That's fab - thanks for the link.

Now, all we need to do is Stop The Cock. Why can't Brundle and Blundell commentate, instead of The Cock?

Good question. At least with the live timings you don't have to rely on The Cock to update you on who's doing what etc etc.

Are those spots of rain I spy on the camera?

Yep, if you click on the tabs on the right hand side of the live timings screen you get all of the weather info.

I do hope that it rains though, that will mix things up a little

Looking pretty darned overcast...

Fingers crossed for a shuffling of the deck, AKA a good rain shower.

It would be great if it rained, becasue it's so humid over there I imagine when it rains it really chucks it down.

Doh, a mate gave me a couple of quid to put a bet on Fiscella and I missed the deadline.

He is a bit of a Fiscella fan, also gave me £2 to put on last week, managed to get the bet on last week!

What were the odds just out of interest?

because blundell can barely string a sentence together?

I'd rather listen to James Allen than Blundell.

If you have your PC you could always turn the sound off on the TV and along with the F1 live timing you can tune into Radio Five Live and listen to the alternative commentary.

I watch it on speed, so unfortunately don't get to listen to Brundle, (who is up there amongst the best when it comes to commentary in my opinion), BUT we do get Peter Windsor doing a pre-race grid walkabout. While he is a great chap, I find myslef attempting to spot Brundle on his walkabout, rather than listening to Windsor!
