Dropped a right clanger by leaving his cars in the pits - both of them got relegated five places for racing through the debris. -
I got up to watch at 5am
It was very exciting, very messy and it certainly kept me awake. Can't see the point of that gravel trap as it behaved more like concrete when the cars hit it.
Looking forward to the race with some trepidation ...+50 Xeno Geek Points

The Sky+ programme guide is pretty smart if changes are made to programme schedules, but I don't know about last minute changes, especially extensions.Comment

I think there must have been a long queue to punch Buemi when the penalties were handed out.
Anyone know where the Brawn cars are on fuel?+50 Xeno Geek Points

Reasonable fuel load - essentially the same as Vettel on pole.

Button's main problem is that he has two KERS cars around him, just itching to press their button (no pun intended) off the start.Comment

Then the stewards noticed that he didn't slow down at all in the yellow flag zone and zoomed through the debris as fast as everyone else. He only slowed when he caught up to a very slow Buemi (i.e. he had no choice).
So he got a grid penalty as wellComment
