Anyone care to wager how many engines we see go pop this weekend? They have never encountered this level of mechanical stress before.

Makes you wonder what kind of 'direction' Fitzpatrick is trying to take them in. Booth isn't exactly inexperienced when it comes to running a team.

I noticed that Mercedes are letting the car rev higher than usual, There doing around 13,000rpm down the straight.

As you may expect it sounds better as a result, Bit louder as well.

I like the look of this track, has a street circuit feel to it in some places.

Can't wait to see those stands full for the race, can see it being a similar atmosphere to Brazil with passionate fans. Not the soul-less middle eastern tilke-dromes.

As for no gravel traps or changing the track, I dont give a fuck. Its somewhere new.

They found a deep cut on the set of slicks he was on & didn't want to bolt on a new set until FP2.

On the OnBoard-Mix I saw Hamilton hit 363kph at the end of the straight.

I saw the Ferrari's doing around 355kph, Renault's around 340kph & I didn't see a representative figure from the Honda.
