AcidHell2 - listen to CBBC commentary instead - they were just explaining why the cars seems to have 'sparklers' attached to the back of them sometimes

That was brundle wasn't it

So 30laps in and only 4 overtakes (weve seen) outside of the pit stops so far - Monaco (without a spectacular crash) as interesting as normal

...

In other news - I wonder if dannyjos had his baby yet?

I might put the CBBC coverage on, it was bloody hilarious last GP.

There's no way to hear the CBBC commentry outside of the live race, is there? I want to hear the proper commentry here, but then listen again with the CBBC

You could have the CBBC commentary on the telly and put the radio on for radio 5 live?

Hmm....gonna be interesting to see what the 1 stoppers do - the Super softs appear to be 2-3secs slower after 10 or less laps so surely they HAVE to switch to 2 stops, with the last one around lap 68-70 for a short stint.

Interesting thought:

Refueling is banned for next year, and they can't really qualify on a full tank - will we see the return of proper qualifying on fumes?!

iviv · 24 May 2009 at 13:48

Sky +, got two things recording so can't use the red button services

NightSt@lk3r · 24 May 2009 at 13:49

CBBC commentry "i would have though aero dynamics is how you make chocolate bars"

I thought that was already presumed when it was announced - cant do it any other way...

Was a while ago when it was announced...

Good to see Ferrari having decent pace! Massa is absolute on the edge!

Its no good, im gonna have to put it on.

With Ferrari still to use the prime tyres, and the lap-times they're currently pulling, they're going to be all over Barry at the end of the race.

iviv · 24 May 2009 at 13:53

*Sulks for 10 minutes until the sky+ is freed up to let me red button*

Don't forget though, they need to use the super soft tyres still! The KERS should be more useful around here as well as the track is in general, slow. But is is good to see some more competition!

iviv · 24 May 2009 at 13:57

Massa's getting shouted at for cutting that corner.

Over Clocker · 24 May 2009 at 13:58

Webber does a 1:15.5 !!
