Thanks mate.

Hell ya look at Button and Rosberg getting in the mix ! Dare I say Rosberg could win (of course depending on race strategy) or get a podium? Geez that darn Redbull is just amazing so kudo's to them for once again being the car to beat.

Q was pretty eventful but kinda boring; ferrari are truly off, in alonso's lap he was dropping almost 1/2 sec per sector, but it looked as if aalonso wasnt looking for much...

And why aare the maccas copying ferrari?? At least hamilton can now say he's driven in red

Button was great, his lap was so clean... You could see lewis had to push hard and was a bit sketchy but jenson was pretty vettel-like he he in fact, i think he just might win the race, while lewis might start dropping behind as the race progresses giving the podium to alonso.

webber missing the cut must be a major tough pill... To see vettel havingb absolutely perfect drives, i think he's in for a letdown

You not being a Mclaren fan you would not know that hugo boss alongside Mclaren have let the public or fans design Race suits for Mclaren this season.

I have to say, I really think the red race suits they're using are absolutely hideous. The shade of red is way too loud. And it clashes horribly with some of the logos. I'm really glad it's just one race.

I was also going to say "In before someone says it makes Lewis look like Senna", but then I remembered some annoying little so-and-so already texted/Tweeted the Beeb saying it did

Anyway, looking ahead to the race, hopefully the two McLarens sitting together on the grid can launch a more credible assault on Vettel than we've seen in the past couple of races. The concern is, once again, someone behind making a monster start and then getting in the way and holding one or both of them up. The biggest threat in that regard is probably Rosberg, but it's conceivable one Ferrari could do it too - maybe both, but if that happens...Yeesh, it's gonna be long race.

McLaren can't afford to have someone do a Heidfeld and get held up by either Rosberg or the Ferraris. If it happens, then they'll just have to get 'em back on that back straight and go on and prevent an ongoing Vettel clean-sweep.

It's not even one race, apparently it was only for qualifying.

Do you remember when BAR used to change their race suits for the Chinese Grand Prix? They went from their usual white colours to blue with gold stars (or something like that....)

[f1ea]

Yeah the suits look awful. But its ok for a freshup; like the renault golden suits or massa's brazil suit..

Anyway, i think only massa did hold up a macca, the rest its been pretty normal, lewis simply struggled with the tires in malaysia and even so he should have been to pass him if he was actually beind held up.

I doubt nico will hold it up and land a podium, so far the mercs havent been outstanding in race trim. I think the renaults ha a bigger chaance of gettinb between mclaren/ferrari. Thats going to be vthe race to watch... Oh and the toro rossos...
Other than that, jenson might snatch it from vettel, but in such form it will be difficult.

That was because British American Tobacco were advertising 555 instead of Lucky Strike. They also swapped the Lucky Strike red circles on the sidepods for 555s.

Don Draper was not happy about that.

[racechick]

I like the suits, but wondered what was going on when I first saw one. I just caught a glimpse of it and thought , who is that!! They're cool. Too many race suits are just boring.

[acosmichippo]

It was refreshing to see a suit with some kind of aesthetic theme apart from being a billboard.

For the first time in years I'm not staying awake until godawful hours to watch the race live. It's obviously going to be Vettel running off into the distance and the rest just falling behind-boring! Yeh, there will be some passing when one car has fresh tires and another doesn't but I hate seeing the championship not being a contest (unless it's my driver running away with it )

Not enjoying the season much?

I'm going to bed right now, but I'll be just in time to see Vettel taking another...
