Anyone know at what time it start to get dark in australia at this time of the year ?
 
NBC would be crazy to end coverage at 3:30. I think they go to paid programming after this ends. After P2 last night it did the same.

The guy on Sky said 19:37 local time.
 
Haven't slept yet realised it was on and am watching, bit chaotic Q1, now a whole load of nothing :p. Silly F1s don't do wet :lol:.
 
There certainly is a lot of faffing going on. There is a bit of rain, we have got rid of the noobs, so let's get going.

*slow clap*
 
I'm eating an habanero, I need a reason to stay awake
 
lol, nice AJ, I'd just go for some Tijuana style tacos :drool:

This is kind of boring now watching dudes clear the water with brooms and ****, anyone heard of trucks with huge blowers and sweepers NASCAR style? :p

Proud of Perez though, Nico as well. Hamilton got way too excited early on causing that end-plate damage, could've had a lot quicker time, but it's just Q1 so meh.

Surprised at Williams' lack of pace.
 
Charlie Whiting, the voice of doom....
 
Charlie just said they're delaying it to clear debris (fair enough) and to clear water off the track. That's the part I don't understand. This isn't NASCAR, they can race in rain.

Ugh. If coverage ends at 3:30 as it's slated to, I'm going to be a bit annoyed.

Coming right up, the 50th rerun of the 2013 Danica Pat... Daytona 500. After these commercials.
 
The bloke with the leafblower trying to blow the water off the circuit must have the most feckless job in the world.
 
I say we just put the drivers out on pedal powered karts.
 
Alarm clock.

Y U NO WAKE ME UP ON TIME.

Fairly crash action packed Q1 with changeable conditions.

You can read up on it here.
 
Crashes and delays :p.
 
Should be around 5 minutes to the start.

He is like a diesel and is running rich.
 
Radio 5 live say its moving to 5 live extra, that was 15 minutes ago, 5 live extra is still offline....
 
More delays, this is going to be like Korea 2010
 
I should've stayed in bed. *sigh*
 
boring...
 
If I were there I could at least enjoy the rain, but this is getting a bit tedious. :grumpy:
