium, a win. When you speak to your family, it is

:12:08. > :12:16.fantastic. They are obviously up -- passionate Ferrari fans. I Ferrari.

:12:17. > :12:19.Paul is very good! How much would you like to be a

:12:19. > :12:25.Paul is very good! Ferrari driver, as an Italian? It

:12:25. > :12:29.would be a dream. When I was watching TV back in the day, it was

:12:29. > :12:39.the generation of Michael Schumacher's domination in Ferrari.

:12:39. > :12:43.That was always a dream, to be in that position. The car was mighty.

:12:43. > :13:05.It would mean so much to me. Ideal management speaking to Ferrari

:13:05. > :13:13.for next year? -- are your management. There is no confirmation

:13:13. > :13:17.yet. I would love to be good enough to have the reputation to be given

:13:17. > :13:19.the chance. Let's go and have a good time with

:13:19. > :13:35.your family. I got four children, seven

:13:35. > :13:49.grandchildren, a superstar. What more do you want? There is something

:13:49. > :13:55.special about deadly? He is very lucky, family everywhere, and he can

:13:55. > :14:02.special about deadly? He is very always nip off to Italy for the

:14:02. > :14:06.weekend. -- Italy. He has done absolutely enough. You heard what he

:14:06. > :14:11.said, he is hankering about coming to Ferrari but the last couple of

:14:11. > :14:14.races have not helped him and his management, they need a strong

:14:14. > :14:17.performance at the time of management, they need a strong

:14:17. > :14:23.negotiating and that has not worked out. We don't know what will happen

:14:23. > :14:28.this weekend. So far, if you have been watching, you will have seen

:14:28. > :14:35.this last session. This is not what he wanted? In Parabolica, he thought

:14:35. > :14:40.there was some failure but I have not heard anything to confirm that.

:14:40. > :14:45.It does come as a surprise, over 200 mph, you always think it is

:14:45. > :14:52.something else. I think it was just a driver error. That is such a

:14:52. > :15:00.high-speed kink. Hopefully it will be fixed in time. Let's go back to

:15:00. > :15:05.Tom Clarkson outside Force India. I can confirm he will be odd. They are

:15:05. > :15:13.just putting the floor back onto the car but it has been expensive. Blood

:15:13. > :15:19.from a financial point of view, he did about £150,000 worth of damage

:15:19. > :15:24.with that brake disk failure and that and sent straight into the

:15:24. > :15:28.Parabolica. And also, that cost in track time but at least he will be

:15:28. > :15:36.there at the start of Q1. That is track time but at least he will be

:15:36. > :15:41.good news. All of his fans will be pleased he can get out because if

:15:41. > :15:47.you cannot, you are really stuck? I am concerned about that Rick

:15:47. > :15:51.failure, that puts him in no man's land because you are just a

:15:51. > :15:54.passenger. I would like to know why? Was at the right temperature?

:15:54. > :16:01.Hopefully for all of his fans, we can expect a very strong qualifying.

:16:01. > :16:06.Interesting thermal imaging shots? We shall see more of that. We talked

:16:06. > :16:15.about Daniel Ricciardo, he has been fully signed for Red Bull - why not

:16:15. > :16:20.Kimi Raikkonen? A couple of reasons and I am sure it was very difficult

:16:21. > :16:25.for them. They wanted continuity of that young driver team, and what is

:16:25. > :16:30.the point in having Toro Rosso if they will not use you? They are a

:16:30. > :16:34.very strong partnership and they are a very good team this year and

:16:34. > :16:39.either could have done that job. One Australian replacing another fifth

:16:39. > :16:44.at marketing ploy and he is there on talent. Kimi Raikkonen, was he going

:16:44. > :16:51.to do all of those other things? Would he upset the situation? This

:16:51. > :16:56.was probably the right decision. This is a very big job, even though

:16:56. > :16:58.Toro Rosso are a great team and this is the best team in the paddock and

:16:58. > :17:02.he has made that jump into the is the best team in the paddock and

:17:02. > :17:09.Championship winning team. You did a similar thing with Williams. Is that

:17:09. > :17:15.forgot? Formula one is difficult, motor racing is difficult. It is a

:17:15. > :17:19.question of taking that increase of the demands on his time and the

:17:19. > :17:23.increased pressure and all of the indications are that he is well

:17:23. > :17:31.prepared. 50 weekends, including Friday practice and he has all of

:17:31. > :17:34.those credentials. Goodspeed and I expect him to be able to take this

:17:34. > :17:39.chance and be a wonder in the future. Can he be a world champion?

:17:39. > :17:44.He will have to beat Sebastian and at the moment, he is the cream of

:17:44. > :17:51.the crop. Did you just believe you could do that? Self belief is King?

:17:51. > :17:55.Of course, it comes as a great surprise when you crash or your

:17:55. > :17:59.team-mate is faster but with the passing of time, some things become

:17:59. > :18:04.familiar. He will have no doubt whatsoever, he knows that team and

:18:04. > :18:08.he has lived in Milton Keynes and he is part of that system. If there is

:18:08. > :18:12.any perfect way to make that step up, this is the perfect opportunity.

:18:12. > :18:35.Let's hear from the man himself. Making his move on Sergio Perez! He

:18:35. > :18:43.gets past Grosjean! Ricciardo, perfect seventh place. She is a

:18:43. > :18:50.beauty at the moment, all right. It is nice. I'm very pleased to have

:18:50. > :18:54.that news under contract for next year so it is good. It takes some

:18:54. > :19:00.weight off my shoulders. How long has this been going on from first

:19:00. > :19:04.being talked about to finding out? Since Mark announced his retirement

:19:04. > :19:08.after the season, it was pretty much Silverstone weekend and the talks

:19:08. > :19:14.started and that is when we really find out, that we were the serious

:19:14. > :19:18.candidates. That was the turning point, from Silverstone onwards. We

:19:18. > :19:25.scored some points as well, which helped. That seemed to put me in the

:19:25. > :19:32.hot seat. This is a next step, I have a lot of work to do. One step

:19:32. > :19:38.closer to what I want. We are joined by Christian Horner. You must be

:19:38. > :19:41.relieved this is in the open? We just wanted to take our time to make

:19:41. > :19:46.the right decision and I believe that he is the right decision and he

:19:46. > :19:52.will have a big future. There will be a lot of people saying, John

:19:52. > :19:59.Arlotte Fern is one point ahead, -- Jean-Eric Vergne. You have to look

:19:59. > :20:07.at the circumstances, you can rent at their disposal and we have a lot

:20:07. > :20:11.of information on Daniel through driving on this miniature and at

:20:11. > :20:13.Silverstone one month ago, we looked at him and the way that he acquitted

:20:13. > :20:18.Silverstone one month ago, we looked himself was very impressive.

:20:18. > :20:23.Christian, he said he has no trophies yet. Is that a concern? His

:20:24. > :20:29.performance is far less than his qualifying performance at the

:20:29. > :20:32.moment? Again, he has not been in a car that he can achieve trophies

:20:33. > :20:37.with and he has done a good job with the equipment he has had and you can

:20:37. > :20:43.see that his raw speed is there and there is no substitute, he is a very

:20:43. > :20:48.quick racing driver. Winning in Formula three and other categories,

:20:48. > :20:54.standout candidate all the way through. It was the logical choice.

:20:54. > :20:59.These decisions are not just made on gut instinct or not, there is more

:20:59. > :21:05.analysis. Can you give the people at home some understanding of what your

:21:05. > :21:11.assimilation people would have done? We have analysed everything from his

:21:11. > :21:15.shoe size to every lap he has ever done. But you have to go with

:21:15. > :21:19.instinct. The safer option would be to take some experienced hand but

:21:19. > :21:24.you have to give youth a chance and he is an exciting young talent,

:21:24. > :21:30.quick and just how good, we don't know. Fast and talented and I

:21:30. > :21:33.believe he can be a winner. It is incredibly difficult to go up

:21:33. > :21:38.against Sebastian. Dream ticket in terms of PR! Everybody loves them.

:21:38. > :21:44.Is that part of the Australian great? He is like a better looking

:21:44. > :21:51.version of you, Eddie! We don't need to go down that route! He is a

:21:51. > :21:56.wonderful candidate. He always has a very big smile on his face and he

:21:56. > :21:59.enjoys being a driver, he has passion and desire and that is so

:21:59. > :22:04.important and will be great for the team great for Daniel. He will be a

:22:04. > :22:06.big star in the future. All the best, thanks for your time. Here is

:22:06. > :22:14.Thomas all the rest of today's news. Confirmation that Daniel Ricciardo

:22:14. > :22:18.will race for red or next season, Confirmation that Daniel Ricciardo

:22:18. > :22:24.leaving Kimi Raikkonen calling the shots in the driver market. Will the

:22:24. > :22:33.2007 world champion stay at Lotus for a third year or will he return

:22:33. > :22:36.to Ferrari in place of Felipe Massa? There are already for British

:22:36. > :22:40.drivers on the grid and there could be another coming, James Colorado

:22:40. > :22:46.has been confirmed as the third driver for Force India. And he has

:22:46. > :22:50.set the 17th fastest time yesterday. He is confident of doing a very good

:22:50. > :22:59.job going forward. I can only take this step-by-step and I have another

:22:59. > :23:02.GP to race to win. It is tougher for those younger drivers coming

:23:02. > :23:12.through. Very political and money oriented. But we shall see. Another

:23:12. > :23:23.youngster knocking on the door is 18-year-old surgery, he signed a

:23:23. > :23:33.deal with Sauber. But his backers must boost the winning coppers of

:23:33. > :23:46.his Swiss team. We have a 2011 car and they have a lot of mental

:23:46. > :23:52.preparation. -- Lewis Hamilton sees this as a pivotal moment. He is 58

:23:52. > :23:59.points behind Sebastian Vettel but knows exactly what he needs to do to

:23:59. > :24:04.reduce that gap. This is what we need to give us another boost. We

:24:04. > :24:08.need to close that gap. Finally, a speculative 21 race calendar for

:24:08. > :24:13.body for Dean has been given to the teams. It includes three new races

:24:13. > :24:21.in Austria, Marussia and Mexico and a return to Mexico City, last used

:24:21. > :24:26.in 1982, which would be music to the years of Sergio Perez. -- years.

:24:26. > :24:34.in 1982, which would be music to the Definitely, it become a very popular

:24:34. > :24:44.grand prix. Can it be finished in time? I definitely think. Those are

:24:44. > :24:49.those about next year, not even provisional actually. 21 races. Will

:24:49. > :24:56.that happen? Will you ever be at home? ! I don't think so. Not just

:24:56. > :25:01.like 21 football matches, this is global and it has a lot of

:25:01. > :25:06.travelling to it. Would you like to see Mexico happening? We went there

:25:06. > :25:11.last year and I agree, the track needs a lick of paint but the actual

:25:11. > :25:13.run-off around it, I don't think needs a lick of paint but the actual

:25:14. > :25:19.they will have to do much to make that worthy. This is the calendar we

:25:19. > :25:25.are talking about, 21 races. Austria, Marussia and Mexico, and

:25:25. > :25:27.leaving Austria will happen. Korea, we not quite sure about that a lot

:25:27. > :25:32.or Marussia or Mexico. Perhaps by we not quite sure about that a lot

:25:32. > :25:37.Singapore we will have more of an idea. Earlier, you mentioned Kimi

:25:37. > :25:40.Singapore we will have more of an Raikkonen and we were talking about

:25:40. > :25:47.him and Red Bull and it is nice Ferrari. Without happen? It has a

:25:47. > :25:51.lot to do with this weekend and a Felipe Massa has a very strong race

:25:51. > :25:54.and the team are keen, the question is, can they keep on? They have not

:25:54. > :26:00.been in the Constructors' Championship for quite a while and

:26:00. > :26:04.in 2010, the last win, they have to do something special and perhaps it

:26:04. > :26:09.is time for a shake-up and the fans are looking towards Kimi Raikkonen.

:26:09. > :26:12.I guess it will happen. We thought it would be a very good idea to talk

:26:13. > :26:28.to Ferrari royalty. Michael Schumacher.

:26:28. > :26:36.It would be nice to see you again. Are you missing F1? It would be

:26:36. > :26:42.wrong to say no. It is not that I needed, first of all. And my life is

:26:42. > :26:48.pretty joyful right now. I would not have had the energy for further

:26:48. > :26:56.years. I was just empty. I said the first time, I called the battery at

:26:56. > :27:07.low level and it was pretty low level again by the end of last year.

