Andre Lotterer did a fantastic job for a 1st race weekend.

Alonso's pass of the Force India around the outside in Malmandy.

DA BEST

I do that all the time in F12012 on the XBOX but I never expected to see it in (the dry) real life

Besides Ricciardo and Bottas, I picked Magnussen. Was great to see him try and hold off the others at the end in that POS Mclaren.

Caterham thinks Ericsson is doing a good job by the fact that he is heavier than Kobayashi... then how good wasn't Lotterer during this weekend then?

Ericsson weighed 69kg in Feburary before his diet according to Eurosport.

Lotterrer weighs 74Kg according to Audi, 5kg more assuming these weights have not changed (although Ericsson should be lighter)

Ericsson said to Eurosport that 3kg is 1 tenth of a second. At 5kg heavier, Lotterrer should've then been 0.166 behind Ericsson at Spa, if they were both equally skilled.

At Spa, Andre qualified 0.938 ahead of Ericsson. If you add another 0.166 to account for Andres weight, it comes to 1.104. Given that 1 tenth per 3kg is for an average circuit, and Spa is the longest circuit on the calender, it's probably closer to 1.154 the actual difference in times/ability.

This doesn't take into account that Andre has never driven the car before the Friday and weight lost by Ericsson on his diet.

And that Ericsson got passed right, left and center during his final fast lap. At least that was what he blamed his time on. :8:

That would indeed take up a lot of time, so if you look at the rest of the seasons qualifying results, Eric has outqualified Kob twice this year. I don't know the circumstances of these, so lets say that it was a legitimately better performance by Ericsson. However, not once has been within 0.166 (and is usually almost a second or more adrift) or Kob when Kob has beaten him in qualifying.

This again doesn't take into account weight loss and time gained in this.
