With Hammy out of the picture, no way is he going to get PP with a hevy fuel load, and he'll be lucky to finish in the points.

Sooo...I think Raikonnen might get pp, and 1rst. Magny Cours has such tight hairpins you have to wonder if this is a Ferrari track, with a premium on putting the power to the ground out of the corners, elongating the straights. Massa is not so great on greasy tracks wo traction control, and France has a very smooth racing surface. I think the short pit in and pit out may make more teams consider a 3 stopper, which may play out some interesting strategy unless Force India craps out again on track and brings out the safety car.

I say maybe Massa second, Kubica 3rd, Kovy 4th, who knows 5th maybe Alonso, and Hamilton will have the drive of his life to come in 6th or 7th.