:27:07. > :27:12.Have you been surprised by the performance of Mercedes this season?

:27:12. > :27:20.I have been positively surprised. They have established themselves and

:27:20. > :27:26.have been able to use all of those resources in a positive trend. That

:27:26. > :27:34.is why they are where they are. Was that down to the work that you were

:27:34. > :27:38.doing? Well done, Michael.It is natural that the consequence of what

:27:38. > :27:43.you see has built up in the various years. Look at those yearbooks, find

:27:43. > :27:50.all of those people moving into the right vision that make it work into

:27:50. > :27:58.the next. That took time. I was not very optimistic that we would see

:27:58. > :28:03.this. Were you given the credit that you thought that you deserved? For

:28:03. > :28:09.me, it is more important inside the team that I was credited. And people

:28:09. > :28:17.understood what I was doing. And I never had the feeling that I would

:28:17. > :28:21.doubt it. Fernando and Ferrari seem less comfortable and he has been

:28:21. > :28:25.quite vocal, saying he has not been given the tools to win the Champion

:28:25. > :28:31.ship. Would you agree? As part of a team, you are partly responsible for

:28:31. > :28:37.what you have. I don't think in my last three years I ever complained

:28:37. > :28:43.against the team because those guys, their work is to make it the best

:28:43. > :28:47.possible. It does take time and sometimes it takes longer and

:28:47. > :28:53.sometimes it may be does not happen. But still, you belong to that family

:28:53. > :29:03.and you have to do things together so you win and lose together. You

:29:03. > :29:09.watched with interest at Silverstone. What did you make of

:29:09. > :29:14.the situation with the tyres? When the season started and I heard the

:29:14. > :29:24.first complaints, I started to be used. Because I have been ahead of

:29:24. > :29:28.time and in Bahrain I made this comment. 90% of the field, they all

:29:28. > :29:31.complain about the same problem. comment. 90% of the field, they all

:29:31. > :29:36.Maybe Pirelli should think about that. The car can go 100% and the

:29:36. > :29:46.tyres cannot fully cope and you might have to drive 10% less. That

:29:46. > :29:56.is what we use today. That means you have a margin to race and still hold

:29:56. > :30:07.back. We have seen so many races where people drive five seconds

:30:07. > :30:10.slower. That is pretty boring. I use sentimental about the records

:30:10. > :30:19.you have and what you have achieved? -- are you. How will you

:30:19. > :30:25.feel if they are broken? I didn't have statistics in my mind

:30:25. > :30:28.when I was racing. It was a nice consequence. I enjoyed it

:30:28. > :30:42.afterwards. It was not the reason I was racing. I will be happy for

:30:42. > :30:49.Sebastian Vettel achieving this. It was different with myself. You

:30:49. > :30:56.can't compare his five titles to the seven I have achieved. I feel guilty

:30:56. > :31:01.to have broken those kinds of records. I don't think I broke them.

:31:01. > :31:09.I just set my own benchmark. Nobody knows racing better than Ross

:31:09. > :31:15.Brawn. How much work did he put into this team?

:31:15. > :31:21.The thing with Michael is when he came into Formula One, he changed

:31:21. > :31:26.the work ethic. He was the guy who was there at midnight on a Friday or

:31:26. > :31:29.Saturday, working with the engineers, and also back at the

:31:29. > :31:34.factory working with the engineers to help them to understand the

:31:34. > :31:40.car's behaviour. He was not necessarily topping -- telling

:31:40. > :31:45.people what to do but he was helping them to reach the right conclusions.

:31:45. > :31:49.He was helpful to us in formative years. We are seeing the results

:31:49. > :31:55.now. This morning we saw that you had a

:31:55. > :31:59.hydraulic problem in Rosberg's car. What is the latest? We had the

:31:59. > :32:04.problem once before. We thought we What is the latest? We had the

:32:04. > :32:10.solved it. It has recurred this morning. We think we are OK.

:32:10. > :32:14.It lost him the session. It was unfortunate. We had two parallel

:32:14. > :32:27.programmes running with the two car do comparisons. We have one set of

:32:27. > :32:31.the equation missing now. Getting tyres prepared for one lap is

:32:31. > :32:38.tricky. He will not have the benefit of practice on that. Thanks. This

:32:38. > :32:43.weekend, McLaren are celebrating 50 years. It has been a busy week for

:32:43. > :32:49.them. They have had some highlights for you.

:32:49. > :32:56.12 of my victories were on McLaren. Some highs and lows. That is the

:32:56. > :33:00.rich tapestry of life. A busy weekend for Jenson Button but

:33:00. > :33:06.he has found some time for us on the track.

:33:07. > :33:13.If we can steal you away from your garage, let's take a walk around the

:33:13. > :33:19.track. You are seen as a friend of Italian

:33:19. > :33:25.motorsport. We have been on the podium at you have never won the

:33:25. > :33:30.race. I get the vibe you think it will be unlikely to change this

:33:30. > :33:31.weekend. It is always a great place to race.

:33:31. > :33:51.Let's look at the historic parts. We can just see, in the distance,

:33:51. > :33:55.the first chicane. It is about 100 metres from where we are. Every time

:33:55. > :33:58.I come here, I just amazed that drivers would have tackled this flat

:33:58. > :34:14.out and thought it was acceptable. The best bit for me is that it still

:34:14. > :34:19.exists. They haven't tried to put more grandstands here. They have

:34:19. > :34:28.kept it here so the history lives on, which is fantastic. 50 years of

:34:28. > :34:32.McLaren. All of that stuff about celebrating the past, is it

:34:32. > :34:39.something you feel part of? In the 1980s, getting to drive those

:34:39. > :34:44.cars, it was very special. Also the 1974 car, basically the same as the

:34:44. > :34:51.one James Hunt was using. I feel a good part of McLaren. I

:34:51. > :34:56.look forward to adding, hopefully, to the history. We have stopped at

:34:56. > :35:03.the first chicane. You were giving us some stats here. Arriving at 345

:35:03. > :35:10.kilometres per hour. This is a pain, this corner. These

:35:10. > :35:17.are massive. Make a little mistake and Bob over one and you are

:35:17. > :35:21.spinning off into the gravel. We are doing 345. The guys were back in the

:35:21. > :35:24.spinning off into the gravel. We are day, were going straight through

:35:24. > :35:37.here. This is where a lot of the action happens.

:35:37. > :35:45.Alonso has got through! This could be crucial.

:35:45. > :35:50.But it is in Italy and sometimes you have got to give these things up to

:35:50. > :35:53.a Ferrari driver. It does seem the Italians appreciate

:35:53. > :35:58.the British. There is a union Jack at the top there.

:35:59. > :36:04.They must have got here three weeks ago. To get a spot here at Monza, it

:36:04. > :36:12.has got to be the best place to have your Winnebago.

:36:12. > :36:18.It has not been a stellar season for you off McLaren. They are

:36:18. > :36:23.struggling. Bright hopes for the end of the

:36:23. > :36:31.year? It has been a difficult year. We are

:36:31. > :36:36.not used to fighting for sixth, seventh place. We are getting there

:36:36. > :36:42.but it is just the bit we need to really fight those guys. We think we

:36:42. > :36:47.have found some time in the car so hopefully we can get a better

:36:47. > :36:53.result. Good luck this weekend. We are joined by the chief executive

:36:53. > :36:57.of McLaren. You have been here for half of the 50 years. What was your

:36:57. > :37:08.standout moment? There have been so many. Ayrton Senna at Donington. We

:37:08. > :37:15.have had some other big moments. Jensen in Canada a couple of years

:37:15. > :37:19.ago, a fantastic race. Hamilton winning in Brazil. There have been

:37:19. > :37:25.hundreds. We will not necessarily talk about

:37:25. > :37:30.this year because, by your admission, it has been poor. Sergio

:37:31. > :37:35.Perez came to this team looking back to win a Grand Prix. What do you

:37:35. > :37:43.do? He is not going to be second this year.

:37:43. > :37:50.He was up there in P-3. Now we are going to qualifying. Last year we

:37:50. > :37:56.had a good strategy. We are not as quick as we need to be this year.

:37:56. > :38:00.But we're getting there, slowly. We are calling back up through the

:38:00. > :38:05.field. We are focused on doing a better job. Talking about next year

:38:05. > :38:10.and beyond, fantastic news about Honda coming back. What will it do

:38:10. > :38:15.for you? At the moment we have got to respect

:38:15. > :38:22.Mercedes. We are focused on that. We want to finish on a high. Looking to

:38:22. > :38:27.the future, I have been with Honda before. They are there to window we

:38:27. > :38:31.are here to win. It is a fantastic future for the company. At the

:38:31. > :38:36.moment, we are going to try to do a job in qualifying. My little spice

:38:36. > :38:43.says they would be a collaboration between McLaren and Honda. IU

:38:43. > :38:52.confirming that? -- are you confirming that?

:38:52. > :38:58.He is always trying to get a confirmation out of somebody! It was

:38:59. > :39:08.close. Jenson Button was very positive in that video. But the

:39:08. > :39:15.McLarens have been looking strong. I sensed he was a little bit tired

:39:15. > :39:21.on Thursday. You have to do a lot of media work. If you are not winning,

:39:21. > :39:25.it is hard to answer the same old questions. I don't expect anybody at

:39:25. > :39:28.home to feel sorry for these drivers. But the practice has looked

:39:28. > :39:34.better than I think he was anticipating. We will have to see

:39:34. > :39:38.how qualifying finishes. You have got to go to the commentary box, so

:39:38. > :39:44.thank you for that. While I go and find Gary Anderson, it is a good

:39:44. > :39:49.idea, if you are out and about, to download the BBC sport app.

:39:49. > :39:53.You can get all the results and watch video content and our action

:39:53. > :39:59.live when we are live. So, gentlemen, what are we expecting in

:39:59. > :40:04.this next session? Monza call of these cars have got

:40:04. > :40:09.specific part in the car. One of the most interesting developments was

:40:09. > :40:10.the on-board camera in Paul di Resta's car.

:40:10. > :40:15.We were looking at higher temperatures. Watching the cargo

:40:15. > :40:22.around, it is amazing how the temperature changes. These different

:40:22. > :40:30.changes, it is about 80 degrees when it is black. At yellow, it is about

:40:30. > :40:39.160. You can see it warm up. The left front tyre is warming up. There

:40:39. > :40:44.you go again, the same deal. The problem at Monza is the straights.

:40:44. > :40:49.The tyre temperature is dropping. At the braking point of a corner, you

:40:49. > :40:54.have lost the tyre temperature. You have got to look after the tyres.

:40:54. > :40:59.Fascinating. You like this stuff? Indeed. I would say that some of

:40:59. > :41:07.this is responsible for the failure on Paul di Resta's car. The change

:41:07. > :41:13.in temperature is quick. You have to understand that this is what damages

:41:14. > :41:18.things. Is it going to be a happy home

:41:18. > :41:24.crowd? Any chance of a Ferrari pole?

:41:24. > :41:30.The two Ferraris were going around trying to Tomic other. They did it

:41:30. > :41:37.last year. -- trying to tone each other. These two are the only two

:41:37. > :41:44.team-mates who are close enough to make it happen. Logically, it is

:41:44. > :41:49.tough to do. Lewis Hamilton, he has qualified on pole for the last five

:41:49. > :41:55.races. He is looking for his sixth. The Red Bull cars are quick. You can

:41:55. > :41:59.never discount Hamilton. He is a pole position man. But he doesn't

:41:59. > :42:08.have the confidence in the brakes. He will be pushing hard to get

:42:08. > :42:13.himself up there. It would be an incredible feat. You

:42:13. > :42:18.always say he holds something back. What about this weekend?

:42:18. > :42:23.I don't think he sandbagged in the last session. I think he was trying

:42:23. > :42:28.as hard as he could. In the first couple of laps, Alonso seems to have

:42:28. > :42:31.this under control. That is frightening for the other teams. In

:42:31. > :42:39.this downforce situation, I think Red Bull are strong. As Gary pointed

:42:39. > :42:46.out, Mark Webber could do really well if he had a deal with Vettel.

:42:46. > :42:48.Five in a row for Hamilton would be extraordinary, when you look at the

:42:48. > :42:56.Five in a row for Hamilton would be back of the start of the season when

:42:56. > :42:58.he wasn't sure about the team. Vettel just looked outstanding in

:42:58. > :43:04.he wasn't sure about the team. every single session, didn't he?

:43:04. > :43:11.That is the thing. Red Bull really do their work.

