until rule maker Growler rules it illegal I'm tempted to stick with my Vettel 1st, 2nd and 3rd prediction

Hamilton and Button must be in with a podium chance

I agree with Hamilton on his last performance.. The McLaren's on the other hand don't seem to be up to their usual standard... redface:
I'm still convinced the Renault's are going to come through tho at some point... surrender:
Looking forward to it tho.... :thumbsup:

I have just seen that kraut on sky news spoutting of saying he did not think he did anything wrong in Malaysia he is a selfish overpaid little bastard he makes my blood boil sitting there with that smug look on his face ... I could stick my fist in it every time I see it.... He is a brilliant talent but true sportsman have some humility that sporney little bastard has none.... Explode:

Not a happy bunny... eveilgrin:

Yes seems he's less than as apologetic as it once seemd

BBC link

Quote
Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel says he would "probably" ignore team orders again if he was instructed not to challenge team-mate Mark Webber.
Vettel was asked if he would repeat his actions from the Malaysian Grand Prix.
He said: "I'm not sure I can give a proper answer because in the moment it might be different but I would probably do the same."

But IIRC didn't Webber disobey orders not to overtake Vettel in the British GP a couple of years back?
Well, whatever, nevermind

Here we are again then ey?

Is it really 3 weeks since the last race?

This is Rosbergs favourite track, and the only race that Merc has won since taking over Brawn is HERE.
So, it's no suprise to see he was first in practice yeterday, and a poorly Hammy was 2nd.

Good ole Desperate Dan look a like, Webber was 3rd, with his nasty Kraut team mate 4th.

Ferrari were up next, Button not far behind, and the one O really want to see starting to shine, Di Resta, just inside the top ten.

I think Merc are looking strong for this weekend, but will Hamilton be able to stay on the pace for the duration if he's not well?
Qualifying should prove to be very interesting. rubschin:

Race live on BBC1 Sunday morning. cloud9:

When's cutoff time for making our Coconut selections?

And have you made a rule yet stopping selecting the same driver for 1st, 2nd and 3rd?


Massa fastest in P2  ;D

Don't really think that's in the spirit of fair compettion that, but hey ho, it's only a bir'of fun like I suppose, so if you really want to put Vettel down for all of the top three places, then do it. whistle:

Cut off time for selections is 1 second before the parade/warm up lap.

Bit early that Stevie lad. eeek:

Hammy's poorly don't forget, and what happens if one of them have an accident in qualifying, or summat that demotes one of them to the back of the grid? Shrugs:

You don't gain any advantage by doing your placings so early, but hey ho, it's up to you.

Is that your final decision then? confused:
