Not a bad idea. Closed the Australia banter threads.

I am going to leave my recap open until tomorrow though. Just because I can.

 

I'm not sure Michael will be ready, I'm giving him until Monaco to impress. Nevertheless I wouldn't be surprised if he does well this weekend.

He did claim to have his hot qualifying laps impeded by Alonso and Hamilton and two separate occasions so maybe he is already fast enough?

Either way, I'm tipping Alonso, he's proved himself with 2 wins and 2 podiums at this circuit. Plenty of overtaking opportunities at this circuit too, so any qualifying mishaps can be overcome.

 

He is superb in the rain...or at least he used to be, but I still have doubts...... Well, it's not decision day today anyway ;o)

 

WTF does Lauda know? I met him while at Mosler - nice guy, but how long has it been since he's been relevant in F1?

 

That's an interesting point - would he really have walked over to Alonso and complained about being held up if he didn't really think he was being held up?

Still, for all the hype surrounding his return, you'd think he'd have passed a few more guys by now.

 

Call me crazy, but I predict Lewis takes #1 in Malaysia. I have this vision of Lewis and and Fern battling for the win, and Nico or Micheal taking 3rd. Is it just me, or does Felipe not perform well in the rain?

 

I'm praying for Vettel to win it, actually.

 

This sucks. I am going away today with no internet until monday. So I will miss practice, qualifying and the race AND I have to make my Fantasy team today, with no clue who will perform well! Any tips? Who is good in the wet?

 

He might have a shot in a rain shortened race

 

Good points bud, Schumi's been getting closer to Rosberg in the last two rounds so lets see. And yes, I think Alonso's also a usual suspect to perform well...especially where he's won before.

I hear yah with times being so different but I read a interview with him before Bahrain and he's been damn near 100% on all his predictions thru Australia so I gotta give an old champ an open ear and he def has better knowledge of the sport than me!
