That is good news indeed. Time to check time zones



Webber? You mean Alonso? I missed Webber keeping his old tires. Knew Kimi and Alonso left theirs on and it was a huge mistake.
I know Heidfeld was ripping the times up.

My point was the Raikkonen was catching Hamilton, then on the tire gaff he went from 5 seconds back to 20 seconds back in one lap.

Massa can't drive in the rain, plain and simple.

No, I meant Webber. That's why he fell back again (had made it back up to 10th at that point.) I'm Australian so sorta follow him a little bit, although I know not to expect too much. Alonso was another, but unfortunately just after the Raikkonen stop it started raining again. So much that Barichello was on the fullwet tyre and about 30 seconds a lap faster than anyone else at one point.

I was surprised by Webber's second place starting position, yet unsurprised by his spin on the first lap.
Everyone on the track had trouble at one point, especially Massa.
I do not like the rain races. While they make for good entertainment, they do not make for good driving.

Webber has proved he is quick over 1 lap and seems to have the head to be a frontrunner but whenever he is up the front things seem to go wrong for him. Hopefully there aren't too many comparisons of Hamilton with Senna after such a dominant display. ( I don't mind the guy but can't handle the British commentators being so blatantly biased.)

just booked my tickets for Montreal next year, same spot

Sweet!
I'll be losing booking priority this year and will go for seats after Xmas I think.

TSN isn't showing the race live either, so I'll have to catch it in the afternoon and avoid sports news all day.

Yeah, timing isnt great for me either, but I loved those seats.

real bummer we cant see the races live in NA.
I might have to check out that website

and plan on a beer in 2009!!!!

Yeah some planning ahead might help this time
TSN normally shows the races live, but they're pushed back this weekend because of fucking golf.

This should work, I think just b4 the race starts the site video will start working.

I've watched the race and resisted posting in this thread.

All I will say is it is a good race.

Did they already ruin it for you by showing who the highlights before the race?

Nope. I will put on fox at 1:05.

At least we got a pre-race show this time.
Peter Windsor on the grid.

Yeah, TSN's Alternate feed had extra coverage too. Kinda wish I had found it and knew I got it long ago!

LOL this prerace video sums up Kimi's personality pretty accurately
