There were no major issues going into the Spanish Grand Prix in Barcelona. It looked like we were in for a lean racing weekend. Qualifying had me jumping for joy as I watched Vettel cross the line to take pole position. My celebrating was extremely short lived once I realized that Button had made it across the line to run his final lap with just a second to spare. Sure enough, he managed to take away the pole from Sebastian of Red Bull.
Once again, the Brawn cars finished up with a nice one – two. I have a feeling that Rubens may be getting tired of his teammate. Unfortunately, I just don’t think he can keep the pace as Jensen has been doing so well. Mark Webber managed to get on the podium with a third place win. And Massa had more trouble with his Ferrari. Running low on fuel he had to let Vettel and Alonso by, dropping him back to sixth.
