God this commentator makes me cringe, so embaressing.

Please rain.

Are you on Sky?
We've switched to BBC for race feed for all races they have live. Sky might have Brundle but that other guy (Croft?) is atrocious!

Possibly saving tyres? Well out of turbulent air?

Ah Maldonardo "somebody crossed my line" is a dubious line

CaptainRAVE · 27 May 2012 at 13:26

Rain could be interesting with all of these marbles building up.

Maldonado really is a tool. He got what he deserved this weekend IMO.

I find this quite odd, as last year when Crofty was doing all the FP sessions he got nothing but praise.

Given a choice between DullC and errr, thing... or MB and Crofty, I'll take sky every time.

Alonso does fastest race lap? Suddenly realised it's Sunday!

I don't think he works in the races. He's far too excited, like he fuels up on class A materials before each race.
I prefer not to have constant shouting over my race feed!

Could be going for a longer stint and hoping he can go straight to wets instead of making two stops.

The pit stops will be amusing if they all come in around the same time.

Alonso is smart, he knows no one can get round him. Good move.

Nice to see Caterham matching a McLaren for speed...

CaptainRAVE · 27 May 2012 at 13:30

Wow, alonso opening up a gap and a half.

Williams, Fauxtus, Caterham, HRT and Sauber won't have any problems with having to queue drivers.

Love the slow mo shota

Flibster · 27 May 2012 at 13:32

Oh god.... 15 lapsish until rain. So tyre saving, fuel saving and possible need for a tyre change for wets....

There goes any chance of a Mclaren win. Strategy needed.

Fauxtus

I like that name, should be their official title till they sort it out next season...

I'm sure it will work out tremendously for Button.

So when I decided to go downstairs and grab some lunch because I didn't
think i'd miss anything, I was right.

Rain please!

Yeah it's Sky, he has a horrendous commentating voice and the comments he comes out with are do cringey.

mmj_uk · 27 May 2012 at 13:34

Vettel cutting corners again.

Flibster · 27 May 2012 at 13:35

Heikki in the Caterham is doing the same laptimes as all the guys ahead up to 7th place.
His Caterham seems to be working here.

With rain, a point could be a reality.
