Dramatic as in the odd crash and people driving in to each other. Apart from that very little excitement and very little true overtaking.

At least it was raining outside and I had nothing else better to do. I used to love F1 as a kid, now I only watch it to pass the time. How long can it survive like this?

Slick tyres confirmed. Should make a difference. Hopefully.

I hope so to. Also they've banned all those little aero wings and bits and pieces, i.e. the dumbo wings on the front of the honda would be banned under next years regs so aero grip and the chance to recover aero grip is reduced as well.

And also maybe a little battery power Gonna start using "Kinetic Energy Recovery System" - i.e. store energy from braking into batteries and the drivers can use them like a boast.

Sadly, this means Brit Anthony Davidson is out of a job. Shame that.

Turkey then.

Massa's took pole and the win last year and the year before but can he beat an on-form Kimi or the improved McLarens? It was a Fiat 1-2 last year so fingers crossed that it doesn't happen again.

Seems like the Fiats are taking a while to get their rubber up to temperature so their early pace might not be so strong. The McLaren's are the opposite so they should be quick in qualifying tomorrow.

I'd be happy if Hamilton finishes ahead of Raikkonen when the chequered flag falls on Sunday.

SHUT UP JAMES ALLEN YOU ANNOYING C*NT.

FFS 20 drivers in the race, you'd never guess would you, I thought there was only one.

I wander how many times he has said "Lewis Hamilton" during the course of this race.
