Paul should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Can someone explain why the number one team has the first garage in the pit lane, and not the last.

Does a car on the pit lane have the right of way over someone who is leaving their box.

:confused:

What I don't get is why in Australia BAR and Minardi were at the start of the pits, but everywhere else they are at the end....

????????

:confused:

I don't see why they SHOULD be at the end - it would be fairer to pick names out of a hat, not base it on the previous season's Constructor's Champ. results.

i think in the present set up the teams are allocated at the start of pit lane, but when you look at all of the classes whcih choose, first pick always go for the end. Is this the FIA trying to give an advantage to BAR and Minardi? Another conspiracy theory against McLaren...ooh ahh...