:43:11. > :43:15.The car looked fantastic. The driver gets real confidence. That makes you

:43:15. > :43:25.The car looked fantastic. The driver try harder. But if you look a wheel

:43:25. > :43:35.in a chicane, you can lose time. -- lock a wheel. They were not only

:43:35. > :43:39.confident, they were testing things. It is one of those situations. The

:43:39. > :43:44.momentum is taking them forward. That is the important thing. I don't

:43:44. > :43:52.see Mark Webber and Vettel tow ring each other around too much. They

:43:52. > :43:56.don't work together in the same way as the Ferraris. They could spring a

:43:56. > :44:05.surprise. Who is going to be on pole? I think

:44:05. > :44:11.it is Vettel. Alonso will try to be alongside him. Let's go with

:44:11. > :44:14.Ferrari. That is the prediction from Eddie

:44:14. > :44:16.Jordan. We can go to the commentary team, Ben Edwards and David

:44:16. > :44:40.Coulthard. Just like monocle, Monza is one of

:44:40. > :44:46.the original venues of F1 yet sits in a park three times the size of

:44:46. > :44:53.the entire monocle principality. Qualifying for round 12 will see an

:44:53. > :44:59.average lap speed of around 150 mph, the highest of the season as we come

:44:59. > :45:04.to the end of Europe, just outside Milan in sunny northern Italy. The

:45:04. > :45:10.layout looks simple enough. Very little elevation, only six real

:45:10. > :45:15.cornering events but each one demands such commitment on the

:45:15. > :45:22.brakes that there is very little margin for error. Each sector

:45:22. > :45:27.features a chicane but the final sector with Variante Ascari and

:45:27. > :45:31.Curva Parabolica that can cause problems and in this final year of

:45:31. > :45:38.the eight engines, we are very likely to see just how any fractions

:45:38. > :45:45.celebrate -- separating each car. Sebastian Vettel has had a bit of a

:45:45. > :45:51.margin over everybody. He was faster than Fernando Alonso this afternoon,

:45:52. > :45:57.-- this morning. Perez was up there and then Daniel Ricciardo in the top

:45:57. > :46:03.ten. But the track itself is in tremendous shape with a temperature

:46:03. > :46:06.of 42 degrees in the air temperature is 30 degrees and it is gloriously

:46:06. > :46:11.in Italy, people protecting themselves from the intense sunshine

:46:11. > :46:14.that they are enjoying on the grandstand and the anticipation is

:46:14. > :46:20.building. Can Ferrari deliver? That is one of the big questions. On home

:46:20. > :46:25.turf, where they are almost a religion. And Ferrari support here

:46:25. > :46:32.has always been a major part of coming. Tom is in the pit lane. You

:46:32. > :46:39.know some stories. Passion and Ferrari go hand in hand? There is

:46:39. > :46:43.this enormous flag of the prancing horse and the men underneath are

:46:43. > :46:47.getting annoyed and they push it out of the way. But there is a wonderful

:46:47. > :46:52.atmosphere and I had a quick chat with Fernando Alonso and he said

:46:52. > :46:56.that his car dropped him outside of the panic turnstiles, right outside,

:46:56. > :47:01.and it still took 20 minutes to walk ten metres because he got completely

:47:01. > :47:06.swamped and it just goes with the territory. You are worshipped here

:47:06. > :47:12.at Monza. And they will be hoping for a very good weekend. Paul di

:47:12. > :47:19.Resta, ready to come out. He went off at the Parabolica this morning

:47:19. > :47:22.and had a brake disc failure. He is ready to come out and do whatever he

:47:22. > :47:28.can. He had a very good qualifying master. He had that gearbox penalty

:47:28. > :47:34.and he was fourth fastest. I don't think there is much prospect that

:47:34. > :47:36.Paul di Resta will be that much quicker because Force India were

:47:36. > :47:43.struggling this morning? Through practice and we know that he had

:47:43. > :47:47.that failure with the car but his team-mate, Adrian Sutil, has had

:47:47. > :47:52.another seven or eight laps and ran on the option. He was only a feud

:47:52. > :47:56.10th is faster so they stopped development and they have accepted

:47:56. > :48:00.that the dream of staying in front of McLaren in the Constructors'

:48:00. > :48:05.Championship is over and this is about consolidating their position.

:48:05. > :48:08.Mark Webber. He has a record that he would probably like to change at

:48:08. > :48:12.Monza. It has never been put together the kind to him. He has

:48:12. > :48:17.never had a podium finish around this track or even top five. His

:48:17. > :48:24.best finish was in 2010, sixth place. Here is a man that never won

:48:24. > :48:29.at Monza and he came close. On one occasion he was leading and the

:48:29. > :48:34.camera feel of his car and knocked into his team-mates car and he then

:48:34. > :48:44.retired. He was second in the early 1990s. Another visitors year this

:48:44. > :48:47.weekend. The Ferrari fans are right in force and it's great to see the

:48:47. > :48:51.support that we get from them. Fernando Alonso has had wins from

:48:51. > :48:56.pole position here in the past, once when driving for McLaren and then,

:48:56. > :49:01.notably, when driving for Ferrari in 2010. Last year Lewis Hamilton was

:49:01. > :49:07.the winner at Monza with that brilliant victory. He went on to

:49:07. > :49:10.take the win from pole position. John Todd, the president of the FIA.

:49:10. > :49:21.take the win from pole position. He will be standing for election. He

:49:21. > :49:35.has some opposition this year from James Ward. -- Jean Todt. Christian

:49:35. > :49:42.Horner joins us. Qualifying has just begun. Tell us about tactics going

:49:42. > :49:48.into the next three sessions? Go as fast as you can and qualify as hard

:49:48. > :49:52.as you can. Obviously, it is navigating as cleanly as you can

:49:52. > :49:57.throughout this first session and then trying to get through on those

:49:57. > :50:01.harder tyres and then go from there. Do you feel you have enough pace to

:50:01. > :50:07.go through on the harder tyres? What sort of difference are we seeing in

:50:07. > :50:14.the tyres? Not that great. Probably a maximum of half a second. There is

:50:14. > :50:21.much less of a gap than we have seen at previous races. Who do you see as

:50:21. > :50:25.your closest rivals? Clearly, Ferrari are in good shape and were

:50:25. > :50:30.using each other. Do you see them as the major threat? They are working

:50:30. > :50:36.in tandem. Obviously, Fernando will be the main benefactor of that body

:50:36. > :50:43.has to be the main challenger but Lewis Hamilton has done this so many

:50:43. > :50:47.times and Mercedes have had all of those polls since Montreal. They

:50:47. > :50:56.have to be a very big factor. Thank you. Nico Rosberg is trying to make

:50:56. > :51:02.up for lost time. It is important to get a feel for this. Looking at the

:51:02. > :51:14.cut-off, the top 16 will go through from Q1 into Q2. What lap times

:51:14. > :51:22.should we be looking at? TEAM RADIO: eight times. Planning to push. Leave

:51:22. > :51:27.it up to you on four and we shall leave it up to you on six and eight.

:51:27. > :51:34.Doing quite that long run on the hard tyre? Trying to push on every

:51:34. > :51:41.other lap. You are trying to get the tyres warmed up, that is the biggest

:51:41. > :51:47.problem, adding that balance. He will have to do 1:20 5.2. It is not

:51:47. > :51:51.easy on hard tyres. Only three cars, I think, can do that but

:51:51. > :51:57.unless you do that, you have to be ready to go again. Vettel was in 24

:51:57. > :52:03.on the harder tyres. He should be able to get through this. For the

:52:03. > :52:07.likes of McLaren and even notice, they might have to go to those

:52:07. > :52:10.softer tyres? I would be surprised if most of them do not. Sebastian

:52:10. > :52:15.Vettel can get through but softer tyres are not degrading so it does

:52:15. > :52:20.not matter, it is still pretty quick. It is one of those things, it

:52:20. > :52:25.is a very big challenge on the pit wall. We are waiting to see this

:52:25. > :52:29.first times but Nico Rosberg will give the first indication because he

:52:29. > :52:33.is one of the first out. Most of the other runners in the pit lane. Mark

:52:33. > :52:43.Webber, Jenson Button, Perez, Kenny Raikkonen, Hamilton. Q1 is the

:52:43. > :52:51.longer of the sessions, 20 minutes. -- Kimi Raikkonen. Gutierrez was

:52:51. > :52:55.13th fastest this morning and Sauber has looked stronger relative to the

:52:55. > :53:04.nearest opposition, like Force India. They seem to be one step

:53:04. > :53:11.ahead this morning. Celebrating the anniversary of McLaren but not much

:53:11. > :53:15.happening in the garage right now. Jenson Button, generally they are

:53:15. > :53:20.performing better than they expected. And it remains to be seen

:53:20. > :53:25.if those warmer track conditions from earlier in the day will

:53:25. > :53:28.continue and just they were on good euros, he will not be doing as many

:53:28. > :53:31.continue and just they were on good laps as Rosberg so there will be

:53:31. > :53:39.that sizeable fuel effect carrying the extra kilos if possible to do

:53:39. > :53:47.that extra. More to come.Ferrari, coming out together. Felipe Massa

:53:47. > :53:50.ahead of Fernando Alonso and Pastor Maldonado in front of them. I was

:53:50. > :53:54.advised he allied himself to be as close. Unless that has been an

:53:54. > :53:58.agreement between the South Americans before heading out.

:53:58. > :54:03.Williams have looked pretty racy free practice so this is sitting the

:54:03. > :54:12.profile of their aerodynamic package. Maybe Williams are hoping

:54:12. > :54:16.to get the car ten this afternoon. What kind of effect will Fernando

:54:16. > :54:21.Alonso be picking up and how far back will he begin to gain something

:54:21. > :54:25.by following? The more you or into the car in front, the more of the

:54:25. > :54:29.slipstream because that car in front is punching a hole in the air. But

:54:30. > :54:36.at that sort of distance, about 20 car lengths, you are getting some

:54:36. > :54:43.effect. It is reducing drag a pushing all of the airflow so he is

:54:43. > :54:48.not only getting that effect... He is also getting the benefit of

:54:48. > :54:53.Williams upfront. And there is another in front, helping push them

:54:53. > :54:58.forward. That will be helping Fernando Alonso. Let's keep an eye

:54:58. > :55:04.on these tyres. Felipe Massa, goes across the slip -- split. He is

:55:04. > :55:10.certainly helping Fernando Alonso. Part of that would also be the fact

:55:10. > :55:15.that he is picking up slipstream. More slipstream from Paul di Resta,

:55:15. > :55:19.going quite slowly. Fernando Alonso tucked in behind him. Into

:55:19. > :55:27.Parabolica, he is not losing downforce. He might still pick up

:55:27. > :55:41.some slipstream. And across the line, Fernando Alonso is fastest.

:55:41. > :55:44.1:20 4.9. That could be enough. They may not have to go on to those

:55:44. > :55:50.softer tyres. That will keep them happy. He looks very pensive at the

:55:50. > :55:56.moment. He does, great passion for Ferrari. Having been there in the

:55:56. > :56:05.days of Niki Lauda. Very part of that group. -- very much part of

:56:05. > :56:12.that group. He has seen a lot over the years. Fernando Alonso, then

:56:12. > :56:16.Jean-Eric Vergne, Toro Rosso. They are the other Italian team. He was

:56:16. > :56:22.going pretty well this morning, 11th fastest. Ricciardo was in sixth

:56:22. > :56:27.place. It could be not the other Italian League could put in a

:56:27. > :56:32.surprising result. Rosberg is third, on his longest sequence of laps.

:56:32. > :56:41.On-board with Mark Webber. Second chicane. We are listening out for

:56:41. > :56:47.just how quickly he gets onto that power is Mike he was hesitant.

