Oh good stuff. That will spice things up.

Sat in KL, any one who can tell you the weather on Sunday is guessing, In rained at 3.30 Pm yesterday, didn't rain Monday. planned race start is 3pm Sunday, not looking like it will rain today, currently 1.30PM, but anthing can happen in the next half hour.

It's a power circuit so I think it's a Mercedes powered podium of Hamilton, Rosberg, and Bottas.

Next 3 I think will be Vettel, Massa, and Raikkonen.

Seems a good place to put this

I see that F1Technical are getting quite excited about the Mercedes Fuel Flow issues. I'm not sure that I quite understand it at a tech level - but it does offer a possible explanation as to why the works cars are so much quicker than the customer cars.

The way F1 deals with rain will mean this race will be a safety car train...

Looking at that thread it's a lot of speculation over nothing.

So what are the odds on a Manor car leaving the pits under it's own power this weekend?

[Blib]

Both Alonso and Bottas cleared to race this weekend.

High. I would guess that Ferrari would want to ensure their engine runs, even at reduced power for testing mileage/data if nothing else.

[suffolk009]

I see that Alonso is now claimed the steering was faulty.

Alonso will need to pass a final medical on Thursday.

It will be about the only thing he will pass this weekend.

Nah, he'll pass plenty. When they break down, blow up or when his team mate is told to pull over
"Jenson, Fernando is a teensy weensy bit faster than you"

More accurately...

"Jenson, Fernando is less slow than you"

[groomi]

I'd expect Jenson to come back with some witty retort along the lines of 'well then I don't need to slow down for him to overtake me then'...

Alonso - crocodile smile as he stirs up the mud?

Sutil is the reserve driver for Williams this weekend if Bottas isn't able to compete. Kind of a kick in the teeth for Susie & Alex Lynn.

Nico is running extra wings this weekend:
