Scary crash for Ericsson- glad he walked away

Friday Practice 1 - Perez springs a surprise

Friday Practice 2 results

Voted for Kimi. Ferrari is strong here and is displaying good pace. If Kimi takes the lead chances are team orders will pull him back to finishing behind Seb. But one can still hope for a miracle

Ferrari puts the biggest nail in Hamilton’s title hopes on Sunday. Ferrari win big. 35-40 seconds to Mercedes.

I want to vote for Vettel, but I have a feeling that the starting 3 will crash each other out at the start of the race. I'll go with Grosjean. Sucks about Alonso hitting KMAG during his last flying lap.

Both Haas will score points, passing Renault in the Constructors Championship.

I’m in heaven.

I am disappointed. The podium ceremony was great though.
