Despite a morning ruined by a clutch issue, Nico Rosberg defended himself quite well by securing the fifth-fastest time in the qualifying session. For Michael Schumacher, a timing issue prevented him from improving his time in the final moments of the session. Both men are counting on their race pace to gain positions.

Rather disappointing result for the Swiss team, which fails to reach Q3 for the second time in two races. A braking error for Sergio Pérez disrupted his final attempt, while Kamui Kobayashi believes that the change in temperature between yesterday and today is responsible for the drop in performance of the C31.

At the end of a well-executed qualifying session, Sebastian Vettel secured pole position in Montreal, more than three-tenths ahead of Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso, on a circuit where the gaps are relatively small. Disappointment for Michael Schumacher and Jenson Button, far off the pace in Q3, and for Kimi Räikkönen, who did not make it past Q2.

If Lewis Hamilton's day was quite successful, with the 2008 world champion topping the timesheets in both Friday sessions, Jenson Button's was more challenging. The 2009 world champion faced several issues that prevented him from running a significant portion of FP2.

If Samuel Beckett were a Red Bull engineer, he would undoubtedly have written "Waiting for the Rain". With a schedule logically disrupted by the whims of the Quebec sky, the drivers of the Austrian team noticed the absence of rain, even though they had decided to try the super soft tires from the first morning session. The car's performance seems to particularly satisfy Mark Webber.

If there's one issue that keeps resurfacing, it's the French Grand Prix at the Paul Ricard circuit. It was close to being finalized by the end of the summer of 2011, then cooled down, only to get back on track in the spring of 2012 – largely aided by a majority that stepped on the gas at the end of its mandate. It now appears to be in a more delicate phase.

Important hub of student protest, the city of Montreal will host the Canadian Formula 1 Grand Prix on June 8, 9, and 10 in a tense social context. This is an opportunity to revisit the situation and the risks looming over the event.

In the rhythm throughout the race, Sergio Pérez can curse his very poor qualifying that forced him to start at the back of the pack, on a circuit where overtaking can be counted on one hand. Kamui Kobayashi, for his part, was a victim of the collision between Schumacher and Grosjean and retired very early.

At the end of a tough session, it was Michael Schumacher who set the fastest time, ahead of Mark Webber and Nico Rosberg. The seven-time world champion will only start sixth due to his penalty in Spain, and it is therefore Mark Webber who will inherit the first place on the grid. Lewis Hamilton and Romain Grosjean will start on the second row. Vettel is only tenth while Button failed in Q2.

The main problem for McLaren drivers remains the uncertainty about the behavior of the super soft tires once the car is loaded with fuel. This situation leads Lewis Hamilton to think that the race will be uncertain in this regard.
