vinny1275 - 24/10/10 at 05:39 AM

Get the bacon on, it's been raining over there!


RichieW - 24/10/10 at 05:50 AM

I have dragged myself out of bed for it too. Damp track is a bonus.


JeffJeffers - 24/10/10 at 05:58 AM

How many cars will be left at the end of the race?


RichieW - 24/10/10 at 06:11 AM

Not many. I wonder if the Red Bulls will take each other off. They are both racing for the title. The McLarens are out of it really if the Red Bulls finish 1,2.


JeffJeffers - 24/10/10 at 06:14 AM

I think the Mclarens are out of it anyway. Its going to be Alonso or Vettel who win the tittle!


JeffJeffers - 24/10/10 at 06:17 AM

Glad I got up to watch a red flaged race.


Surrey Dave - 24/10/10 at 06:19 AM

I've got a great idea!, let's build a circuit where it rains, so much you will even have difficulty completing the project , Bernie, Bernie,Bernie,Bernie!!!!!!!!!!

I don't want to hear moaning drivers on team radio, it's embarrassing!

These are the best drivers in the world!

They might have to do some overtime and race on Monday.........

Pansies! Get out there and drive....

this is the problem with the far east races, it $%^&ing rains a lot! They should have pulled this race - they broke their own rules to stage it there even though the tarmac was only laid 2 weeks ago, the water will just be lifting the oil out of the road surface, it must be like an ice rink out there....


Werner Van Loock - 24/10/10 at 06:25 AM

what race???


Catatomic - 24/10/10 at 06:38 AM

Yawn... F1 powerboating anyone? Lewis reckons there's enough grip. Surely this is what they get paid for!


karlak - 24/10/10 at 06:38 AM

For Gawds sake - you have wet tyres ,, stick em on, get out there and drive accordingly.


welderman - 24/10/10 at 06:39 AM

Xbox time for a few goes me thinks


Surrey Dave - 24/10/10 at 06:43 AM

It's gonna get dark!

I guess they are pushing the times to suit western tv schedules, so it's all unraveling nicely.

Red Bull don't look too worried..........

Why don't they design the tracks to cope with the local weather? The drainage / falls and quality of the finishing looks all wrong.

There are gulleys set above the level of the surrounding track.

Time for a change of avatar I think.

Tipster69 - 24/10/10 at 07:02 AM

It's not actually raining very much, but granted the spray is a mare.

I deffo think they tried to get to this track pushed through too quickly.


scootz - 24/10/10 at 07:04 AM

Yup!


Tipster69 - 24/10/10 at 07:10 AM

I see Jensons still crying, ****in Ninny, get on with it. Unlike Lewis who thinks it's good to go, lol.


RichieW - 24/10/10 at 07:17 AM

Well my kitchen is now cleaned up and tidy. Might start on the ironing next.....


JeffJeffers - 24/10/10 at 07:20 AM

For god sake start the race already, I'm not sure how many more bacon sandwichs I can eat!

Tipster69 - 24/10/10 at 07:21 AM

It's really winding me up now this. As they keep saying it is NO worse than dozens of other wet races they been allowed to race in.

I can't help but think, if Webber, Vettel & Alonso had to race, ie, if they needed the points, then this race would be underway proper long since. It's bulls**t.


karlak - 24/10/10 at 07:29 AM

LOL - Brundle is slating them now

"may as well leave their wet tyres at home"


daniel mason - 24/10/10 at 07:42 AM

we are racing again


Tipster69 - 24/10/10 at 07:47 AM

Just deserts.


karlak - 24/10/10 at 08:40 AM

Oh, what a shame. The light didnt save Vettel... LOL

bigfoot4616 - 24/10/10 at 11:34 AM

not happy with the idiot at the BBC that decided to switch to BBC2, i was recording it so will have to wait until after this afternoons football to watch the end

also don't see why they can't wait untill it improves if its to wet to race or come back monday and make the tv stations alter there schedules. nascar seem to manage doing that ok


JoelP - 24/10/10 at 12:55 PM

i missed a few mins when i changed channel because i forgot that i had paused it for a few mins! Switched to find a crashed renault, no sign of what had happened.


hicost blade - 24/10/10 at 03:38 PM

D to the N to the F

It was probably Sutil. He seemed to think he was involved in a demolition derby rather than an F1 race.


loggyboy - 24/10/10 at 04:42 PM

Im fuming at the BBC.
Firstly, why switch channels? It means any1 recording it on video, dvd or sky/virgin plus, missed the 2nd part. ESPECIALLY when its an early start GP and lots of viewers will record it. I cant imagine anyone wanting to record Andrew Marr, so why not stick him over to BBC2 for an hour??

NOT ONLY THAT but when I go online to view the 2nd part on the I player, they MISSED OUT 2 laps meaning I missed Petrovs mishap.
Fecking Rediculous.

Whats the points of view email????!
