I think *been reading my rulebook here...* thats how the grid should shape up - as Raikkonen completed the lap and Monteiro, Trulli and Montoya didn't, he should be above them - even with the engine penalty.

Thats how I read it though...May be entirely different though.

Shaping up for the first BAR or Toyota win?

BAR is a lot more likely that Toyota - Ralf will go back to being a mobile roadblock again.

5hours and 20 mins and counting... ;)

Don't know about anyone else, but the qualifying sessions aren't really the same when they're not live...

True - I had 20 txt file prepared with all the times in place - just needed to add my notes and the sector splits and then copy and paste after each run.

Far too easy.

But I'm sure most people here knew the results - kind of spoilt the fun though.

You staying up all night then Flib? What are you going to keep yourself amused with? Unless of course you have a hard drive of pr0n, then you'll be fine

Naah - thats all on DVD's in the entertainment section of my backups.

Errr..I mean..What pr0n? ;)

Caffine, DVD's and Dungeon Siege 2

The wonders of having 3 Monitors and a laptop - Laptop playign the DVD and the main PC playing Dungeon Siege 2.

Thinking of mindless fun though - Where did I put those Bond dvd's?

Aha...found them.

I think I'll watch the ones that get me annoyed with their crapness - just to keep me awake.

All the Brosnen ones then. ;)

Following Saturday’s dramatic rain-afflicted qualifying session, the big question today is will it rain for the race? Opinion is divided. Some forecasts are adamant that conditions will be the same as they were on Saturday afternoon, which means we could see a race similar to 1994’s; but some local sages think the bad weather has exhausted itself and that it will be dry. The ambient temperature is expected to be around 25 degrees Celsius, and at present Suzuka is bathed in warm sunshine and is bone dry.

The race should be gripping with the four leading drivers in the title points table all having to thread your way through from the back of the grid.

Suzuka is largely unchanged since it was threatened by typhoon in 2004. The lap length is 5.807 kilometres (3.608 miles) and the race will run over 53 laps for a distance of 307.573 kilometres (191.126 miles). It starts at 14.00 hrs local time which is nine hours ahead of GMT.

So...could be dry - could have showers - could be wet..

Good old weather forecasting. :D
