Get the baklava in! Its Turkey time again.

Massa goes well here doesnt he? - Would be a huge mental boost for him if he can top Alonso here... however if he doesnt beat him this weekend, I think I can write his own personal challenge off for this season (and probably his drive in a red car next season too... sadly)

I genuinely don't know which way to call this one, but here's the William Hill odds:

Vettel 7/4
Webber 12/5
Alonso 5/1
Hamilton 6/1
Button, Massa 12/1
Rosberg, Schumacher, Kubica 25/1


Probably the only ones who have a realistic chance of winning, seeing as next best odds go to Sutil at 100/1

I agree...but I doubt we'd get decent odds on that!

[Flying Toilet]

I think another Red Bull 1/2. Mclarens will be good but I think the next RB upgrade will keep the gap between them.

Webber to win!

I've lost track on err my tracks.. Is Turkey one of the better tracks to watch or one to Sky+ and watch at x12 pace?

It's one of the newer tracks . . . . . . but not that bad

Pretty good apart from Mickey Mouse final 2 turns. One good section for outbraking (turn 10?) and the very fast quadruple lefthander.

...I would guess, that Ferrari will be quite strong here?

Still would predict the Red Bull's will be the fastest though.

Hopefully it's a close one.

[ajprice]

I do think Massa is good at Turkey too, hopefully he'll beat Fred. Schumacher's up turn will carry on now that he likes his car. Williams carry on fighting their way to the back of the grid.

I think Red Bull's will run off at the front though, on the other hand they'll probably break .

[FourWheelDrift]

I think it will be a close 1,2,3 and that's just the spectators bothering to turn up.

Turn 8

[Scuffers]

can't see Webber beating Vettel here...

[Fire99]

Thanks chaps for the replies regarding my TV viewing.

Ahh that's where 'Turn 8' is. It's all coming back to me. I'll bite the bullet (ok the Pizza ) and watch the race at normal pace.

I think Vettel may be back on top or perhaps Button may be on the ummm button.. I'd rather like to see a Button, Hamilton 1-2. It's worth my 11p bet methinks.

Its time Mclaren assert themselves, instead of looking like playing catchup and holding on. But I reckon they'll have some serious opposition in Ferrari and Mercedes. Particularly, I'd like Button to do well without too many negatively confounding variables, so we can accurately assess his 2010 form.
