After watching that lap onboard im calling it the best pole so far this season, mega lap, the final chicane was out of this world.

Incredible. When the pressure was on, he needed a perfect lap and delivered. Not only was it pole, it was 0.26 clear.
Hamilton was just immense on that final lap
I was on the final straight when Hamilton dialled that lap in 
Loud cheer from me and quite a few people around me.
There's feck loads of Red Bull fans though. Huge cheer when Vettell made it a 1-2 on the grid, before Hamilton crossed the line, and loads of caps and shirts. Where the feck have they all come from?

Do you really need to ask? Same reason there were thousands of red caps in the Schumacher era, Renault blue, then Vodafone red when Hamilton turned up then Brawn white last season.
There's probably more Red Bull fans than Ferrari fans here, which is staggering.
I think F1 is the most glory hunting sport in the world.
Not really, it's called glory hunting, and you're in North America, who glory hunt up there with the best of em!
Does being on the hard tyre give Red bull an advantage ? They could go longer without a stop while the others may stop within 10 laps.
Could go either way, small chance of rain would change everything but its only small. Red Bull's are gonna have to do quite a long stint on the primes from the start but also likely to have to do quite alot of laps on the softs too so depending on how well the hard holds up they might need to 2 stop.
Ideally I think you start on the soft and run it as long as possible, the Red Bull's have taken a gamble on how long they can last on the hards without losing time, if they get to half distance and the hards start to waiver then they are in deep shit.

Are you enjoying Montreal, mate?
Place is rocking tonight.
do we still have a chance of rain today? wondering how many times we may see a safety car out there today!
I'll support anyone from Britain in the F1, regardless of team really.
This year of course i'm a mclaren fan because Lewis and Jenson both drive for them. Aside from that, I have no real loyalty for any team.

im a button fan, will support him whoever he drives for. i dont have a loyalty to any team either
Will be interesting
It seems like the McLarens are hoping for a safety car, so they could be going a long long way on the harder tyres
Surely two stop is going to be the order of the day
Gearbox change for Webber, drops 5 places I believe I'm right in saying, so from second to seventh
Yeh, gearbox is 5 places
Wonder what difference that will make to him, clearly he can't beat Vettel unless something happens, weather/crash/etc, but he should be able to bring himself right back into the podium hunt if he can get some clear air and really hammer the fast laps when those with the softer tyres pit
Hmmm...want to watch this race, but don't want to be an unsociable bastard and have my sunday roast in a different room
im having sunday roast while watching this, its just the right thing to do on a sunday
I know, normally it wouldn't even be an issue, but sister and her boyfriend are coming round...so, it's sort of not on
I've planned on cooking the Sunday Roast while the race is on
Apparently there's very little chance of rain now, shame
One of the few tracks on the that doesn't need rain to be exciting, im intrigued to see how they get on with the softs and how the strategy split might change the outcome. I wouldn't even say Webber is out of it from 7th simply because we just dont know how the softs will last.
Yeh was alluding to the same myself, but it just means that on the same tyres, he's got to expect to finish behind Vettel now, unless as I said above, something happens
Anyone got a link to top speeds at this track for each car??
why are the some teams short fueling ,are they banking on a saftey car at some stage.
If there is not they will be in the shit.

I love Canada 
either lewis or alonso will hit champions wall, maybe both of them.

Button has zero traction
vettel all over hamilton at the moment
hamilton and alonso nearly take each other out in the pits
Why did they ever even consider dropping Canada, it always gives excellent racing.
I love Canada
This is brilliant
Hamilton back in the lead
Cracking race so far, the strategy on tyres is making the race entertaining.
BBC reporting that most teams have problems with tyre's.
could make it more intresting towards the end

Both the prime and the option tyres seem shite...looks like a 3 stopper.
Hamilton pits again , hard tyre's
tyres are going to be fun , Hamlton and Button have no new sets of hard tyre's
the tyre strategy here so far is excellent
