\u00ab Knowing one’s ignorance is the best part of knowledge, \u00bb says the Chinese proverb. On the starting grid of the 2013 Chinese Grand Prix, most drivers will indeed be fully aware that the race might hold a share of surprises for them, and that without a rock-solid strategy and intelligent tire management, their position on the starting grid could vanish as quickly as a mirage in the middle of the desert.<\/p>\n
After securing his first pole position for Mercedes, Lewis Hamilton remained among the wisest at the end of the qualifying session by not putting the cart before the horse. Indeed, at the wheel of a Lotus E21 that has already demonstrated its strengths in tire management to win – in Australia – Kimi R\u00e4ikk\u00f6nen will be well-positioned to contend for victory, as will Fernando Alonso. Qualified in third position, the Spanish fox will also undoubtedly hope to capitalize on the intrinsic qualities of the F138 to achieve his first laurels of the season.<\/p>\n
If they will obviously have to be wary of Nico Rosberg or even Felipe Massa, the three world champions at the forefront of the pack will need to keep an eye on their counterparts, Jenson Button (8th) and Sebastian Vettel (9th), who will likely have a tire advantage at the start of the race. Indeed, the former qualified at a leisurely pace with the hardest tires provided by Pirelli this weekend, while the latter chose to forfeit against the clock to have his choice of tires at the start.<\/p>\n