:56:47. > :56:58.Feeling his way on those prime tyres. Just a little bit pensive

:56:58. > :57:05.from Mark Webber. He has been off his team-mate, three or four tenths

:57:05. > :57:10.through these factors sessions. Quite late on that downshift. When a

:57:10. > :57:14.driver is confident, he will go down through the gearbox like a machine

:57:14. > :57:20.gun. Doing that last shift quite late. It suggests his rear tyres are

:57:20. > :57:21.not giving him the grip and balance he would be looking for at this

:57:21. > :57:27.stage. Nice and smooth through that he would be looking for at this

:57:27. > :57:34.final turn, but Jean-Eric Vergne has gone fastest. Mark Webber, fifth

:57:34. > :57:37.place. All of these drivers using the harder tyres at the moment and

:57:37. > :57:44.some will switch. Daniel Ricciardo is lighting up the screens. Fastest

:57:44. > :57:47.of anybody in the first sector and a reasonable second sector but not

:57:47. > :57:52.quite as quick as some. Ricciardo has just gone third. Kimi Raikkonen,

:57:52. > :57:59.fourth place then Jean-Eric Vergne quickly -- currently quickest. That

:57:59. > :58:04.will give them a boost. They were looking good through free practice

:58:04. > :58:07.and it is always a question about the fuel on board and Toro Rosso

:58:07. > :58:12.have historically gone for those high top speeds to give the guys at

:58:12. > :58:16.best chance of overtaking. And if you can Alan start and give you a

:58:16. > :58:21.driver confidence, you can deliver lap times and hear is that great

:58:21. > :58:26.thermal image... This shows just how the tyres heat up through corners

:58:26. > :58:39.and lose temperature on the straight. There is a fantastic way

:58:39. > :58:43.of cooling down the tyres. Watching that temperature, that left front

:58:43. > :58:46.really holding up turning right and then the right front ending up as he

:58:46. > :58:51.turns left. The orange colour shows then the right front ending up as he

:58:51. > :59:01.those high-temperature is. -- temperatures. TEAM RADIO: OK,

:59:01. > :59:08.understood. Hot on the left-hand side. That indicates cooling

:59:08. > :59:14.problems? It depends on what electrical devices they have. It

:59:14. > :59:21.could well be that the cooling duct has become blocked and the driver is

:59:21. > :59:25.sitting in a carbon fibre tub and the brakes are also made of carbon

:59:25. > :59:29.fibre because it conducts heat and you have the radiators of the

:59:29. > :59:37.engine, 120 degrees, radiating into that cock that. If there is any

:59:37. > :59:40.blockage, of any discussion, it could be Kers or battery packs and

:59:40. > :59:53.that could indicate some problem. On-board with Lewis Hamilton. Tom?

:59:53. > :00:00.He had a problem yesterday. He was late at the start of the session. He

:00:00. > :00:05.doesn't seem to have the rub of the green. Certainly not here at Monza,

:00:05. > :00:10.where he has never finished in the top five.

:00:10. > :00:18.A couple of changes coming in there. Alonso has gone second. Hamilton is

:00:18. > :00:26.third. Ricky Andrew is fourth. Here comes Sebastian Vettel. -- Ricciardo

:00:26. > :00:32.is fourth. Look out for the white writing on the side walls. That

:00:32. > :00:39.means they will go to the softer tyres.

:00:39. > :00:47.Perez is getting information on where he needs to find time.

:00:47. > :00:55.Raikkonen goes into fourth. Van der Garde is quickest at the moment out

:00:55. > :01:05.of the Mirage drivers. -- Marussia drivers. Only Sebastian Vettel is

:01:05. > :01:09.yet to set a time. Grosjean is using every inch of the road and a bit

:01:09. > :01:13.more, but no penalties will apply for that kind of driving in

:01:13. > :01:18.qualifying, anyway. It is only if you gain an advantage during the

:01:18. > :01:20.race. Then they will start to look at it more closely. It happens to

:01:20. > :01:24.race. Then they will start to look him in Hungary. Felipe Massa crosses

:01:24. > :01:30.the line and he is fifth fastest him in Hungary. Felipe Massa crosses

:01:30. > :01:41.with that. He is three tenths of a second off what Jean-Eric Vergne has

:01:41. > :01:48.done. Rowan Atkinson in the Mercedes hits at the moment. He is a big car

:01:48. > :01:54.fan. He used to do touring car racing. If you follow the tabloids,

:01:54. > :01:59.he is in a few excursions in his road cars as well.

:01:59. > :02:06.So, Sergio Perez. He has found where he needs to find time. Can he do

:02:06. > :02:10.it? Keep an eye on who is in the bottom six at the moment. Vettel is

:02:10. > :02:23.it to set a lap time. BT heiress is in the bottom six. -- Gutierrez. A

:02:23. > :02:33.good time from Jenson Button. Perez has gone into number six. More

:02:33. > :02:36.encouraging from McLaren. David? We are hearing a message that

:02:37. > :02:43.Rosberg has been told to come off the DRS earlier. That is to bring

:02:43. > :02:47.the ride-height up, to get the right attitude of the car when he enters a

:02:47. > :02:54.corner. It shows the level of detail the engineers are looking at to

:02:54. > :02:58.understand their loads. Now, Vettel could be going quickly

:02:58. > :03:04.here. We will keep an eye on his times. In the second sector

:03:04. > :03:11.committee has made up for his first sector time. -- in the second

:03:11. > :03:15.sector, he has made up for his first sector time. A bit more happiness

:03:15. > :03:28.there. Let's watch the completion of this lap. This will probably be the

:03:28. > :03:32.only run of his. There is a suggestion of instability

:03:33. > :03:34.into the corners. A bit of fine tooth -- time to find in that last

:03:34. > :03:45.sector. It is just about trying to get

:03:45. > :03:51.through this first part of qualifying. David Hasselhoff is a

:03:51. > :03:58.guest of Red Bull. Di Resta is in 16th place. Any updates on Force

:03:58. > :04:04.India, Tom? He is on the cusp of qualifying and

:04:04. > :04:09.going through to Q2. It is encouraging that he is currently

:04:09. > :04:13.ahead of Adrian Sutil on the time sheets. They rebuilt the front of

:04:13. > :04:18.his car is morning. He went straight on to Parabolica with a new front

:04:18. > :04:23.side to the car. He has gone out and put a lap time in. Hopefully he is

:04:23. > :04:28.happy with the car and can get the maximum out of it.

:04:28. > :04:35.Hamilton goes fastest. Good lad. He is still on the harder tyre. This

:04:35. > :04:41.string of pole position he has had recently, he is not going to give it

:04:41. > :04:44.up without a fight. Meanwhile, another message from Rosberg. He has

:04:44. > :04:50.been told not to ride the brake pedal. As he tries to make up for

:04:50. > :04:55.the last time of not running a full practice, his engineer is with him

:04:55. > :05:04.all the way. He has got six tenths to make. He is assuming the role at

:05:04. > :05:11.the front we have seen in all of the practice items -- sessions.

:05:11. > :05:18.We are looking for the battle into the top 16. Out at the moment is

:05:18. > :05:27.this driver, Gutierrez. Let's watch the remainder of his lap. A smooth

:05:27. > :05:32.turn into Parabolica. He is trying to beat the target for the top 16,

:05:32. > :05:40.and he just does it. He is certainly not secure. He has got di Resta and

:05:40. > :05:47.Sutil behind him. If that is his first lap on the tyres, maybe he

:05:47. > :05:55.will have a cooler and do it again. -- a cool it lap.

:05:55. > :06:09.A good speech right figure for Gutierrez. -- speed track figure.

:06:09. > :06:17.He was good in qualifying last year. He had a car failure. That was this

:06:17. > :06:27.morning. You have got to get right back out there and deliver.

:06:27. > :06:31.Di Resta is a reasonable lap here to get himself through this first part

:06:32. > :06:40.of qualifying. Just under three minutes to go.

:06:40. > :06:47.He was not up by much. Force in the are struggling. Sutil were fired

:06:47. > :06:54.second a couple of years ago. -- Sutil qualified. Di Resta is 14th at

:06:54. > :07:00.the moment. That is not as far as he would like to be.

:07:00. > :07:09.It will be interesting to see what time Sutil dove. -- dads. It has

:07:09. > :07:18.been it and tuck between them. He is into 13th.

:07:18. > :07:34.We knew it would be fractions of a second. We have got van der Garde,

:07:34. > :07:40.fastest of the Marussia teams. Behind him, Bianchi and Max Chilton.

:07:40. > :07:47.Which two drivers are going to join them in the drop zone? Gutierrez and

:07:48. > :07:57.Bottas will be fighting up the order. Across the line has gone

:07:57. > :08:03.Bottas. He has not been able to improve. Still 1.5 minutes to go.

:08:03. > :08:11.Grosjean, the Lotus is not looking so competitive. 24.7 against 24.3.

:08:11. > :08:18.Oh, my goodness. He didn't want to do that. That will not do the bottom

:08:18. > :08:30.of his car any good. Rosberg has gone fastest in the

:08:30. > :08:41.second sector. Is it enough? Just! He is just into the top 16 x two

:08:41. > :08:52.thousandss of a second. -- by two thousandss of a second.

:08:52. > :09:02.Hamilton has not done that. Jean-Eric Vergne and Ricciardo have

:09:02. > :09:09.done another outstanding job. Perez is going quickly, too.

:09:09. > :09:18.Bottas is not going faster in any of these sectors. 12 seconds to go.

:09:18. > :09:26.It is tight. Can he make the line? He is just going to beat the

:09:26. > :09:32.chequered flag. Perfectly timed! The whole plan was to look after the

:09:32. > :09:38.tyres and come up for one more. It is all about that one lap.

:09:38. > :09:40.Di Resta is also trying to do a better lap. He is only just in there

:09:40. > :09:45.Di Resta is also trying to do a at the moment. Let's see what

:09:45. > :09:51.happens. He was a bit more of a at the moment. Let's see what

:09:51. > :09:58.margin to move further up. He is 14th. He is ahead of his team-mate,

:09:58. > :10:04.Sutil. Gutierrez is in the danger zone. Let's see what the Williams

:10:04. > :10:12.pair can do. You are on board with Maldonado. His victories last year

:10:12. > :10:14.seemed so long ago. He is doing all he can to get into the second part

:10:14. > :10:21.seemed so long ago. He is doing all of qualifying. He is less than a

:10:21. > :10:27.second away from the fastest car, so a small gap.

:10:27. > :10:33.Oh, he has done it. He is up to 12th. Good luck from Maldonado. Can

:10:33. > :10:40.his Finnish team-mate, Bottas, do the same and try to move up into the

:10:40. > :10:45.top 16? It would push Sutil out. He has seen the chequered flag. No

:10:45. > :10:51.response from Sutil. Has he done it? Oh, no, he hasn't. He ends up

:10:51. > :10:55.18th and he has chopped out of qualifying. He could not quite match

:10:55. > :11:00.Maldonado. He used his great experience to get through to the

:11:00. > :11:05.next part of qualifying. We have lost a Sauber and a Williams as well

:11:05. > :11:09.as the two caterers and the two Marussias. It shows you how tight it

:11:09. > :11:25.is at both ends of the grid. I don't think we've had it that

:11:25. > :11:29.close at any Grand Prix this year. Jean-Eric Vergne was one of the

:11:29. > :11:35.stars of that session. He was impressive in the Toro Rosso. They

:11:35. > :11:39.have got a great chance of being in the top ten here today. Yankee is

:11:40. > :11:44.out but he beat his team-mate in the end. Max Chilton had been beating

:11:44. > :12:08.him. -- Bianchi is out. This was Grosjean. He was indecisive

:12:08. > :12:16.about whether to go straight on. Nine out of ten for stale. Yes, he

:12:16. > :12:21.has got through. That was a slide for Bottas. Don't know where that

:12:21. > :12:29.was. That would have cost him a bit. He got a strip Sleeman -- slipstream

:12:29. > :12:36.on the way down to Parabolica. But overall it was a slow lap.

:12:36. > :12:40.That brings it back to six all in terms of who has been the fastest in

:12:40. > :12:43.qualifying this year. Sebastian Vettel was fastest in the first part

:12:43. > :12:54.of qualifying from Rosberg, Hamilton, and Ricciardo. We have

:12:54. > :13:02.lost Gutierrez, van der Garde, Bianchi and Max Chilton.

:13:02. > :13:10.lost Gutierrez, van der Garde, What a hand it was that he showed.

:13:10. > :13:14.He went out and did the business. Bottas will be disappointed because

:13:14. > :13:20.his team-mates got through. Maldonado got through well.

:13:20. > :13:23.The speed will appear to be in the car. He will be disappointed. Those

:13:23. > :13:29.two are fighting like crazy. Nevertheless, Bottas come here not

:13:30. > :13:33.going further. The Toro Rosso boys are impressive,

:13:33. > :13:38.though. Very, very strong. People make

:13:38. > :13:43.mistakes here. Anticipation about who can do what. The Toro Rosso

:13:44. > :13:48.people are fantastic. They have a good chance of making the top ten.

