David, how do they typically do the summer races that air in the afternoon on Fox? I may try to make it to Fado's Sunday - just down the street from me.

Go Schumi!
Really hopeful to see him win this one.

As big as a Kimi fan I am. He doesn't do well at German GPs. Let's hope he breaks that this weekend.

In case anyone missed it, Schumi crashed with 4 min left of FP2...

He claims to have not been concentrating and was messing with his buttons while communicating on the radio. All four sides of the car were badly damaged.

Ouch! Webber penalized 5 grid positions for an unscheduled gearbox change! So he joins grosjean & rosberg who also got hit w/ the same penalty.
