Mark, I'm "watching" the ticker now... Last year we had fastest lap time (ST) with a high 1:43 something; which by the way in this year's qualifying would be like 13th...

I'm not too sure what can explain the several second decrease in lap time. I can only assume that that they are indeed pushing hard in qualifying...

Interesting to see what happens tomorrow! I actually won't be making it due to family health issues. I'll be checking-in online though...

Oh, I show their fastest lap at 1:46:819... and 25th.