:13:48. > :13:54.The car is obviously very quick, aerodynamically. Have they let

:13:54. > :14:00.anything from Red Bull? It is obviously a quick car. To have four

:14:00. > :14:05.cars in the top six is brilliant. It is a track where a tiny mistake can

:14:05. > :14:12.make you pay. You do, you have got to keep the

:14:12. > :14:17.speed up all the time. He must not let it die in the car. You have got

:14:17. > :14:23.to keep your foot on the throttle. You have got to be neat and tidy

:14:23. > :14:30.through the chicanes. Why you impressed with Rosberg? --

:14:30. > :14:38.were you. Those tyres may come into play

:14:38. > :14:43.later. Let's see what happens. It is still Vettel for me. He looks so

:14:43. > :14:48.strong. We are looking at Bianchi. A great

:14:48. > :14:54.talent of the future, don't you think?

:14:54. > :14:58.He is. I am mindful that his team-mate is Max Chilton. What I

:14:58. > :15:05.love about these young guys coming through, even though they are a bit

:15:05. > :15:11.depressed that they should be better, remember, two years ago,

:15:11. > :15:15.Ricciardo was driving for HRT. He got a chance and he has worked his

:15:15. > :15:18.way up and now he's in the best team in Formula One. We are coming up to

:15:18. > :15:20.Q2 to find out who will go out in in Formula One. We are coming up to

:15:20. > :15:30.our next shoot out. Sebastian Vettel, so far looking

:15:30. > :15:32.very impressive in the first qualifying segment but what happens

:15:32. > :15:40.to try to determine in the top ten qualifying segment but what happens

:15:40. > :15:44.and that final shoot out, this is where it gets very close and all of

:15:44. > :15:50.these drivers going into this next session were covered by one second

:15:50. > :15:55.and will come down even further whether you make it into the top ten

:15:55. > :16:00.or not. The calm before the storm and Mark Webber just seems to be

:16:00. > :16:03.struggling a little against his team-mate but he did get through

:16:03. > :16:08.using the harder compound. Fernando Alonso got through but Felipe Massa

:16:08. > :16:12.had to go on to the softer tyre but still did not set a particularly

:16:12. > :16:18.quick time? That will be concerning for them, he is certainly playing a

:16:18. > :16:23.supporting role, trying to give his team-mate the best shot at the

:16:23. > :16:29.slipstream but his tyres are older. He will always be on the back foot

:16:29. > :16:41.but we still looks like tend to be comfortably in the top ten. -- we

:16:41. > :16:42.still expect him to be. Sometimes drivers have tracks that really suit

:16:42. > :16:48.them. Mark has been strong at drivers have tracks that really suit

:16:48. > :16:54.Silverstone but Monza, it is one of those particular tracks, shedding

:16:54. > :16:58.speed in short order, and that does not suit his driving style as much.

:16:58. > :17:05.Sebastian Vettel focusing on what he needs to do. Gary, what do they need

:17:05. > :17:12.to do? One second covering all of these car is! The one thing with

:17:12. > :17:15.this circuit is the engine, nobody likes to turn eight up to maximum

:17:15. > :17:28.performance to early with limited laps for that. 24.5, over that you

:17:28. > :17:35.could trip up. Again, the performance just keeps coming up.

:17:35. > :17:39.Toro Rosso going well, both cars in the top ten. Jean-Eric Vergne and we

:17:39. > :17:45.did see Ricciardo going wide but they have got great pace. Is that

:17:45. > :17:50.because of those high speeds and the low downforce nature of the circuit?

:17:50. > :17:54.Everything as economise between straight line and corner speed and

:17:54. > :17:57.we see both Toro Rosso cars, Ricciardo is faster on the straight

:17:57. > :18:00.and they are right up there. And Ricciardo is faster on the straight

:18:01. > :18:08.they are knocking on the door. They have got their car in its sweet

:18:08. > :18:12.spot. Also, talking to David about the fact that Felipe Massa went on

:18:12. > :18:21.to be the tyres but did not do a particularly quick lap. He still

:18:21. > :18:25.could be a factor? That is difficult because the engineers told him he

:18:26. > :18:32.did not needed. He went to tighten his seat belt and that might have

:18:32. > :18:38.saved him for this next session. We have got under 13 seconds -- 30

:18:38. > :18:40.minutes of this second qualifying and Daniel Ricciardo, an Italian

:18:40. > :18:48.heritage but very much a pride Australian. We go on board with him

:18:48. > :18:51.as he goes through Curva di Lesmos. We shall see if he can repeat the

:18:51. > :18:57.kind of performance we have seen from Toro Rosso already. You can

:18:57. > :19:04.hear some wheels spin as he went hard on the throttle. That will not

:19:04. > :19:10.have helped his acceleration towards Variante Ascari. Small change of

:19:10. > :19:16.direction, flat running out. And then pick the part that is least

:19:16. > :19:18.resistant towards Parabolica. You traditionally stay on the right hand

:19:18. > :19:25.side until under the bridge and then drift over. Working the wheel as he

:19:25. > :19:33.tries to Alan 's his tyres flat out as he runs for the line. --

:19:33. > :19:46.balance. He needed better macro 44.6. -- 1:40 4.6. Lovely, listening

:19:46. > :19:49.to the gears as a charge through the first chicane. He might back off?

:19:49. > :19:53.Hulkenberg is another who has made first chicane. He might back off?

:19:53. > :19:58.it through into the second part but the next step is always proved very

:19:59. > :20:04.difficult for Sauber this year. His best qualifying performance is 10th

:20:04. > :20:09.place. Germany. But only then as he managed to drag Sauber into the

:20:09. > :20:14.final part of qualifying and I doubt he will have much opportunity today.

:20:14. > :20:19.Let us wait and see. Still a lot of interest as to where he might end up

:20:19. > :20:23.next. He is being talked about by many people. Ricciardo currently

:20:23. > :20:28.fastest and Paul di Resta is second-fastest. Jean-Eric Vergne,

:20:28. > :20:34.not quite as quick as his team-mate on the opening gambit.

:20:34. > :20:45.Sebastian Vettel still in the pits. TEAM RADIO: two laps of fuel. They

:20:45. > :20:50.Sebastian Vettel still in the pits. will not do a very long run. Looking

:20:50. > :20:55.onto the driver track, both Ferrari cars are out together. Felipe Massa

:20:55. > :21:00.judicially leading the way as they come towards Variante Ascari. I love

:21:00. > :21:05.this contrast between the old, historic track when we had the need

:21:05. > :21:09.for speed and then a modern circuit with that chicane and health and

:21:09. > :21:12.save the and all those sorts of things entered the thought process.

:21:12. > :21:23.It is still fast, you cannot deny it! 220 mph into that first chicane!

:21:23. > :21:27.We will see what it looks like from the driver 's point of view. This is

:21:28. > :21:32.the first chicane. This is what you don't want to see! Well, he is

:21:32. > :21:37.making his own line. The matter how many times he does that, he will

:21:37. > :21:43.have two decide to take the apex into turn number one some time soon.

:21:43. > :21:51.Last he was serving his ban for the accident. His reserve driver was

:21:51. > :22:00.driving. He will still be angry about that. Fernando Alonso, fastest

:22:00. > :22:04.in the first sector of anybody. Quite aggressive on the throttle in

:22:04. > :22:12.the second part. His team-mate is quite a bit ahead of him. He will be

:22:12. > :22:17.going for that slipstream on the run down to Variante Ascari. And

:22:17. > :22:23.Fernando Alonso will pass before Parabolica. Did he go to early? Once

:22:23. > :22:27.you have committed, you cannot go any faster than you are going. This

:22:27. > :22:32.will make an fastest in this session. We'll Felipe Massa back

:22:32. > :22:39.I'd? It looks like you will. Picking up the slipstream from Force India

:22:39. > :22:48.and that might cost him some time. -- will Felipe Massa back out.

:22:48. > :22:56.Someone has gone very wide. Alonso trying to pick up the slipstream

:22:56. > :23:02.from that car. That is very fast. Fernando Alonso was fastest in Q2

:23:02. > :23:10.last. Was it Hamilton who went wide? It might be. This is coming out of

:23:10. > :23:16.Parabolica. Oh my goodness!He only just saved that! He was sucked into

:23:16. > :23:24.the gravel pit! He was concentrating on something else! Interestingly,

:23:24. > :23:30.Felipe Massa, quickest, did not allow Fernando Alonso to go past him

:23:30. > :23:34.so he has gone for his lap but still half of a second down on his

:23:34. > :23:41.team-mate. Kimi Raikkonen passing the line, in fourth place for the

:23:41. > :23:51.moment. Gary Reich and made 24 would produce safe. And there is another

:23:51. > :23:57.one-time Ferrari driver. Gerhard Berger. But very famous victory in

:23:57. > :24:03.1998 when the season was dominated by McLaren. Anteater victory on that

:24:03. > :24:06.day. That is a very poignant moment. Soon after the death of Enzo

:24:06. > :24:24.Ferrari. -- and they took victory. Nico Rosberg, we know that he had to

:24:24. > :24:30.use his softer tyres on the first part of qualifying but he moves up

:24:30. > :24:38.to second place. In the drops, currently. -- drop zone. Tension

:24:38. > :24:43.to second place. In the drops, building nicely. Through the second

:24:44. > :24:53.part of qualifying. We will have to wait and see what Hamilton will do.

:24:53. > :25:00.Out of Variante Ascari and then just the case of wobbling around to try

:25:00. > :25:05.and shake some gravel from the car or... It is not to warm his tyres.

:25:05. > :25:09.Perhaps he feels something is in the cockpit, perhaps dine in his foot

:25:09. > :25:19.well and he is worried if that thought -- stone is going to sit

:25:19. > :25:26.somewhere. He will have one more go. Perhaps he feels something he is not

:25:26. > :25:31.happy with. Adrian Sutil. Drivers are very sensitive, it could be the

:25:32. > :25:36.tiniest stone in the cockpit and he is trying to locate that. Someone

:25:36. > :25:44.will try to locate that for him. Perez crossing the line. 11th place.

:25:44. > :25:49.Exactly the same lap time as Paul di Resta. Force India and McLaren in

:25:49. > :25:53.this very tight battle in the Constructors' Championship. Which

:25:53. > :25:59.McLaren managed to grasp the last time out. Partly gangster that

:25:59. > :26:06.incident down at that chicane. McLaren have just edged ahead but

:26:06. > :26:13.Jenson Button is still ahead. Just four points separating McLaren and

:26:13. > :26:20.Force India. Gerhard Berger drove for him at Benetton earlier in his

:26:20. > :26:27.career. Rosberg back in. Both Mercedes car is back. Here is Mark

:26:28. > :26:30.Webber. What will he do? He is on the softer tyres. And he is building

:26:30. > :26:36.Webber. What will he do? He is on up to his lap. And Sebastian Vettel.

:26:36. > :26:42.It looks like Red Bull have gone for that one single attempt. That shows

:26:42. > :26:55.confidence. It does not mean the driver will not feel some different

:26:55. > :27:04.-- difference. It puts more pressure on the team. Can Mark Webber try to

:27:04. > :27:13.put what has been a bogey track behind him. And those new tyres will

:27:13. > :27:16.be going on soon. He has some traffic coming out of the pits but

:27:16. > :27:24.that is absolutely no problem. Try not to lock up. His car changes

:27:24. > :27:29.direction nicely. That has got to be the target? You could visibly see

:27:29. > :27:33.his grip at loose bid and that is one of the biggest advancements in

:27:33. > :27:38.F1, not that engines are relatively stable with power but the

:27:38. > :27:41.aerodynamic performance at loose bid has improved so much that these cars

:27:41. > :27:47.really have to hustle everywhere. has improved so much that these cars

:27:47. > :27:56.Just slightly over the kerb to come out that chicane and nice and tidy.

:27:56. > :27:58.He is running absolutely to the white lines but he has not

:27:58. > :28:02.He is running absolutely to the overstepping the mark too much.

:28:02. > :28:12.Variante Ascari was his bugbear lustre. -- last year. A couple of

:28:12. > :28:18.tenths down on his first sector, Ricciardo. This last sector has been

:28:18. > :28:25.difficult for him relative to Sebastian Vettel. See just how clean

:28:25. > :28:29.he is at Parabolica. Into the apex nicely and then that long exit. The

:28:29. > :28:34.car gripping all the way through and delivers the horsepower. He cuts to

:28:34. > :28:40.the inside, favoured by some, and just a fraction slower than Fernando

:28:40. > :28:42.Alonso but Sebastian Vettel has been consistently quicker than Mark

:28:43. > :28:49.Webber. On-board with Daniel Ricciardo. It is see Toro Rosso

:28:49. > :28:58.crossing the line. Faster than Rosberg and Felipe Massa. He has a

:28:58. > :29:03.very rapid Formula one car today. TEAM RADIO: we have to burn the

:29:03. > :29:08.fuel. We have enough for a second go. Once again, Sebastian Vettel is

:29:08. > :29:15.faster than anyone else. Mark Webber has got that gap dine. It is near

:29:15. > :29:25.three tenths. But again, he shows he can always get more speed. -- down.

