Renault have been down on top end power and still they use the same amount of fuel. Hmmm. Mapping has a lot to do with it I guess.

Suggests to me that Renault's BSFC isn't quite where it needs to be.
 
I hate 4 AM races. I will DEFINITELY fall asleep before the green lights go out :indiff:.
 
Im going to be up! but I admit I feel asleep during Q3 last night as it was almost 6am I think with the rain delay
 
Good morning people! :)

Its 8.15am here..
 
11:20 p.m. right here :)

This one seems like it's going to be an awesome race!!!!
 
Not really, they are late afternoon early evening :p :sly:

Japan is? Cause a few from that area were complaining about Australia being too early but Japan isn't? Also Austin is at a good time for you guys and Brazil?

Canada I can see I guess

Well lucky you guys, center of the racing world, with hardly any race being too late. Cause I think Bahrain next week is going to be on at 4 or 5pm for you? It's hard to remember time conversions.
 
Perez not out on track yet...

Bahrain is a few hours ahead of us I think, so would be earlier in the day :D

Crazy stuff, I had no idea drivers were trying such risky tactics. I hope the driver in question is okay.

I do hope they do something to remove driver weight as such an extreme factor. It seems unnecessary.

Mandate minimum weights for car without driver and driver separately. Drivers must have pockets filled with spanners to come up to the driver minimum, say 85-90kg.

It's not like they'll end up with fat drivers. The requirement to be super fit to race at those Gs for two hours is still there. It just means that the taller guys aren't left wondering if they'd be better off "accidentally" losing a leg. :(
 
But Bahrain is a night race this year...
 
No rain yet... surprising.
High chances we could have a dry race today. But still, weather here have gone bonker this week. Finger crossed!
 
Any news of will it rain?

Oh then will be afternoon for us, I think they are about 4/5 hours ahead :D
 
Pain in the ass when my internet modem decided to freak out an need resetting minutes before the race.
 
Horner getting the fuel flow rate arguement in early, Force India cant get Perez car re-started...
