Does look a brilliant circuit to be fair, although i can see some people going into them walls as they are mighty close to the circuit.
I think Hamilton's struggling because he failed to get pole, the only plus he has is that he is a better starter than the rest and his Mclaren is much much faster than the red bull's in the 1st sector so hopefully he will make up a few places from the start.
Think i will get up to watch it, need to go bed 1st though lol

Yea it is good, I've been driving it none stop on the F1 game so its well and truly dialled into my brain fro the race , there will deffo be a couple of safety cars I think.
If it rains it will be very very interesting!
Is there any point going to bed now?

So, who's back up to watch it? Looks mighty wet, and starting behind safety car, will make the start a little boring!
Apparently the concrete entry to the pits will be fun - I haven't watched any of it this weekend so far, but Brundle said they used cones rather than placing men at the speed limit line in the pits as they were worried about grip levels - and that was in the dry!

they get paid millions a year to drive around a track, it's only a bit of water. Poofs. So what if you can't see a foot in front of you
cant remember a race being abandoned before, but it's looking a possibility at the moment

I think we should all assume that North Korea have built a weather machine and this is them showing the world the awesome power of it. First the korean GP next China will be under water.
Race to resume at 5 past

Hamilton up to 2nd after the stops. At least the safety cars are closing the grid and hopefully making a bit more racing than there would of been
and back to third on the first corner of the restart! Doh

YESSS!!!!!
If only Hammy hadn't locked up after the restart, he'd be leading right now
Incidentally does anybody know why Lewis didn't get a 5 place grid drop for changign his gearbox? his 3rd gear went in the last race?