:29:25. > :29:31.He seems to just love this circuit. He has real affection for it. And we

:29:31. > :29:35.are in the scrap for the top ten with under two minutes. In the

:29:35. > :29:39.drops, both Force India cars, McLaren with Perez and Grosjean,

:29:39. > :29:43.Maldonado and Lewis Hamilton currently in that position but that

:29:43. > :29:48.will not be for long. Hamilton has not failed to get into the top ten

:29:48. > :29:51.at all this year. And it is a very long time since he failed to do

:29:51. > :29:58.that. That looked a little bit wild? Unusual. His time is up. Very quick.

:29:59. > :30:11.Uncharacteristic wild moment for Lewis Hamilton.

:30:11. > :30:20.Should pick up a nice tow from Martin in front of him. Let's see

:30:21. > :30:28.what the split time is like. Hamilton is up. He is not up on the

:30:28. > :30:34.fastest. A lot of traffic around. Perez is trying to get a last bit of

:30:34. > :30:37.heat into his tyres. When you open the lab, you have got a long

:30:37. > :30:46.straight. Then you barrel into the first corner. As we said earlier,

:30:46. > :30:51.from over 120 mph down to 50 mph, it is critical that the driver is

:30:51. > :30:55.confident on the brakes. Rosberg should be safe. But this is

:30:55. > :31:01.not enough for Hamilton. He needs more performance. Ricciardo has just

:31:01. > :31:08.set the fastest first sector of anybody. Have they got enough

:31:09. > :31:19.performance in the Force India? They did well to get in the top 16. Not

:31:19. > :31:24.as wild as Hamilton on the X it. But an indication that maybe the grip

:31:24. > :31:28.levels have changed. It will evolve during the session as

:31:28. > :31:30.more and more rubber goes down. The chequered flag is now out. It is now

:31:30. > :31:52.or never. Hulkenberg has done well. Paul di Resta you are watching.

:31:52. > :31:57.Ricciardo has gone across the line. Hulkenberg has improved the game. He

:31:57. > :32:09.is up to fifth. -- has improved again. Perez has got into the top

:32:09. > :32:14.ten. Grosjean, is he going to make it? No, he fails to get into the top

:32:14. > :32:24.ten. Raikkonen is only just in there. Button is up to seventh.

:32:24. > :32:29.Felipe Massa goes into seven now. Raikkonen is out! Both Lotus cars

:32:29. > :32:34.are out of qualifying in the second segment. We are just waiting for

:32:34. > :32:40.Hamilton. That was Rosberg. Hamilton is in the pits. It is all over for

:32:40. > :32:49.Hamilton as well. My good. What they went -- way to end his sequence of

:32:49. > :32:53.pole positions. He has failed on this occasion to get into Q3. The

:32:53. > :33:01.sequence of pole positions has come to an end. Looking at Nico Rosberg

:33:01. > :33:04.here. That was his moment. The thing that was interesting with

:33:04. > :33:10.Hamilton, but was significantly slower than he managed in the

:33:10. > :33:15.practice session. -- that was significantly slower. This

:33:15. > :33:20.appointment for Mercedes. Rosberg I think we'll be pleased with his

:33:20. > :33:26.comeback from missing most of the practice session.

:33:27. > :33:36.The Raikkonen flags are flying but he is not in the top ten. Grosjean

:33:36. > :33:42.is 13. Di Resta is 16th. A big shock for the man who took pole position

:33:42. > :33:45.here 12 months ago. Lewis Hamilton is out of qualifying at Monza. He

:33:45. > :33:51.marches out of the Mercedes pit garage. His win might have come with

:33:51. > :33:57.McLaren last year, but this year, with McLaren -- Mercedes, he

:33:57. > :34:05.sequence of pole positions has come to an end. What a shock that

:34:06. > :34:12.Hulkenberg should be in the top ten and Hamilton isn't.

:34:12. > :34:19.It is the first time he has not made anything but Q3.

:34:19. > :34:30.That is a surprise. Both below does cars are out. Kimi Raikkonen is in

:34:30. > :34:36.the knockout zone. -- both the Lotus cars are out.

:34:36. > :34:45.What a shocker. We knew Q2 would be exciting. Hamilton must be

:34:45. > :34:48.disappointed. Something must have gone wrong. I

:34:48. > :34:52.didn't think he would get pole position, but outside the final

:34:53. > :34:59.qualifying, it doesn't even think about. -- bear thinking about. There

:34:59. > :35:04.will be an explanation. There may have been something on the floor

:35:04. > :35:08.plan. Something may have flown off. It disturbs the mind. If the car is

:35:08. > :35:13.not responding, you are going to lose the time.

:35:13. > :35:20.This is on board with him. It looked like he was hurling the Mercedes

:35:20. > :35:29.around the track. Drivers like to say, with Sutil

:35:29. > :35:35.ahead of him are not being quick, it distorts the mind. People want to

:35:35. > :35:45.see the whole picture. He can't see it there. We saw him go slightly off

:35:45. > :35:52.on the Parabolica. We thought it would be OK.

:35:52. > :35:58.That was what caused the problems. When the car slides away from you,

:35:58. > :36:03.it just does come back. We can talk to Christian Horner now.

:36:03. > :36:14.It is all going very well, isn't it? It has been a positive Q1 and Q2

:36:14. > :36:23.so far. The next one is important. How is Mark Webber looking? No issue

:36:23. > :36:25.at all. Do you expect Felipe Massa and Alonso to work together to get

:36:25. > :36:32.at all. Do you expect Felipe Massa this pole position?

:36:32. > :36:39.I am pretty sure. Felipe Massa is doing his bit on

:36:39. > :36:41.giving Fernando 80. It is just as easy to mess it up. -- giving

:36:41. > :36:54.Fernando eight home. I think there's a big chance of

:36:54. > :36:58.messing it up so they are better off going out and doing their own thing.

:36:58. > :37:04.They are unlikely to hope each other anyway!

:37:04. > :37:09.Good luck in Q3. Going back to the Lewis Hamilton story, we can have a

:37:09. > :37:14.look at this image in Parabolica. That is Sutil, who looks like he is

:37:14. > :37:20.impeding him. On that shot, there's no doubt about

:37:20. > :37:27.that. I'm sure he will have a little visit to the stewards.

:37:27. > :37:32.There he is. They used to be the best of buddies. Sutil has said some

:37:32. > :37:34.strange things about Lewis. I am sure there is some bad blood

:37:34. > :37:47.there. You have got to take your hat off to

:37:47. > :37:53.Nico Rosberg. Absolutely. He is the quiet one. We

:37:53. > :38:00.are always pumping up all the pole positions. The person who started

:38:00. > :38:06.this was Rosberg. He had been a remarkably good team-mate.

:38:06. > :38:14.So disappointing. It is the first time you have not qualified in the

:38:14. > :38:20.top ten since 2010. What happened? Not much, really. I just drove like

:38:20. > :38:25.an idiot. That was the worst I have driven for a long time. I messed up

:38:25. > :38:29.for the team. I am sorry for the team.

:38:29. > :38:40.Big Adrian Sutil in PD or the final lap? -- impede you. Yes. Why are you

:38:40. > :38:48.so hard on yourself? I just didn't drive well. There is

:38:48. > :38:55.not much more to say. I was cooking in Q1. I don't know.

:38:55. > :38:59.What amends can you make tomorrow? You're not with you right off the

:38:59. > :39:05.whole weekend. I will do what I can from where I

:39:05. > :39:10.am. At it is going to be tough. Wow. Strong words. Destiny

:39:10. > :39:12.disappointed with himself as well as what has happened. Let's go to the

:39:12. > :39:24.commentary box. BEN EDWARDS: We are looking at a

:39:24. > :39:30.replay of the impeding moment. It is not often you hear a top start

:39:30. > :39:36.taking full responsibility, David. It is great. I think he has been too

:39:36. > :39:40.hard on himself. He is a quality driver.

:39:40. > :39:45.He has had a great start to the season. It is great that he is so

:39:45. > :39:51.open, but I fear for him when he is so hard on himself. He doesn't need

:39:51. > :40:05.to expose himself quite as much in that situation. Let's hope he gets

:40:05. > :40:11.his head together and bounces back. Sergio Perez, lasted, he qualified

:40:11. > :40:18.15th or 16th and he came back to Sergio Perez, lasted, he qualified

:40:18. > :40:23.second position. -- last year. He got through some traffic. Hamilton

:40:23. > :40:33.can do the same tomorrow. Why beat yourself up so much? It is over.

:40:33. > :40:39.Perez was 12. That is exactly where Hamilton will be tomorrow. He is not

:40:39. > :40:44.in the top ten. We are now into the top ten shoot out, as it were.

:40:44. > :40:51.Vettel is looking good. A few surprises in there. We have got both

:40:51. > :40:58.of the Toro Rossos in there. We could see some interesting

:40:58. > :41:03.situations. I think there's probably a few

:41:03. > :41:09.tenths of a second. You can do it perfectly done the main straight --

:41:09. > :41:19.down the main straight, that is what you want to do. If they get it

:41:19. > :41:29.right, it could be interesting. It was interesting in the last

:41:29. > :41:35.session. What should be better? The closer it is, the quicker it

:41:35. > :41:41.will be. You don't want to go to close through the fast corners. If

:41:41. > :41:49.you are far enough back, it will not affect the corners.

:41:49. > :41:57.One of the most important things is getting...

:41:57. > :42:11.I'm sure that Alonzo -- Alonso is urging Felipe Massa to get the right

:42:11. > :42:22.distance away. We have already seen a 1: 23.9. We will see how it goes.

:42:22. > :42:27.The Ferrari flags are flying. Can they deliver? Can teamwork to be --

:42:27. > :42:38.be to the benefit of the national team. Sebastian Vettel is out on

:42:38. > :42:47.circuit. So are the likes of Sergio Perez and Jenson Button. There is a

:42:47. > :42:53.turnaround in fortunes. A different configuration on the era

:42:53. > :43:04.set up around you, -- aerobic set up around you, it can make a

:43:04. > :43:10.difference. That was a good lap. It was only a

:43:10. > :43:18.minuscule amount of what Vettel did in the fastest lap of Q2. A few more

:43:18. > :43:30.horsepower, it helps to punch a hole in the air. Felipe Massa is running

:43:30. > :43:35.in front. He is certainly playing the team game at the moment. If

:43:35. > :43:39.Ferrari changed riders next year, I wonder whether a new driver would be

:43:39. > :43:52.Ferrari changed riders next year, I such a good team driver. Felipe

:43:52. > :44:03.Massa is matching Alonso. Let's see how it plays out.

:44:03. > :44:10.Here is what Sebastian Vettel can do on his own. Let's take a look at the

:44:10. > :44:16.lap time. Is he going to beat Mark Webber straightaway? Yes, he is.

:44:16. > :44:24.Interestingly, it is all about the last sector. When it comes to

:44:24. > :44:27.Parabolica, he seems to be able to find the right line and have the

:44:27. > :44:36.confidence to flick it down two gears and get back on the power.

:44:36. > :44:43.Rosberg has established quite a slow time. He did not do a proper attempt

:44:44. > :44:47.and he hasn't got as many tyres available so he is saving his run

:44:47. > :44:55.for the final part. No times from Jenson Button, Jean-Eric Vergne,

:44:55. > :44:58.Hamilton and Hulkenberg. 4.5 minutes remaining. Sebastian Vettel, on a

:44:58. > :45:04.Hamilton and Hulkenberg. 4.5 minutes slow lap but I presume he will be

:45:04. > :45:11.coming back to the pits. Through the trees. I wonder how close this will

:45:11. > :45:16.be. Certainly, the babble to get onto that front row, it looks like

:45:16. > :45:20.Sebastian Vettel might sort out pole position but who will be with him?

