		<description><![CDATA[Not great, but no disaster. That&#8217;s the best way to sum up Lewis Hamilton&#8217;s final qualifying session of 2009. On a day when Ferrari and McLaren tried to outdo each other in appearing to remain calm under pressure (&#8216;We&#8217;re treating this like any other grand prix&#8217;. Yeah, right) it was Ferrari who won out.

While McLaren [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=sundayafternoonclub.blogs.topgear.com&blog=3888036&post=880&subd=bbctopgear&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

It&#8217;s true that the vast acreage of concrete did little to engender atmosphere as the teams packed up but there was no buzz about the place, certainly not like Fuji the week before.
