Good interview all around, I thought.

 

I not seen it yet but I figure Nico has pole and Ham has buggered up...I'll watch it in a bit...

 

Am ordering one in blue Dave V told me it's the new red..

 

Ham had the odd lock up but that lost him no time. Having watched davidsons lap comparison they were even all the way through. Lewis lost
Time but then won it back and they were even up until some point In the third sector at which point hams car snapped out and he lost 2 tenths and it remained that way for last few corners and until the finish line


But have to concede nico put in a good lap and was fair and square nico on pole. Nicos long run pace looked good too from what people are telling me (I missed the practices this time sadly) so looking good for nico right now in general. Though in all races they have started in a comparable grid position and both finished nico has yet to win one. Tomorrow is his best chance but lewis is a dog in the rain and he will be fighting for sure my money is still on lewis. Unless it's a sc procession.

 

gee..that's really nice and gracious of you. Nico will be so happy with those comments.

 

I was wondering what that ugly stench percolating out of my ihpone was. Turns our my phone was just trying to tell me to check fchat because aircon just posted

 

By the time you get to drive it yours will have a nice dusty matte finish.

 

I thought that, according to the current rumours, silver is the new red, and red is the new blue?

 

Green is still the color of envy.

 

Green is the colour of the bailiff's knocking on the door!

 

Green is the color of the door the bailiff's knocking on.

 

rosberg takes poles...hmmmmm

will hamilton tell rosberg "cum, let me help you lube your steering"

 

He'll just sneak into parc ferme and swap the numbers on the cars as he did in Singapore!

 

Rain forecast is 100%, but it doesn't look like the typhoon will hit until later.

 

Question isn't so much about the race but getting off to Russia in time.

 

+1

Just checked the weather forecast for the track. Seems Bernie has indeed told it to get the hell out of his way, at least for the race.

According to this at least, it will pass by offshore and the rain will be heavy earlier in the day..... Race doesn't start till 15:00 local of course. By which time they should be good.

Interesting tracking map here too - According to that, they shouldn't have a problem getting out either......

Actually, seems I'm wrong there! Just ran the whole simulation again, and it would appear they're going to be racing in the eye of the storm. Image below is for 15:00 local, and the pin is the track! Then it rolls on by.....

Good. I look forward to seeing both Bernie and Vlad upset.

 

Harsh!.... Pain meds working for you?.....

 

No. But that has nothing to do with my schadenfreude.

 

Rain is one thing high winds another. I doubt that they'll time it with the eye perfectly.
