^ yeah, but there were some good duels anyways. The spray was crazy and two cars going into a heavy braking zone at the same time was always dodgy.
Lots of spinny action too

That's what the MotoGP guys thought last weekend when they got hit with crazy rain on race Sunday. They had to delay the race until Monday night.
Should be a good race regardless of weather (and yeah, I wouldn't bet on it being wet either lol)

Great race for Vettel. Hopefully flabio will stfu with this result.
1) RB have a single element diffuser.
2) Brawn went to the FOTA last year to say, do you want to change this loophole, and Renault said no.
Pretty simple!
Ferrari is fucked. Kimi was slow as molassis compared to Lewis, but at least he didnt throw it off the track as many times! I think the new (last couple of years) Ferrari is just slow in the rain in general. Kimi AND massa cannot be that bad, can they?

^ Exactly!
Flavio can suck it. They already had an alternate diffuser ready to go and low and behold Alonso did relatively well this weekend once it was installed!
And yeah, Ferrari is right fucked.
Both Red Bulls were flying!

I'm having a hard time deciding between Red Bull and Brawn this weekend for fantasy f1. RB are on the way up, but this is a dry track, and one that I think would favour the twin diffuser so...Brawn? A lot of people attributed RB's 1-2 last weekend to the rain.

^ that's a tough call.
RB was worlds ahead of everyone (double diffuser or not) last week. Not sure why the diffuser gang couldn't keep closer to the pace given the downforce advantage.
I'm guessing that RB might have dialed in more wing in a wet-race gamble that worked brilliantly. They were light on fuel at the start by a big margin too.
My gamble pick is either Toyota this weekend. They were fast in Aus and in China quali. Glock has shown greta pace, and Trulli has been fast (for Trulli lol) but he's consistent enough that he could steal the win.

Should be a good race today.
Fuel loads at the front should make for some interesting action.

I'm betting on Vettel this weekend, he's always good when he is well placed.

^ He's been fast all weekend, and fueled longer than the Toyotas. He could do it again for sure, which would be good to see.
I'd like to see one of the Toyota's finally win, but Trulli often self-destructs when he's in a position to win like this lol

well vettel 2nd and truli 3rd, your predictions were not far off! too bad about webbber, might have done alright if he had a better qualifying! i'm enjoying this season a lot so far! it would be interesting to see if the bubble bursts at brawn and some of the big names make a move with the upcoming car upgrades.
