The grandstands are as empty as our banter thread.

I'm here, I just enjoy watching it on fullscreen sometimes.

I wonder how the new UK contracts are going to affect the programming from our perspective now that Sky Sports is set to become the "main station" broadcasting the F1 practices and races starting next year. BBC is only covering half of the races live for the next 6 years.

That is an interesting issue. Good thing the Proxy is paid month to month.

From Martin Brundle's Twitter: "Found out last night, no idea how it will work yet. I'm out of contract, will calmly work through options. Not impressed."

Gosh. It would be nice if someone besides Hulkenburg set a time.

FP1s usually aren't too exciting, unless one of the lower teams crash.

What's amazing is that in Canada this year it seemed like they all ran and for most of the session. Perhaps I was just caught up in the moment.

Button's gearbox doesn't sound right.

They probably did run a lot more in Canada, I believe Pirelli had them testing a prototype tire that was set for a later race (Valencia if I'm not mistaken). With the summer break coming up after this race, the teams and Pirelli probably aren't as desperate for testing at this point.

What was up with Vettel's hand!?

He was trying to hide it.
