Peter S should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Is this a fix?

A couple of people pointed this out to me today, in relation to Fernando Alonso's pole position.

Last week, Spains television coverage plu was pulled by there broadcaster to show Formula 1 on national television. Renault conveniantly stepped in to save it and paid around £3 million for TVE to show every race starting this weekend.

Spain claimed that formula is dead in there country and no tickets for the grand prix has been sold hardly, claiming they need a spanish superstar in order to attract people back to formula 1 in Spain. Suddenly up pops Alonso and puts the Renault on pole, which some are claiming is a fix due to an agreement between organizers and teams. Is this just a coincidence or a fix we may ask ourselves? This isnt the first time claims similar to this have come up.
