Why is she even there? Let her stay at that god awful Gadget show.

Why can't I find any results? Has it been delayed or something?

Last session has been delayed. It will start in 3 minutes. Though I think they should have run without the delay.
 
I hope the bbc continues their broadcast then!

Edit!

It is on BBC 2. :lol:

Nevermind, the ratel ^ realised. :)

Wonder who's going to get this pole... Red Bull, or Red Bull?

Alonso will win this one comfortably.

EDIT:

Vettel obviously can't drive. Everyone knows that in the rain, the car matters more than the driver. [/sarcasm]

Fantastic performances by Vettel, Rosberg and Alonso. Lewis just doesn't look dialled in with that Merc, but Rosberg does a stellar job. Alonso might have had pole, but the car just had no tires for hat second lap.

If the weather stays wet tomorrow, it will be a good race. Please... we really need to end the season on a good race.

He isn't even human
 
Even in the rain Vettel is by far the fastest. Incredible. 0.7 sec ahead.
 
Vettel to win, but i wouldn't rule out Rosberg or Alonso getting lucky.
 
I wonder if Lewis cost himself two places by shifting to 7th gear a bit too early near the end of his lap.

It was the traction control.

Haha :P

TSN switched to bloody Grey cup previews, so I missed Q3. The game isn't even until tomorrow! :banghead:
 
Well that could have been an interesting qualifying session. Why do they even bring full wets anymore?

I'm curious if this is really true, I mean, "physical" traction control is possible.. for example, a design that will allow something to be audible so the driver can tell that the tyre is near spinning, or maybe some vibration or pressure on the gas pedal, I don't know.. there must be a way to achieve this kind of traction control.. or even a super electronic equipped shoe that can control the pedal.. or magnets.. or anything.. hahaha..
 
The driver can feel if the tyre is spinning. You can go and pull out of your drive way in your road car and know the wheel is spinning if you floor it. (Don't floor it out of your driveway in to the path of an oncoming truck because we'll have to pick up pieces of you from around your neighbourhood).
 
i forgot all about this race I thought it was next weekend.
 
I'd love for Webber to take the win this race, but i just can't see it happening.

Wow Williams is really painting a different picture of Pastor on Facebook. They are showing no hard feelings towards him, and Pastor even asked the team to sign his helmet:

I can't tell if it's PR bull or genuine feelings, but I think it's PR bull. Knowing F1, it's often that a team will put on a mask in the face of some sort of adversity. It's not all fun and racing, it's business too.

Also I'm pretty bummed I missed out on qualifying. I figured for sure there would a replay on NBC later in the day, but no it had to be 1AM instead. Wasn't gonna stay up for that, and I forgot to DVR it.
 
60% chance of rain. Whut? :irked::(
I'm really hopeful to have a dry/wet race.
 
There is fairly good hope for Vettel's winning streak to end, if Alonso manages to pull another one of his superb starts off the line, and overtake Vettel before the first corner. Starting somewhere around 6th, he could finish 2nd for several times this year. Let's see if he can do any better from third now, after a number of unimpressive qualifying performances.

Then, probably Ferrari will flop on their strategy. And we all know how seemingly perfect and consistent Red Bull's on it.

Alonso's pace is pretty good.

I hope he can catch Vettel.
 
Webber will now close the gap on Vettel. Just wait and see.
 
Both McLaren cars on a good pace
 
It looks like Red Bull have somehow found the perfect compromise between a wet and a dry set-up.
 
Grosjean gone.

I would love for Rosberg to get a podium..... nope.
 
Another win for Vettel. Can't blame him for doing a good job but this was the most boring season I've seen so far. Hope the other teams can build a competitive car next year.
 
Why Mercedes?! Why put Rosberg on dry tires?! Webber in for wet tires.
 
Webber put on options, not wet tyres.
