The Formula 1 Thread - 2011
The cheapest place I could find for tickets then was direct with the circuit; however, I do know that they are sold out for the Sunday. I think the f1.com website may have them available but they do add a premium (or at least, only offer the more expensive tickets)...
Yes, you can book a grandstand seat... the best ime is at the second chicane...
There is about 78 years worth of space in the corner. Hamilton is at it again!
Webber has half of his car off the insideo f the track trying to give Hamilton room. Hamilton decides he wants to stop Mark from getting through and tries to run him out of road. FAIL. Fortunately, Hamilton span off and Webber carried on.
it's not that clear on the BBC website, but the F1 TV deal has been re-written.. so that for 2012-2018 they will only do half the races live and the other ones as highlights. Sky will do all races live..
I had thought BBC was signed up for all races until the end of 2013.

Well, I for one, won't be siging up for Sky Sports just to watch F1, the feckers get more than enough money out of me as it is.
It's ridiculous that, with the number of people that watch F1 across Europe that it's not ne of the "protected£ sports events and guaranteed to be available on council telly.

There was the other incident where Webber was on the outside at turn 2 and Hamilton pushed Webber onto the astroturf.
Singapore a year ago, but the other way around?

I hope Lewis keeps doing what he's doing. I wish more F1 drivers would do the same.
And all this because the BBC wanted to keep BBC Four (TV channel), crazy there is nothing on it anyway. More people watch the F1 in a single weekend than people watch BBC Four in a month...probably.
The BBC has once again failed its licence fee payers.

Grrrrrr
EDIT: Apparently the deal is in breach of the Concorde Agreement between the teams so it may not go through, a bit like Bahrain a few months back. http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/93455

So good news for the McLaren's this weekend, Hamilton has led both FP1 and FP2 and is 0.2 seconds ahead of second place Teflonso. Button is in third, Webber fourth and Vettel fifth. The top 5 are separated by half a second, so quite a big gap really.
