Afternoon all.

I'm looking forward to this race.

Mid-field racing should be interesting, I think Haas are the 4th fastest team but haven't really shown it yet. It will be interesting to see if Alonso can force the McLaren to a better position that it really deserves

The Sky folks reporting a 50% chance of rain.

50% chance of rain that could shake things up. My prediction is it will not rain enough for wets

I just hope everyone get through turn 1, it can be tricky here with all the cars trying to pick up places

I've checked the weather and it's showing 0% of rain.

Maybe Sky's weather forecaster is still in the bar from last night.

I'm guessing there were a couple of spots and they got over excited

LOLOLO Liberty Media on Sky claiming they are into media, why didn't he say "we just had to give refunds to everyone who brought our internet race package as we fucked it up and need to start again"

This weekend was their first "non-test" race weekend and it all went tits up

Sean Bratches of Liberty Media on investigating a GP in Miami:

"I don't think there's a city in the world more in line with our brand."

Figures. I think I'd prefer him to be talking about circuits than cities. There's only so many street circuits you can include before it becomes a noisy version of Jeux Sans Frontieres.

That track walk up Las Ramblas was hilarious.

Reminded me of when the Beeb had the coverage. Their pre-race skits were top class.

I agree they are also looking at street races in New York and Los Vegas, they are going to Americanise F1 and no-one likes America other than Americans, the land of the free who have the most police and law enforcement agencies than any where else in the world and all armed like an occupying force

Paddy Lowe looked good while he was at Mercedes, he is looking very exposed at Williams

 

[Limejuice]

Lordy, I never though there was a national anthem as dreary as God Save The Queen.

How wrong I was.

Afternoon all

 

[Badgers]

Drama

 

[Limejuice]

Drama

Just a tad.

Drama

Just a tad.

First corner hero's just never learn, you can't win a race at the first corner!!!!!

This sort of bullshit must drive team managers crazy, it is just so unnecessary

Must be a race lap, because the qualifying laps were 1:16-ish.

 

[Limejuice]

Is it me, or is it looking darker and cloudier?

 

[Badgers]

Whatever the stat Hamilton looks imperious out there

Bottas should be getting past Vettel

Wonder of the Red Bull duo will behave

it looks overcast but radar says no rain according to Brazilian commentators

 

[Badgers]

Bottas should be getting past Vettel

Looks like the old undercut might do the job

I hope not.
