I don't fear the reaper, but in public toilets, I fear the peeper.

Button, Whitmarsh, McLaren, Lauda, Anderson, Pirelli, Brundle, Stewart, Michael.....anyone else?

Of the top of my head, India, it was SO predictable and apart from Hamilton and Massa doing their usual tooling about there wasn't really anything memorable. I think the predictability was the worst part though. :yawn:
Rising number one of Formula 1, Juan - Juan, one wonders should Juan only win one Formula 1 one year, would Juan have won that one in round one, Juan??

Yeah India was pretty dull. I voted for Valencia though, simply because I just can't remember what happened... at all.... it must have been crap :confused:

India was a bit of a snorefest, it has potential to be great, long straights into wide entry tight corners but it just didn't work... yet another Vettel win!

Singapore was alright IMO. I've never felt that circuit has been boring. It's usually been better than Monaco actually. :yes:

How do you know if something was boring if you didn't see it? It was an alright race, nothing tio write home about but it wasn't a total borefest like Valencia or Istanbul Park. There was a decent result too.

Agree with this one. Singapore was actually more entertaining than usual though.
Lewis:
"In Turkey 2010, I led the race and was told to back off to save fuel and JB had also been told to back off and hold position. Then he overtook me, just as Sebastian did to Mark. That was tough. So I understand the feelings Mark had."