:45:20. > :45:26.Looking at the backend, Hulkenberg, Perez, will be run or just try to

:45:26. > :45:31.put themselves in a situation where they can start on prime tyres? More

:45:31. > :45:36.resilient and slower but they will be heavy with fuel. Very different

:45:36. > :45:41.but recesses. Have you got a chance at pole position or are you just

:45:41. > :45:45.grateful to be in the top ten and thinking about digging up some

:45:46. > :45:51.points? Both Toro Rosso cars in the top ten, next year 's Red Bull

:45:51. > :46:00.driver. Let us see how he copes with the pressure in Q3. He wants to get

:46:00. > :46:03.as far up the grid as he can. He has had some good qualifying

:46:03. > :46:06.performances this year and has generally been better than his

:46:06. > :46:13.team-mate. His best position was in Germany, sixth place. That is a very

:46:13. > :46:19.good first sector. That will have cost him a little bit of time and

:46:19. > :46:24.you have that feeling going into Curva di Lesmos, can he commit but

:46:24. > :46:31.the same aggression? Tidier than he was. Just one tenth down in the

:46:31. > :46:34.first sector. It is keep an eye on this old banking, historic racetrack

:46:34. > :46:40.first sector. It is keep an eye on rising up into the braking zone.

:46:40. > :46:50.Looking tidy and smooth. Watch the exit. He has lost a lot of time.

:46:50. > :47:00.That little mistake has cost him time. 1:20 4.2 previously. That will

:47:00. > :47:09.not be matched. He comes over the line. 24.5. Behind Alonso but at the

:47:09. > :47:12.moment, a head of Felipe Massa and that would be a major achievement if

:47:12. > :47:20.he could qualify ahead of the other lorry. But we also have several

:47:20. > :47:24.other cars to establish. Sebastian Vettel has another opportunity as

:47:24. > :47:31.Perez and Jenson Button exit. Both McLaren cars on the track. Sebastian

:47:31. > :47:36.Vettel, pulled position in 2008 in those terrible conditions of that

:47:36. > :47:42.weekend, pouring rain. His first ever pole position. Let us see if he

:47:42. > :47:55.can repeat that. On-board with Nico Rosberg. Cautious from that first

:47:55. > :48:02.chicane. This is just to get himself wind up into the preparation for

:48:02. > :48:08.being a fairly lowly mode at this stage, weaving around and checking

:48:08. > :48:13.mirrors. He has the space. Hulkenberg ahead of him. We can see

:48:13. > :48:23.him through the distance, in that run down. Mark Webber following

:48:23. > :48:28.Jean-Eric Vergne. TEAM RADIO: OK, let us try to stay with Felipe

:48:28. > :48:31.Massa. Ferrari trying to use the same technique. Always Fernando

:48:31. > :48:37.Alonso behind Felipe Massa. It looks same technique. Always Fernando

:48:37. > :48:42.like he is too far back to get any big benefit. He is the same distance

:48:42. > :48:51.behind as Felipe Massa is to Mark Webber. This is the moment. Too

:48:51. > :48:54.fast? He is not happy about that. Once you have committed to releasing

:48:54. > :49:02.in that last part to the chequered flag, you cannot suddenly press a

:49:02. > :49:06.button and go even faster. Just a little bit frustrated. Sebastian

:49:07. > :49:14.Vettel and Mark Webber have the best chance in that front row, they are

:49:14. > :49:21.in that zone. Fernando Alonso had a big slide. Lots of cars struggling

:49:21. > :49:29.for traction. And the chequered flag comes out. It is this lap that

:49:29. > :49:34.clients for everybody. He is slower, Fernando Alonso, in the first

:49:34. > :49:39.sector. Mark Webber has gone fastest of all in the middle sector. Mark

:49:39. > :49:48.Webber has never had pole position here. Sebastian Vettel faster than

:49:48. > :49:56.anyone but only by a fraction. Could be well enough -- could be enough to

:49:56. > :50:02.take pole position. And Mark Webber crosses the line and does not go

:50:02. > :50:08.second force -- does not go first. Fernando Alonso has been

:50:08. > :50:15.outqualified by Felipe Massa. That did not work at all. What about

:50:15. > :50:25.Rosberg? Hulkenberg goes third! I never saw that coming! Amazing from

:50:25. > :50:29.Hulkenberg. He has outqualified both Ferrari cars after a season when

:50:29. > :50:41.they have even struggled to get into the top ten. I have no idea how they

:50:41. > :50:48.manage that. One: 23 .7. Taking his first pole position at Monza. His

:50:48. > :50:59.40th of his career. And the 50th ever for Red Bull. One, too. That is

:50:59. > :51:06.their 20th. And they have not had one since Australia and the start of

:51:06. > :51:11.the year. Sebastian Vettel has been supreme so far all the way through

:51:11. > :51:18.his practice sessions. Can anyone stop him? Nico Hulkenberg, he has

:51:18. > :51:24.qualified third, behind Red Bull. Let us see what happened. He gets

:51:24. > :51:33.some oversteer, we'll onto the grass and bodywork, braking. Under

:51:33. > :51:42.pressure, makes a mistake. And Sebastian Vettel has outqualified

:51:42. > :51:49.all of them. Another pole position. TEAM RADIO: OK, good job. Brief

:51:49. > :51:53.celebration. We always could see that he was going to be on pole

:51:53. > :51:59.position but what an achievement for Red Bull. Mark Webber 's best ever

:51:59. > :52:05.qualifying performance here. Christian Horner joins us.

:52:05. > :52:09.Congratulations. That went to plan? That was a fantastic performance

:52:09. > :52:14.with both drivers on the front row. Sebastian did not need to complete

:52:14. > :52:18.that last lap but fantastic to have both cars on the front row for the

:52:18. > :52:25.Italian Grand Prix. Could not have asked for more. Your 50th pole

:52:25. > :52:31.position. It has not taken long. It has been a great run? To get the

:52:31. > :52:37.50th pole position is testimony to all the hard work that goes behind

:52:37. > :52:41.the scenes back in Milton Keynes and all other people track-side. It is a

:52:41. > :52:48.great team effort. Many congratulations. You will want to

:52:48. > :52:54.catch up with your drivers. Nico Hulkenberg has put his Sauber third.

:52:55. > :52:59.He has had one pole position in Brazil when he was driving for

:52:59. > :53:06.Williams in 2010. But it is their highest starting position since Nick

:53:06. > :53:11.Hyde felled was third in 2006. And when BMW was involved. Sebastian

:53:11. > :53:17.Vettel has clinched that pole position. His fourth of the season,

:53:17. > :53:21.one behind Lewis Hamilton, who still has more than anyone else this

:53:21. > :53:25.year. Still Red Bull and Mercedes, the only two teams who have managed

:53:25. > :53:30.to take pole position this year. Dominant display, in contrast to

:53:30. > :53:34.last year. They have learned their lesson of being able to run their

:53:35. > :53:40.car with more downforce. Picking up on Hulkenberg, they have not been

:53:40. > :53:46.any higher than 10th place so where did that come from? ! Look at that

:53:46. > :53:51.smile! Huge smile on the face of Nico Hulkenberg. And a pat on the

:53:51. > :53:58.back for Daniel Ricciardo, his team-mate next year. McLaren, they

:53:58. > :54:13.just lost out on that final part. Carries out qualifying Jenson

:54:13. > :54:19.Button. -- Perez. Sebastian Vettel 's margin was too tense and a

:54:19. > :54:28.second. Mark Webber managed to close that gap. Interesting to note that

:54:28. > :54:35.Ricciardo and Gutierrez were the fastest on a straight line

:54:35. > :54:42.provisionally, this is how they will line up, barring any penalties.

:54:42. > :54:43.Stunning third place for Hulkenberg, perhaps bidding for Ferrari next

:54:43. > :54:58.year. Lewis Hamilton will have to come

:54:58. > :55:02.from 12th place. Perez came from their and finished in second place.

:55:02. > :55:06.Sauber have something special in their relationship with this track.

:55:06. > :55:11.It worked well last year and this time it has worked in qualifying.

:55:11. > :55:23.Outside the top 12... It has been all about Red Bull this

:55:23. > :55:43.year. Nico Hulkenberg! He was absolutely

:55:43. > :55:47.sensational in that session, wasn't he what carrots did they dangle in

:55:47. > :55:52.front of him? It might even have been from Ferrari. It has been well

:55:52. > :56:01.talked about that and ex-cyber driver will be the team-mate of

:56:01. > :56:04.Fernando Alonso next. -- Sauber. It could even be fully they must

:56:04. > :56:11.himself and Hulkenberg, so it looks like it is one of those. What are

:56:11. > :56:16.the chances? I still think it is Kimi Raikkonen but you never know.

:56:16. > :56:20.Hulkenberg has made a very big statement and if he has a very good

:56:20. > :56:25.race tomorrow and Felipe Massa does not do a good job, he is in the

:56:25. > :56:36.frame. Perez last year, he went from 12th place to come in second place.

:56:36. > :56:41.Where did that come from? He was 12 finished with macro 12 quickest on

:56:41. > :56:47.final practice. We could not believe it. We were hoping that we could

:56:47. > :56:52.fight and get further up but this was fantastic. That was a great lap?

:56:53. > :56:58.He said himself it was the perfect lap and he did a great job. How

:56:58. > :57:03.important is this? You are going through some sticky times? It gives

:57:03. > :57:06.us the kind of boost that we need and we have to keep in mind that

:57:06. > :57:13.this is just qualifying and what really matters is tomorrow and last

:57:13. > :57:17.year we ended up well so we hope we can get a good result tomorrow. Give

:57:17. > :57:22.us some thoughts. What can you achieve tomorrow? Difficult to say.

:57:22. > :57:25.We know the car is not as competitive as it was last year but

:57:25. > :57:34.seeing what Nico Hulkenberg can make of this, there is a lot in this.

:57:34. > :57:40.Exciting times. It'll be interesting to see what he can do. Let us go

:57:40. > :57:47.back, Q2, lots of hairy moments. Jean-Eric Vergne had one around the

:57:48. > :57:53.Parabolica? You know, he had this and the previous one but this is a

:57:53. > :57:59.remarkable thing. There is absolutely no grip. You must keep

:57:59. > :58:04.both wheels on the front. And he was doing everything to make sure that

:58:04. > :58:08.he kept the power down but he got out of trouble. Let us hear from his

:58:08. > :58:16.team-mate. The man of the moment. Daniel Ricciardo. What did you make

:58:16. > :58:22.of that session? It was quite good, we have to be happy. And dry

:58:22. > :58:28.conditions, so it is a first-time we have done this in dry conditions and

:58:28. > :58:36.I am pretty pleased. It looks like top five throughout but anyway, we

:58:36. > :58:43.have to be happy with top seven. I am pleased and hopefully we will --

:58:43. > :58:53.we will be on the race pace tomorrow. Both McLaren through.

:58:53. > :59:03.Let's hear from Jenson Button. Were you expecting better? But really,

:59:03. > :59:09.no. -- not really. We ran a very similar time. It is a pity because

:59:09. > :59:14.every did not run, it would have paid our options more open tomorrow.

:59:14. > :59:28.But it is what it is and we will do what we have. I think we all realise

:59:28. > :59:35.that. Any chance of progressing tomorrow? Lock or strategy? I do not

:59:35. > :59:38.know where we stand in terms of pace but it will be interesting to see

:59:38. > :59:43.where that is. Clean side of the grid, it is always fun and chaotic.

:59:43. > :59:51.where that is. Clean side of the I am looking forward to tomorrow.

:59:51. > :59:58.The conditions could be different tomorrow. They expect rain tomorrow.

:59:58. > :00:02.We know what a rain master he is. That is the thing, it mixes it up

:00:02. > :00:08.and it makes it exciting. Usually, races here are exciting in the

:00:08. > :00:14.drive. But it would be better in the rain. Now let's get the thoughts of

:00:15. > :00:18.the top three. Sebastian, you have got a long

:00:18. > :00:25.history here. How much do you love this place?

:00:25. > :00:30.It is a special place. The memories of 2008 are great. I had another

:00:30. > :00:34.victory in 2011. I think the first victory is always special. This

:00:34. > :00:41.weekend, the car was fantastic so far. I think it was better than we

:00:41. > :00:46.could expect. We had a really strong pace yesterday. We were able to take

:00:46. > :00:54.that into the qualifying today. Two good runs in the end. In the end, it

:00:54. > :00:57.was a bit of a surprise to have both cards in the front row in a place

:00:57. > :01:02.where, historically, we have had bad years. Yeah, this year seems to have

:01:03. > :01:07.worked well. Hopefully we will have a good race from where we start

:01:07. > :01:14.tomorrow. How much have you targeted the

:01:14. > :01:18.performance here? We try to have the optimum every

:01:18. > :01:25.year. Some years we are close, other years we are far away. This year we

:01:25. > :01:31.are in a strong position. We can match other cars down the straight.

