Let's see all these complaints next year, the team are learning on the job, Sky are very good when it comes to sports coverage. And will constantly be tweaking this season.

They were shadowing at the end of last season and were at a number of races to get to grips with things. Besides its Sky, they're hardly channel 5, they should have enough experience to start with a higher standard than this.
 
Yet another fantastic Q3 and another McLaren front row
Hopefully this time Lewis will get a better start
Pity Kimi has to take a 5 place grid drop for channeling his gearbox
Should be a very food race tommorow
 
So, grid for tomorrow then:

Hamilton
Button
Schumacher
Webber
Vettel (on hard tyres)
Grosjean
Rosberg
Alonso (with no KERS)
Perez
Raikkonen (with 5 place penalty for gearbox change)

Should be a cracker!
 
Schumacher will start from 8th, 5 place penalty for changing gear box after p2

I agree those are a waste of time but it take time to get it right, the football at first as dreadful.
We have been spoilt with BBC coverage it is very very good
 
Race pace and tyre deg is gonna be interesting here and of course the weather is a bit unpredictable. Looking forward to it.
 
Yeah Schumacher does not have a penalty, good chance he might lead into T1 I reckon.

Rosberg choked again, dissapointing so far.
 
Yeah I really expected rosberg to do better than schumacher like last year. Vettel's strategy should be interesting.
 
Schumacher changed his gearbox after he broke it in Australia
There's not a penalty for that

Should be a good race, very surprised to see it being so close at the top, I didn't expect that - just four tenths between 1st and 8th - I thought the McLarens would have a good gap

Hamilton's pole lap wasn't perfect, he could have got a few more tenths between him & Button had he not locked his front left going into the final corner
 
Hopefully Mercedes do well this time around. They have good qualifying sessions but their cars ain't so reliable. Would have loved to see Schumi in the front row battling Hamilton down to turn 1. Great to see him amongst the top 4 in the first two races.
 
What's with Coulthard trying to say foreign names in a strange way, the way he says Kimi is really bugging me.
 
Delighted with another Mclaren 1-2
 
What time foes the race start?

Can you get a stream for it?
 
Sent you a pm Tibs. Excited for this, the uncertainty with the rain could give us an unlikely winner.
