Shaping up to being quite a good race today.

Yeah, plenty happening, Alonso out, Red Bull having a nightmare in the pits, Button struggling and Hamilton walking away with it!

Still plenty left in this one me thinks....

[Cheese]

As much as i loved seeing Lewis win on Sunday, i'm not geting my hopes up that he will challenge in the upcoming races. Still it was a well deserved win for him.

Press conference called for later this morning, it sounds as though BMW are about to pull out.......

I can't find a link, but the sports news on the radio is full of it.

Michael Schumacher is returning to F1, YES it's true, let joy be unconfined.

Schumacher makes shock F1 return

Michael Schumacher will make a shock return to Formula 1 to replace injured Ferrari driver Felipe Massa, news agencies are reporting.

The seven-time world champion retired at the end of 2006 but has agreed to drive at the European Grand Prix.

Massa fractured his skull in Hungarian GP qualifying and may be out for the rest of the year.

Schumacher has been a team advisor but on 23 August will race an F1 car for the first time since April 2008.

More to follow.

Great news

[Trina]

Go back into retirement!

[Gunflash]

Schumacher back!

It'll be great to see how old man Schumacher goes. If McLaren and Ferrari can keep on going like how they did in Hungary we could see a great Schumacher/Hamilton battle. Also maybe this could be a kick up the backside for Raikkonen.

Eddie Jordan got mugged off live on the BBC

Wow! What a qualifiying sesh so far!!!
Button starts the GP in 14th cos he went out.
Vettel will start the GP 15th cos he went out.

Barrichello sneaks into the top 10 and gets one more chance in the final qualifying sesh.


Compelling viewing!

That was amazing from Barrichello but i bet Button will win the title tomorrow because rain will stop the race and half points will be given.



The forecast for tomorrow is shocking

[Irish_Gooner]

Could be a washout tomorrow indeed. Jenson isnt really making it easy for himself is he. On current form he doesnt deserve the title. Barrichello has some chance tomorrow on a track he grew up on

[Reverend Gooner]

I can't wait for the race tomorrow, i am itching like a kid on christmas eve

[gzagee]

Yeah this might be one helluva race if mother nature allows.

That is such BS... I hate statements like that, because we all know he would be hailed as one of the greatest drivers ever if the season's results were reversed and he made a big comeback after a bad start...

He deserves the title either way for the total of his performances this year.
