I honestly can't forsee anyone but Vettel winning.

On a side note, how nice was Mansell writing to Vettel? He was always acerbic to the press (wonder why) but he's such a gent. Absolute hero of mine.

Really nice bloke, my mom's known him since they worked together in Lucas before he gave it up to become a professional driver - he used to give her a lift home after work in his mini.

Top bloke. People go on about various people but to a man they've been well financed. Mansell is a normal bloke who put everythng on the line to get in to F1 and persevered through enormous difficulties. One of the few people I would love to meet.

It's because by and large the press were and are cunts.

Note how he treated say Murray Walker as a counterpoint.

Problem is that Mansell loves talking about himself, making a meal of things and being a whiner.

Err, John... what exactly are you doing right here?

Another intro to Amon Tobin's music.

Stunning intro

Eddie is wearing a curtain.

[Guest]

Missed qualifying Yesterday so today is the first time I've seen Jensen's Mo. Beautiful!

[Halkyon]

Eddie is wearing a curtain.

Looks like very classy forest camouflage to me.

[Dandy_Sephy]

Was Ted trolling Webber when asking if he can get ahead at the start?

[Halkyon]

More Amon Tobin in the Lewis Hamilton section. Somebody at the BBC is a fan.

[mexos]

I fancy Hamilton to have this, he should have been on pole.

[Cheeko]

I love the way when Lewis is interviewed he really stops to think about his response and you feel he's responding from the heart, giving you the truth about how he feels.

He's a good guy, I hope he can get everything in order again.

[Dudley]

Where was Brundle 17 years ago? Finishing on the podium in that race Jake.

Wing Commander Button looks very serious.

[mexos]

So the cobbler is only 5 points behind Britney. I really hope he does it.

Button looks like he should be stepping into one of these, rather than an F1 car.

[mexos]

3 year deal for Britney... I see him taking over the record held by this guy.

[Dandy_Sephy]

EJ of all people talking to Ronaldo

[Dudley]

My god that man ate Ronaldo!

[Guest]

Legend. A true beast of football.

[Dudley]

See this is why Eddie justifies his existence, just storms in there and they actually talk to him. It's very difficult to find people who can do that and even harder to find those that'll get away with it.

Afternoon chaps

[mexos]

I want to like DiResta, but he's too much like DC when he was driving. I find him very dull and monotone.

[Sidewaysbob]

I think that might just be car. Give him a front line car and he'll do just fine.

[myoozikk]

Come on Lewis!!!

[Guest]

The guys at the back have a nice little launch ramp at the start.

[Sidewaysbob]

come lewis let stick it to the rest of the bastards.

Disagree, I think he's a very clever driver and gets a lot out of a car that shouldn't be that high up the field.

For the record I also think Sutil's talented.

COME ON!!!!!!

I meant his personality.
