I think the weather for the race is overly good, but if it rains, you're on!

i wasn't thinking of that scale, but you never know

the mix of KERS and non-KERS cars off the start line could also add to the chances.

I just hope Brawn avoid each other and others at the start. Only an hour to go!!!!

i think vettel is going to cause a sting in the middle, and wouln't surprise to see him make his move on corner 1.

barrichello i feel will take the win. wonderful if jenson gets it! :D

GO GO GO! :D


Jenson drives it like he owns it; Lewis drives it like he stole it

Good intro thing there before the chain. Can't wait for this to start, hope Brundle still does his grid walk.

i really like jakes presenting, hes good for the non f1 fan, but not patronising for the old timers. simple and sweet, and already, lewis over, straight onto everyone else! :D well done BBC!


Jenson drives it like he owns it; Lewis drives it like he stole it

Anyone else noticed the CBBC audio option?

ooh what is it like? :D lol, and who is doing it?


Jenson drives it like he owns it; Lewis drives it like he stole it

I could only hear music, no commentary.

i just looked at the cbbc messageboard for f1, kids can ask perry mccarthy questions. about 10 people on there haha.

some classic lines 'lewis hamilton is sandbagging about his car being slow. i think all cars are equal'.

lol, kids, eh!? :P

lol i thought you were joking but there actually is a CBBC commentary there. Shame about the generic music, want to hear the teletubbies commentating or something.

It was more like 1hr 10min, but that wouldn't be funny, so yeah, I'll let you have 20min :P

LOL, BBC going for equality and bringing out ethnic Stig again? :P

LMFAO @ ethnic stig lol!

good to see brundles gridwalk again, i love it how owns that grid, pushes past everyone and they drop all interviews for him! :D legend!


Jenson drives it like he owns it; Lewis drives it like he stole it

It was good to see them start the grid walk nice and early - give him plenty of time so he can find people and not have to rush around like mad.

So, who has the measure, Barrichello or Button?

[Website]

Piquet.

The CBBC commentary is live!
