03 Jenson Button McLaren 1:38.535 0.363 30 laps
04 Nico Rosberg Mercedes 1:38.696 0.524 34 laps

Schumi back on the podium would be sweet! C'mon Mercedes AMG Petronas! Hopefully whatever adjustments they've made for better race pace will provide results tomorrow

No doubt...Alonso and Perez were amazing though! If Ferrari can get their s#*t together, maybe their season isn't lost after all.

Michael seemed to own sector 1 in qualifying, no doubt the F-duct and free use of DRS. With China's 2 long straights, who knows...maybe this track will provide enough top end to overcome their lack of cornering speed and we will see him on the front row, (hopefully) far away from Grosjean
