I think the redbulls will do well and I am also going to say the Sauber or Perez will do really well. New track, that car is great on tires, an this is the closest he gets to a home grand prix. I think Jenson will do well as well.

 

Schumi top 3 finish.... (and I'm not a MS fan btw )

 

HRT is for sale... shall we put together a consortium?

 

Maybe we could buy it and persuade Honda to supply the engines.

We could probably find better drivers, buy just looking over in the R&C forum

 

For sure, and I can't imagine it would cost more than $300 or so... I'm in!

 

A lot of hype is floating around the Ron Howard film, "Rush"...




but the one I want to see is this..

looks to be a great one!

 

Cool program on Speed the other day about COTA (thanks John) I wish I was able to make the race, but I think it's gonna be a zoo so that makes me feel a little better.



I'm hoping Jensen wins.

 

I'm hopeful for Kimi, cause yeahyeahyeahheknowswhathe'sdoing. I'd love to see Fernando win and close it up, but I'm affraid it will be a Vettel route.

Odd prediction (for which I got blasted in the Racing forum): another problem for Lewis preventing him from finishing in the points. I still think Ron Dennis is evil enough to give up a constructors position (cause he can't win the title) just to spite Lewis.

 

Here's a pretty cool and in-depth analysis of COTA which predicts the pole lap time will be set at 1:37:53...

Should we start an over/under?


I'm hoping for Alonso to win and Vettel to come in third (possibly behind Kimi?) to tie the championship up heading into Brazil.

I'm also predicting a huge pileup at corner number one; first time on the track, blind corner where drivers have been saying they have to 'feel' their way through it and 'trust' that they're going the right way... hope Alonso doesn't qualify too far back and get caught up in it again.
