Lewis should win, i think the Mclarens will be in their element in Canada.

I hope Mark Webber wins, he has been in good form recently and deserves another win, hopefully he will if Vettel doesn't crash into him.

I doubt it, but anything can happen too bad that safety cars don't make things interesting like they did when you had to have fuel stops.

yeah true, but for everyone's sake it should be a close race, but i guess who wins had the best car on the day.

The question that should be always be asked about this race is how many people are going into the wall at turn 13? If the teams are as close as they were last race again I can see a couple of drivers into the wall trying to push too hard.

Are you talking about the Wall of Champions? Maybe just one crash. It hasn't claimed all that many victims.

It's nice to have a GP back at this circuit. I still remember the race in 2007: Takuma Sato overtaking Ralf Schumacher and Fernando Alonso, Anthony Davidson hitting a groundhog, and Kubica's awful crash.

It's the walls at the second chincane that can catch a driver out, even the first chicane too. It's a demanding track, we may even see the Lotus in the mix of the midfield, Canada is definately THAT type of race. Glad to see it back on the calendar myself.

Quote from JPeace :

Doesn't Red Bull have their F-Duct for this race?

yeah i think they do for this round

I heard they are waiting till valencia.

im calling a redbull 1-2 with vettel leading the way after T1 on a quite wet sunday ( thunderstorms are forecasted ffs! i dont wanna get wet while spectating!), but mark taking the pole on a dry saturday.....


oh, to those who will be there, i will be moving around the place trying to find a photo spot.... PM me for cell# if u wanna meet up


e: you gotta love Montreal.... the whole weekend is sold out .. http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/84301 bernie should learn a lesson from this race..

Silverstones been sold out for years now and look what he tryed to do there. He just wants facilities.

Enjoy the race but i don't see the red bulls winning tbh. The McLarens had uber race pace at turkey so provided qually is good i see it being McLaren first, but red bull probably taking the rest of the podium spots.

...as long as there are Governments willing to spend vast amounts of money on hosting GPs I don't think he really cares how many turn up to actually watch it in the flesh. He still gets the millions watching it on TV anyway!

Great coverage at the moment on the BBC site, with Heidfeld in the commentary box.

ye nick gave a nice alternative insight. I would like to take this moment to take back my statement. The Mercedes are looking like the strong second team not RBR..

Button fastest in FP1

Besides, Bernie doesn't get a penny from the ticket sales anyway. What he get is the advertising (track side), selling broadcasting rights, and the millions paid by whoever from each track/GP organisers.

Nick is the most is the closest anyone will get to hearing a dead person speak, they guy is completely boring. I WAS #1 IN THE TOP SPEED WANKING!

You're a strange guy. Nick has a great sense of humour imo, and always says what he thinks. He even said something was "bullshit" earlier (though I was trying to revise at the time and didn't catch it all). His insight was great I thought.

Gary is equally interesting to listen to atm.

I don't wanna hear Paffett either, I'd rather put my hand in a plug socket than listen to him mindlessly plug Mercedes every chance he gets..

Any weather forecasts?

Near bottom.

Oh great. The sun is coming out on the wrong day.

Ok, I start dancing.
