Oh, I don't know ............ you're only six points behind me and I've failed miserably in several recent races.

Well, I can't see me making any inroads into Toppers lead either overall or for the Asia & Americas Cup. I could drastically alter my team so that it differs completely to anyone elses, but I can't see Hispania, Lotus and Virgin finishing on the podium. Unless everyone elses engines blow up a la Vettel that is. I believe both Alonso and Massa are both on engine #8 of 8 but I can't see it happening!!

Looking at the weather forecast I think it could be another lottery for the drivers as rain is expected at some point in the weekend, although we have heard that before, IIRC last year the grid was all over the place and Jenson produced a champions drive from 15th place on the grid to clinch the crown.

Yes fantastic race at Brazil, loved every minute of it. Lets hope this year is as good a race. The Mclaren boys have all to drive for and not much to loose, and their in a better position engine wise than either Red Bull or Ferrari. But personally my money is on Webber for the drivers champion this year.

Just watching the pre-quali yak yak yak on BBC1HD.

The difference between this upscaled non-native HD and the original 576i on 101 is absolutely massive.

Doesn't make Eddie Jordan any more interesting, though.

Gawd I hope Brazil is dropped off the calender. What a spectacularly dull race up till Liuzzi decided to try a 3 wheeler F1 car....

The track is so short its more like a Scalextric track than a motor racing circuit.

Have to say whilst it wasn't exciting I found it absorbing. Yes it's a short circuit but at least there are overtaking opportunities. LOL AS, you're turning into Victor Meldrew!!

Better than turning into a layby.

I'll get my coat - call me a taxi.




Database still closed ............. hoping to go from 7th to 6th after a decent (yet unspectacular) Quali. and Race.

You are still 7th.

Congratulations to the top 12 who all scored over a ton, and to Topper who scored a magnificent 139.

Short and full table attached as png file

Topper is in to the top 10 in the world, an incredible raise to stardom when one considers the Tossers could only finish last season in 5th in SupaLiga. A 7th place finish in Abu Dhabi is still within reach.

The entire top 12 were centurions, but the happiest of the lot is probably kreacher, whose Creatures scored 129pts at Interlagos to increase his advantage over Daz and BTTR to 19pts and now looks odds on for a PFF1 Cup place.

The only positional movement was between B16MCC (Dreambox) and pazinho (Outcast), swapping 15th and 16th positions.


Norm's F1 SupaAberdeen in the Professional League: Current status - 57th ~ 1560pts


LAST RACE > ABU DHABI GP @ YAS ISLAND > NOVEMBER 14

Well, it will be classy when it's on the grid. The livery has to be one of the most famous and admired in F1 history. I've always had a soft spot for Lotus since my friend Chris raced a Lotus 51 FF in the mid 1970's. We did run it in green and yellow though, so in a way, I'm sorry to see that superceded again. Let's hope they can eventually repeat the success that black and gold brought them before.
