Hard tyres hit the cliff at 25 laps.
Hamilton has to do 30.... Errrr. Oh dear.

He's **** with tyres though. Button would be able to do the whole season on one set of super softs and still have enough rubber remaining on them to make a new gimp suit for Thwax Mosley.

Except Button was shocking on his set of softs earlier.

Fernando Alonso wins.

Mclaren should take a gamble, pit hamilton and set him to kill. Cant see him getting to the end as is.

It's going to be ****ed by DRS

Yeah

Kimi could be a contender

No way will he get to the end before his tyres reach the cliff.

Wait a sec, when the hell did Alonso get so close?

EDIT: 1:26.9 by Raikonnen. :eek:

Will Alonso and Pastor really need to stop again??

But they came off in pristine condition.

If you ignore the flat spot, but that wasn't his fault. New brake material means he couldn't get the balance right. And an elephant squirted water at him from the stands. And his girlfriends ex boyfriend was mooning him from a hot air baloon above the track.

I may be in an extremely sarcastic mood...

Nope, on Sky.

What's he saying?

Maldonado approaching a red mobile chicane.

CaptainRAVE · 13 May 2012 at 14:20

Massa to get in the way?

King Damager · 13 May 2012 at 14:21

I want them to pit Lewis, get it right, and have him race through the pack at the end, would be interesting to watch, rather than see him end up like Kimi....

Alonso is going to clearly win, but I feel like he kind of deserves it at his home grand prix.

Haha, or not.

Doohickey · 13 May 2012 at 14:22

What makes a bigger difference, KERS or DRS in terms of extra speed? Hopefully Pastor can hold off Alonso without using KERS through the lap and save it to fight off Alonso's DRS down the straight
