Mark Hughes: F1's Inside Line

"Arguably the best qualifying lap was that of Davidson"

The complexity of how a great Formula 1 qualifying lap is pulled together is always immense - even just from the driver's view, let alone the multiple layers of engineering behind it. Arguably the best qualifying lap of the Turkish weekend was that of Anthony Davidson, who succeeded in putting the Super Aguri 11th.

Sitting him down and getting him to describe it just reinforces how F1 cannot even begin to get across the fascination that lies deep within it - because interest in it is so over-subscribed that the detail invariably gets lost. There just isn't time for the participants to convey it.
