Massa
Kimmi
Hambone
Alonso
MW
Nick
DC
Kubica

Massa for pole.

The Ferraris were quickest in testing, I think Massa is still a tad more comfortable with the chassis than Kimmi is.
Hambone is a tad more reckless than Alonso, it has paid off so far.
RedBull's new seamless g'box better not drop a thread.
Nick won't let DC past 8)

With the new chicane, I reckon handling thu T15, and into-out of t1 are going to be all important. This is an aero circuit, (only 64% of the lap on full throttle)......the boyos better get the tyre choices right 8)

:D Greetings Mates!

It's been so long since the last race, I've almost forgotten :roll: about F1.

Nah. You know that ain't true.

Anyway. No time today for much commentary. Here's me crazy picks (this is in an effort to move out of the bottom of the 200's)

Pole: Kimi
1. Kimi
2. Felipe
3. Lewis
4. Fernando
5. Nick H.
6. Fisi
7. Robert, the Pole
8. Webbo

Cheers! (and, should I be in the least bit prophetic, I promise to CROW unmercifully for weeks!) :D :D

Damn, damn, damn.
:bang: :bang: :bang:
No 1st 3 for pole, 4 of 8 in the top 8.

It's going to be a pretty miserable round.
