1) Who is gonna be on the race podium?
2) Is this track any good or just lolTilke?
3) Ferrari won here last year? Any chance of that happening again?
4) Any muddy-rainy-miserable wet weather accidents? (Webber-Rosberg 2010)
5) Where is his Schumacherness going to finish?
6) How about that German winning the title?
 
1) Who is gonna be on the race podium?
Button, Alonso and Webber. Vettel will still be recovering from his celebrations I hope so he won't get pole and fail in the race.
2) Is this track any good or just lolTilke?
I quite like it. I played it on F1 2010 and seems very challenging with lots of overtaking opportunities.
3) Ferrari won here last year? Any chance of that happening again?
I doubt it, Mclaren seem to be on form and the Red Bulls are way faster than Ferrari.
4) Any muddy-rainy-miserable wet weather accidents? (Webber-Rosberg 2010)
I hope so.
5) Where is his Schumacherness going to finish?
I am hoping fourth. He did well last year and he is on form right now. Hope he gets a good quali.
6) How about that German winning the title?
Hopefully he will encounter huge fail in this race and the next. I really don't want to see any fingers after the race.

Can't really judge from last years manic race.

3) Ferrari won here last year? Any chance of that happening again? I think so.

Off to watch fp1!
 
1) Who is gonna be on the race podium?

Button, Alonso, Vettel

2) Is this track any good or just lolTilke?

It's lacking the tradition of the historic venues, obviously, but Tilke has created worse tracks than this one.

3) Ferrari won here last year? Any chance of that happening again?

If Alonso is as much on fire as he was in Japan, it's a definitive option.

4) Any muddy-rainy-miserable wet weather accidents? (Webber-Rosberg 2010)

Already had one in FP2. That pit exit is not the cleverest idea.

5) Where is his Schumacherness going to finish?

On the track, just like everybody else. ;)

6) How about that German winning the title?

I never cared for the nationality of a driver. It has no bearing on the driver's talent. If a driver came from North Evilstan, I couldn't care less as long as he's entertaining to watch and/or delivers performances that leave me speachless.
 
1) Who is gonna be on the race podium?
Vettel, Alonso, Webber
2) Is this track any good or just lolTilke?
It looks interesting, that's for sure.
3) Ferrari won here last year? Any chance of that happening again?
I think the chances of that happening are rather slim indeed.
4) Any muddy-rainy-miserable wet weather accidents? (Webber-Rosberg 2010)
Only if it rains.
5) Where is his Schumacherness going to finish?
Somewhere between 6th - 9th.
6) How about that German winning the title?
Elated, I'm very happy for him.
 
Lewis looks absolutely over the moon with excitement about his pole position. Great lap though.
 
Looks like McLaren are gonna be unbeatable this weekend. :L
Another win for Jens then, I reckon?
 
tremendous performance by the McLaren team, great effort to put hamilton on pole.

I wonder if Jenson will be able to deny hamilton for the race victory.
 
1) Who is gonna be on the race podium?
Button, Alonso and Vettel. Hamilton will crash out trying too hard.
2) Is this track any good or just lolTilke?
I like it, bendy bits and strait bits.
3) Ferrari won here last year? Any chance of that happening again?
Mclaren seem to be on form and the Red Bulls are faster than Ferrari, but Alonso is always a threat.
4) Any muddy-rainy-miserable wet weather accidents? (Webber-Rosberg 2010)
I hope not.
5) Where is his Schumacherness going to finish?
Fith or fourth.
6) How about that German winning the title?
Probably the in-form driver in the best car.
 
Seems like it's going to be an interesting race. Will be curious to see if Vettel will drive like he's on vacation already or like he has to build a further foundation to his legacy.

Great pole by Ham sandwich and McMerc. Let's see some racing now!

Anyone awake and watching this?
What a start! That was quite exciting.
 
Well quite a rotten bit of luck for jens in the first lap :? Vettel in the lead, but he doesn't seem to get away much from Hamilton.

EDIT:

- LOLZ @ Button & Rosberg - nice dog fight

Yep. The start and first few laps of an F1 race is one of the most awesome things to experience. This one was a blinder!

Webber looking like he's in a reasonble position here...
 
Hamilton vs Webber - absolutely brilliant stuff :D Looks like Lewis got his mojo back. That's entertainment worth getting up at 0-goddammit o'clock on a sunday morning :mrgreen:
 
This is a great race - Alonso is flying now.
