Published qualifying weights
During the Melbourne qualifying broadcast I heard Martin Brundle refer to the fact that qualifying weights, and hence fuel loads will be published post session this year. Where can these be found? On the internet anywhere?
There is nothing like this on the FIA site either... |

I've been looking for them too. Personally I'd be happy for them to remain confidential as last year; but if they are to be publsihed I want them please.

The teams certainly agreed to share them as part of the economy measures, ie if they tell each other what fuel they are carrying they won't waste money spying on each other. If they are telling each other surely they will make it public.

Thanks
I found this http://www.fia.com/public/f1_media/a...ocument_43.pdf It really does validate Brawn GP's result. I couldn't help wondering if they were light, not so! |

The EuroBrawns are surprisingly heavy.

Wow, BGP so heavy and still 1-2. Ominous! Piquet and Heidfeld super heavy, one-stop fuel load? Anyone know how many kg of fuel burnt in a lap? Maybe about 3.5 kg per lap?

I thought everyone outside the top-10 can decide their fuel load until tomorrow?

Wow. That is phenomenal pace from the Brawns. No one will touch them this weekend and I have a feeling for quite a few weekends this season.

Why the difference in weights between the two?

The only difference is Nakajima, and I can't believe that he's only carrying 7.5 kg of fuel!

Nakajimas weight was published incorrectly. It has since been fixed.