:01:31. > :01:38.In corners, we have a strong car. It is a nice place, a nice track. It is

:01:38. > :01:46.challenging to get the movement right. If you try to often to go

:01:46. > :01:52.over the limit, there is a big penalty. It was a tough session but

:01:52. > :01:57.we managed to get through and get a great result.

:01:57. > :02:02.Mark, your best qualifying position here. Hopefully you are looking to

:02:02. > :02:11.follow it up with a good result as well. Exactly.

:02:11. > :02:18.I said before the session that I was looking for a qualifying PB. I am

:02:18. > :02:24.happy with qualifying, to be up there. It took the old boy a while

:02:24. > :02:33.to get ready for Q1, but I got there in the end. Jean-Eric Vergne went

:02:33. > :02:34.off the Parabolica on the last corner. I didn't know if he had

:02:34. > :02:38.off the Parabolica on the last dropped a wheel or he was continuing

:02:38. > :02:45.on the circuit. I can see with the dust. When he got further around my

:02:45. > :02:52.could see was in the gravel. -- I could see he was in the gravel. We

:02:52. > :03:04.have a few different people up here, which is good. It is a mixed up

:03:04. > :03:07.session, which is good at Monza. Looking at... This is your last

:03:07. > :03:17.European Grand Prix. Is this an emotional moment for you?

:03:17. > :03:20.Not really. I think Brazil will be more emotional. If I have got the

:03:20. > :03:26.tissues out, I have made the wrong decision. I'm just looking for a

:03:26. > :03:33.clean weekend to get some good results in the future. I'm not

:03:33. > :03:38.retiring. A lot of people are stopping Formula One, but a lot of

:03:38. > :03:44.people can watch me next year in some other races.

:03:44. > :03:53.Thank you. Nico, whether that come from? -- where did that come from? I

:03:53. > :03:57.don't know. Yesterday, we struggled a lot with the car. We were trying

:03:57. > :04:04.different bits and bobs. We did a great job to turn the car

:04:05. > :04:15.around. In Q1, Q2 and Q3, the car just got better.

:04:15. > :04:33.provisional grid. It is a Red Bull locked out. Vettel and Mark Webber

:04:33. > :04:43.on the front row. Alonso is fifth. The Toro Rosso is seventh. Jenson

:04:43. > :04:51.Button goes in ninth. Kimi Raikkonen doesn't make it through to Q3. Zero

:04:51. > :05:05.Romain Grosjean. -- nor does remain Grosjean.

:05:05. > :05:15.David has scooted down from the commentary box to join us. That was

:05:15. > :05:21.quite eventful, wasn't it? It was. Where did that lap from Hulkenberg

:05:21. > :05:28.come from? His boss went in and told him, just do one lap. He was going

:05:28. > :05:31.to do two. I'm sure the team appreciated that. Adding risk of

:05:31. > :05:41.spreading rumours that I don't know for sure -- at the risk of spreading

:05:41. > :05:45.rumours, I heard the radio from Alonso was him telling the team they

:05:46. > :05:59.were stupid. He was frustrated that Felipe Massa and Alonso were not

:06:00. > :06:06.able to play their gaps properly. It sounded like that. Did Ferrari

:06:06. > :06:13.mess up, then? According to Fernando Alonso, they did! He has got to know

:06:13. > :06:18.that is being played out in front of everyone. It doesn't look like the

:06:18. > :06:27.warrior who keeps tweeting all these amazing fighting lines is entirely

:06:27. > :06:30.settled. Come on, David, he was really vociferous. He said things

:06:30. > :06:37.about this team that were Sagbo offences. The only way he held onto

:06:37. > :06:43.his place is because he was so good. But he got a rap across the

:06:43. > :06:48.president. The German told him, nobody, absolutely nobody, is as big

:06:48. > :06:56.as the team. I'm surprised that Alonso has come out with this. Where

:06:56. > :07:02.do they go from here, then? Maybe he will have a sabbatical next

:07:02. > :07:07.year. Let's get the thoughts of his team-mate, Felipe Massa.

:07:07. > :07:14.To hear Fernando on his radio saying that you were too fast probably gave

:07:14. > :07:21.them a smile out there. The situation is getting better!

:07:21. > :07:28.Tell us about your qualifying. You have out qualified Fernando.

:07:28. > :07:43.I think I did a very good lap. Maybe I lost a bit of the Askari. It was a

:07:43. > :07:48.good lap. I try to use the best I could from the car. Tomorrow is the

:07:48. > :07:58.race. Let's concentrate on the race tomorrow. We know the guy in front

:07:58. > :08:03.is very quick. It will be fantastic to have a great race tomorrow.

:08:03. > :08:09.And you wouldn't mind if Fernando finished behind you tomorrow.

:08:09. > :08:14.He is fighting for the championship. I'm not fighting. Whatever is

:08:14. > :08:19.important for him, I will be inside. I don't fit Quinney to concentrate

:08:19. > :08:26.on that. We need to concentrate on doing the best we can.

:08:26. > :08:30.So, he goes off the second row. There is a story unfolding here.

:08:30. > :08:33.Apparently, Fernando walked into the press conference and walked out

:08:33. > :08:38.again, not wanting to talk to anybody. Not a happy boy. We might

:08:38. > :08:42.be watching something unfold here that we were not expecting.

:08:42. > :08:47.Certain journalists believed he could look for a sabbatical, just

:08:47. > :08:51.like Raikkonen did. Perhaps it is the pressure off things aren't

:08:51. > :08:55.happening. I know I Alonso would like Felipe Massa in the team. Now

:08:55. > :09:04.he knows he might not be in the team. There might be a lot of people

:09:04. > :09:10.wanting things to happen. We expect you, obviously, to go and unearth

:09:10. > :09:14.what is fact and what is fiction. This was special from Sebastian

:09:14. > :09:18.Vettel. He still has to go out and deliver

:09:18. > :09:33.in the last part of qualifying. The confidence is there. It's perfect in

:09:33. > :09:37.the first chicane. Running down under braking into the second

:09:37. > :09:42.chicane. A little lock up there as he approaches the apex of the

:09:42. > :09:54.corner. But otherwise he positions the car nicely. He uses all of the

:09:54. > :09:58.artificial turf on the exit. Then he runs down underneath the old

:09:58. > :10:02.circuit. We can see the banking. You can feel the nostalgia as you then

:10:02. > :10:10.rise up into Askari. Let's listen to him. Going through the gears, flat

:10:10. > :10:14.out, and as I said earlier really take the of least resistance. This

:10:15. > :10:21.is the key to his lap. This is where he is able to gain the time. Listen

:10:21. > :10:29.here. He commits to the power once. That is where you can carry the

:10:29. > :10:35.speed out. He goes across the line. Once again the pole position.

:10:35. > :10:46.legend, John Surtees. He's the only man to win on two Wales and indeed

:10:46. > :10:51.four. In 1959, you came here and you won the 350 race and the 500 race.

:10:51. > :10:57.It means you did six out of six and seven out of seven.

:10:57. > :11:03.It was also my last race on a motorcycle in 1960. In between

:11:03. > :11:07.fitting in a few races for Colin Chapman in Formula One, I was also

:11:07. > :11:14.doing the World Championships. I was able to cap it in 1960 with the 300

:11:14. > :11:19.and 500 championship. I only won the 500 because the exhaust fell off the

:11:19. > :11:25.350. There is an admission for you!

:11:25. > :11:37.There's a picture of you driving a Honda around here near my hotel.

:11:37. > :11:50.I went to Honda at the start of 1967. The Honda car at that time was

:11:50. > :11:56.about 210 overweight. If an engine that was designed along alpha male

:11:56. > :12:02.lines from the 1930s. -- it had an engine. It had a tremendous will to

:12:02. > :12:08.do things. We built the Honda I -- Honda in about six weeks. It was

:12:08. > :12:20.based on the Lola Indianapolis car. We brought it here. We won the race.

:12:20. > :12:26.I'm going to bring you up to date. What you're doing is bringing on

:12:27. > :12:30.British talent. Is there going to be five British riders on the grid next

:12:30. > :12:37.year? The sad thing is, of course, is it

:12:37. > :12:42.depends on people like racing steps and rental to come along and bring

:12:42. > :12:49.the youngsters through. -- and Red Bull. There is talent all the time.

:12:49. > :12:57.Suddenly you are presented with enormous demands for megabucks. But

:12:57. > :13:05.I had a good chat with James after the event. We were talking about my

:13:05. > :13:12.time and the importance here of getting out the corners because it

:13:12. > :13:18.controls the speed. If you come out at 100 revs faster, it is 250 revs

:13:18. > :13:25.further up there. All these things were so important. Yes, I think

:13:25. > :13:33.there's opportunities. He has shown himself first time out. He had done

:13:33. > :13:43.some testing, but very little. He acquitted himself well. He found the

:13:43. > :13:48.problem of Formula One downforce, meaning early power application.

:13:48. > :13:52.They have to learn this. John Surtees, an aptly pleasure to

:13:52. > :13:58.have your company. We hope to catch up with you later on. -- an absolute

:13:58. > :14:11.pleasure. I think we can grab hold of Christian. He is coming to have a

:14:11. > :14:17.chat with us. Christian Horner, perfect day? Looking good all

:14:17. > :14:21.weekend and you turned this into what you wanted? It has been a

:14:21. > :14:23.fantastic day for the team to get those cars on the front row, our

:14:23. > :14:29.50th pole position and it has been a those cars on the front row, our

:14:29. > :14:37.dream day. It is quickly here from Sebastian, talking earlier. Stunning

:14:37. > :14:42.pole position and a very strong weekend generally? Very happy,

:14:42. > :14:46.obviously. It's Kerry, the performance yesterday, and it was a

:14:46. > :14:53.big surprise. We had median downforce but we did not expect to

:14:53. > :15:00.be that strong, both cars, but is a very big surprise. Why? Hard work

:15:00. > :15:07.from everyone in the team. The boys in the factory, we have had years

:15:07. > :15:10.with a great car but one that was not very competitive with low

:15:10. > :15:16.downforce so in that regard we did our homework and this circuit has

:15:16. > :15:21.been up and down for DOS and it seems that this year, more up so

:15:21. > :15:26.far. But yes, I am just looking forward to the race tomorrow. The

:15:26. > :15:33.car feels great and we shall see what we can do. Sebastian looking

:15:33. > :15:35.forward to tomorrow. Are you? It is the best possible place to be

:15:35. > :15:41.starting from. Who knows what the weather will do? There is supposed

:15:41. > :15:48.to be rain towards the bottom end of the race but it is marvellous to be

:15:48. > :15:51.starting on first and second. Should you finish tomorrow like you

:15:51. > :15:57.qualify, is at the end of the Constructors' champions? There are

:15:57. > :16:04.still 200 points available. 75 after tomorrow. Our focus is one step at a

:16:05. > :16:06.time and this is a track that we really did not expect to be doing

:16:06. > :16:12.time and this is a track that we this at. Now we must convert these

:16:12. > :16:17.great grid positions into points. Mark Hudson issues getting off the

:16:17. > :16:22.line and we know they're not the best of friends but what can you do

:16:22. > :16:27.to make sure the team can run that into the first corner and keep out

:16:27. > :16:30.of trouble? Very diplomatically but! Hopefully both of them can get a

:16:30. > :16:34.very good start but they are professionals, they will race each

:16:34. > :16:38.other hard but they both know they are driving for the team and it is

:16:38. > :16:43.not just about those two. We have Ferrari behind us, Lewis Hamilton

:16:43. > :16:48.will be looking to come through and Hulkenberg is out of position. We

:16:48. > :16:52.have been stuck behind him before. It is a question of getting a good

:16:52. > :16:56.start and getting stuck in. You certainly did everything right

:16:56. > :17:00.today. We wish you all the very best for the race tomorrow. And we shall

:17:01. > :17:09.be back tomorrow at 12:10pm on BBC One. Same time, same place.

:17:09. > :17:11.Everything live on BBC One and BBC One HD. And 50 years of McLaren so

:17:11. > :17:32.we have something special for you. Ayrton Senna! We are putting the old

:17:33. > :17:40.gang back together. Engineer, please come here! So much faster than I

:17:40. > :17:51.remember! You need to have a good time. Some great stuff tomorrow and

:17:51. > :17:55.Fernando Alonso saying, we are geniuses, rather sarcastically! We

:17:55. > :17:59.will be with you same time, same place for the Italian Grand Prix.
