Actually, scratch that. I'm good with my picks.
You can still make the switch. I think an hour and a half left.

I've never been secretive about my team, so here it is as of 30 seconds ago:

Button
Hamilton
Rosberg

At this point I am starting to look at undervalued drivers.

I dropped Alonso and picked up Kubica.

It is a good risk. He has a massive upside.

So I am running:

Vettel
Hamilton
Kubica

If Kubica can gain just .50 in this race then I can pick up Sutil as well.

So I am rooting for he of the massive olfactory - big nose don't fail me now!

Practice 3 is at 8:00 pm PST

Qualifying is at 11:00 pm PST

I will be here for qualifying for sure and will try to make it for P3.

The p2p stream has been working all weekend.

Going to be an exciting race!

I thought about it, but I couldn't not pickup Button this week.

^Nope, but my CP wouldn't update unless I logged out and relogged in.

Your picks are locked at this point anyway
