Japanese Grand Prix *SPOILERS*

If it rains and MS can pass then he should win....but passing has become hard @ suzuka.....doubt we will ever see a montoya-esqe overtaking manouvre into spoon ever again the way f1 is going...

it's easier to pass if it rains (IMO), because the other driver can't 'close the doors' like on a dry track

---

yeah, you've gotta be like 2 seconds a lap faster on a dry track to be able to pass (look how long raikkonen was stuck behind villeneuve at monza), but in the dry closing the door sharply would just make a mess of both cars when they hit the wall...

---

I think McLaren could still make a great race. JPM must be planning a German GP-like strategy, so I wouldn't totally take their chances off for this race. Ralf's pole was lucky, I think Button can do a better job on Sunday.

this are my predictions for the race:
-dry race:
JPM
KR
JB
FA
RS
MS
RB

-wet race:
MS
KR
JB
RS
JPM
DC
RB
FA

JB is a better racer.. in terms of he will most defo bring the car home... imo ralf is unpredictable.. JB is consistant.. but will defo not win this race.. unless BAR have found a second...

3rd could be.. but for me.. unless he has a super start and is front of second by at least 15 seconds he will be around 3rd or 4th.. behind Mclarens and Renault

hate to say it but he BAR is no way near good enough. but saying that he is showing Turkey GP pace again

"Trulli was slowing down like he wanted to have a picnic" LOL

MS
JB
FA
JPM
RS
DC
TS!
RB



Kimi, so, Massa Fernando Sebastian is faster than you. Can you confirm you understood that message?

Well, I expect that Renault has filled Fernando's fuel tank, because i'm sure that McLaren has done it to both Kimi and Montoya's cars. If so, it will be a very interesting race


TOMA!!!

would Renault have been allowed to do it during the quali session, when they could see how bad the weather was for his lap? i thought the fuel levels were locked as soon as quali starts...

kimi could well be fuelled heavy, but that would be because of his 10 place grid penalty, rather than the weather; before qualifying they probably wouldn't have been able to know the weather would affect mclaren most.

---

maybe you are right. I don't know if it is possible or not


TOMA!!!

It will be more interesting if Fernando have less fuel than both mclarens. If Fernando is Heavy like Mclarens, Fernando have nothing to do. He is 0.4-0.5 slower in equal conditions.(i think).

Can you help a desesperate fan? Our stupid state television is not broadcasting this grand prix, so i would like to ask you if there is any site where i can watch the real images (not the live timing) ...

Thanks in advance

I dont think that a site like this exist.

maybe a tv site....

i have watched a lot of cycling races via net for example

I don't think there is... well, not legally anyway.

does anybody find it funny that out of 5 races Mclaren had the chance to finish 1-2 and they didn't ,except in brzil,which is followed in Suzuka which only rained on the last four cars in qualifing,if it had rained in any of the past Qualifing,at least one Mclaren could have been saved.
