It's FIA rules, and with Todt at the helm, I wouldn't be surprised if everyone gets thrown anotehr set of softs for quali.Can't Pirreli just increase the number of tires available throughout quali? Wouldn't that alleviate the, "race started yesterday" mind set?

...and the teams would just save that for the race if they have a big enough advantage. Instead of 1 frest soft, now they'll have 2! And remember that they wouldn't mind saving 5 mins of the engine running full bore since it has to last 3 races.

How about Pirelli gives out tires for quali that must be returned and can't be used for the race, like they do with Friday tires....and the teams would just save that for the race if they have a big enough advantage.

this is the google translation of that, its a little off saying it was a woman or something but it was Eric Lux that got stabbed.
supposedly this is the 2nd largest newspaper in france so it would seem somewhat credibleThe case will make some noise in the paddock and should know of the prosecution of Adrian Sutil , the German pilot of the team Force India, has attacked and seriously wounded the businessman Luxembourg Eric Lux , co-founder of Genii capital structure team owner Lotus Renault GP, on the night of April 17 to 18 in a nightclub in Shanghai.
Those are the facts: on the evening of exciting Chinese GP, Eric Lux and a few guests to relax M1NT , a club's most renowned Shanghai company when entering Adrian Sutil and Lewis Hamilton , the latter accompanied by bodyguards . The VIP room is full, Lux offers little room for Sutil, Hamilton clan, which apparently it will show more and more unpleasant. Sutil behavior becomes even unseemly, and it visibly when asked the driver to calm down the businessman was attacked: Sutil grabs a glass of champagne and cut her throat . Lux is blood, Hamilton was immediately "extracted" from M1NT by his bodyguards. And while Sutil hastily left China by the first flight, Lux was hospitalized and forced her to ask more than 20 stitches . The shot was a nothing next to the aorta.
If the clan Sutil, extremely embarrassed, advocates appeasement today, co-owner of Lotus Renault GP does not stop there and has po rting the matter to court . The stables Lotus Renault GP Force India, arguing that it is primarily a "private matter" did not wish to make any comment. The initial statements of Lewis Hamilton, rather in favor of his friend, do not correspond with the images from surveillance cameras

I kinda agree with him. seeing Seb and Web jump out of their cars with 5 minutes to go was pretty awesome, but will get irritating if it becomes the norm.
The competition needs to be close to fix that

His statement doesn't seem to indicate he went all charlie murphy on Lux' neck, he says he inadvertently injured "somebody" lol.

I saw some episode on SPEED where he and Tanner Faust were driving some 1000hp Benz around Bavaria. Lets just say that Sutil made TF sound like Mike Rowe and look like the Brawny paper towel guy.
He's probably just ultra euro like redliner said tho.
