I kinda enjoy these early starts, though 6 o'clock start for China should be interesting, reminds me of the time i got up at 5 to watch South Korean GP qualifying for it to be called off by rain .


    I remember when that was called off by rain. It was alright in the end when it restarted. That was a great race too.

    Remember Malaysia 2009 when the rain came down so heavily that they had to stop the race permanently and only half-points could be awarded. That was like a 6 or 7 o'clock start. So frustrating too.

    Yeah, Button had won 2 races at that point, but none of them he had actually crossed the line without a yellow or red flag, kinda like numerburg in 2007 and the comedy of all the cars coming off the first corner. it was like a collection of 7 F1 cars and one tractor trying to pull them out.

    Ohhh! I remember watching that race live and dying with laughter. Winklehock was leading and after the first lap of the restart, he was down to 8th.

    That was also the grand prix when Alonso and Massa had a small coming together in the last few laps and had an argument (in Spanish) about it. Full of swearing and everything.


  4. I know. She and Lucy Pinder were F1·2005's biggest (!) attraction(s).

  5. dam if Webber would have gotten past Hiedfeld in the final laps I would have picked the correct podium

    and nice picture reminds me of a funny youtube video:

  6. Reminder guys, Chinese Grand Prix this weekend, get ya picks in
  7. I got an email from SportGuru reminding me to make my choices... It's great

  8. Made my picks for the grand prix.

    By the way, Vettel topped BOTH practices.
  9. picks done
  10. Webber out in Q1, wow. That really does surprise me
