Bleh. Hell, who cares, he was lucky, and he needs to do more than that to change my opinion. I still say that hes @#$%&. You should support Adam Carroll, mate. hes better.

Anyway, my golden boy is leading the championship! Bring on Magny Cours, the @#$%& track in the world, I'm glad Bernie will take it out of F1 in 2009 ;)

Piquet and Vettel will probably crash into each other at the start anyways, so it wouldn't matter if they made it to turn 1.

Fun quali nevertheless. Was shocked that Rossberg got second for a while in Q2.

But as always, the underdogs are always pwned by the the lead teams.

Ferrari will win it, unless the two cars are blown to bits by lighting from the storm. Hamilton could win it if he make some good moves. Kubica will either be on podium or near it. And the Force India cars will crash through the barriers at Portier and fly off into the ocean.

And why don't any of the drivers just drift through the whole circuit. The corners are perfect for that kind of driving, and is what i believe the fastest way around the circuit. So why aren't they doing it. Are they scared of the barriers or is there somthing else?

Thankful he now has Dish DVR and SPEED channel

They have enough problems with tyre wear and degradation just driving smoothly. I would also imagine it's a lot harder as the F1 cars are more sensitive.

Heh...I can't help but agree with Neil...the 2nd seat in Renault is currently being wasted. They should get someone there that can do the team some good.

There was rain during the Porsche Supercup, not very much, but the track was clearly wet. They decided to start behind the SC :/ If even the Porsche Supercup starts behind the SC, F1 certainly won't have a standing start, or it will be postponed.


Woohoo! 100 and 90% chance of rain! :D

For a wet race it needs to rain heavily again, as it's drying rapidly. There's already a drying line in the WSBR race, and there's still 2 1/2 hours to go.

I'm hoping for a wet race just to see who really can race without TC - there'll still be no passing.

Coulthard's luck has continued...

5 place grid penalty due to a gearbox change after his Q2 crash

live pictures show that it has stopped raining. I hope it rains again after the start. would like to see a standing start in a damp track and a wet race.

Looks like they will need to start on inters its to damp for dry tyres.

Both ferrari drivers done a few laps so that could well mean they come in early now.

Have to admit I am a bit nervous about the start.

Its next too guaranteed someone will put in a wall or into another car, its just a case of who really.

I'm betting on piquet definitely and vettel as well.

Edit: Just as i type this theres a shot of some fairly heavy rain.
