Race underway again.

Australia pulled away...

Brazil on a flyer...

LewisStuart · 25 Sep 2005 at 15:32

the commentator is drowned out with fog horns and engines on the live stream

not that I don't like the engines

Flibster · 25 Sep 2005 at 15:34

Russia spins after contact and the Safety car is out again

Russia is on the exit of a corner - dangerous position

Creature · 25 Sep 2005 at 15:34

Russia in a very dangerous place at the moment :eek:

Flibster · 25 Sep 2005 at 15:35

Australia got a 2 second lead after 1 lap...
Next lap - Brazil pulled him straight back in..

Nelson Piquet Jr is the best driver out there I think

Flibster · 25 Sep 2005 at 15:36

Live timing is stuck on lap 14 for me... :confused:

Flibster · 25 Sep 2005 at 15:37

I would give you a run down of who's where...

But I have no idea..

That goes without saying, expect to see him in F1 within a few years to follow on from his fathers career, he is a future champion.

Australia - Brazil - Mexico - New Zealand - Malaysia

Flibster · 25 Sep 2005 at 15:40

Someone should give Piquet a test after seeing this - Preferably Williams...

Race is underway again.

OK the air horns on the live stream are starting to annoy! Rather just have the engine noises thanx.

Flibster · 25 Sep 2005 at 15:42

0.5s between Australia and Brazil

Flibster · 25 Sep 2005 at 15:44

Brazil all over Australia...

Piquet is trying the inside, outside...

Australia is being a naughty with his blocking...

I'm expecting Brazil to get past soon

Byron5184 · 25 Sep 2005 at 15:45

That is such an amazing camera shot, at least they got the incar footage feeds working today.

Creature · 25 Sep 2005 at 15:45

Brazil trying to get past Australia, but Aus keeps shutting the door so to speak.

Joe T · 25 Sep 2005 at 15:46

Looks like Robbie had an electrical fault.

Flibster · 25 Sep 2005 at 15:46

Brazil pass Australia around the outside with a beautiful move around Surtees

Byron5184 · 25 Sep 2005 at 15:46

Jos Verstappen's skill is showing, has yet to use a power boost atm.

Flibster · 25 Sep 2005 at 15:47

Most teams have used 6-8 powerboots *I think they only have 8*

Netherlands have used NONE...

Waiting for the end maybe?
