Tobias, would you promise to do the Gangnam style dance if Kimi won the Korean GP? :p

Anyone know which teams are getting the higher top speeds on the long straight? I find it interesting, particularly at this track because of the long straight being right after T1, with the leader being so vulnerable.

Well....I'm afraid to say that Vettel is already pole position and already winner of the 2012 Korean GP. Did you see that? It took only some two simple laps on the red super soft tyres to get the 1st position. Only 2 fucking flying laps...

What Red Bull has done in this car in the last 3 races? They are now as good as they were last year during the entire year.

Championship contenders are fast on the fastest tyres. What a revelation.

Probably this cool thing called "working on the car."

EJ seems to think Senna will be alongside De La Rosa at HRT next year.

Also thinks Hulkenberg will be at Sauber alongside Kamui with Sutil or Algersuari replacing him at Force India.

Sky have Mark Blundell with them this weekend!? What the fuck? Why don't they just go get James Allen to complete the shitness?

That's unfair on James, who is much better than he was in 2007/8. Listened to Legard yesterday in FP2. Painful.

He recently had a massive hissy fit on his blog that Perez lied and said he hadn't signed for McLaren. Given he works in the industry, you'd imagine he'd know that they can't go around talking about this stuff.

Sorry, I've got no time for him. He had years to improve, and he just kept getting worse and worse.

Pic becomes the first driver to get engine penalty this season, so he will likely start from the last place on the grid.

I missed that. We know from the stories that McLaren only properly contacted Perez the day before it was announced. Well, apparently.

The only way Vettel won't get the pole is if his alternator gives up

Karthikeyan spins and was not very far from taking one FI with him.
