Okay, "not even a half of a half better than half"

Means 37.5%

Yeah, I worked it out

Anyway, latest forecast is that there will be showers throughout the morning, meaning a damp start is likely. Thunderstorms are predicted, meaning that there is 12mm of rain anticipated, which sounds like a lot

Bring it on :D, Heidfeld grabs his first win with Kovalainen on the podium behind Di Resta. Vettel has a crash with Webber, Alonso, Hamilton and Button in the first corner. Also HRT grabbing points as they finish six and seven behind De la Rosa and D'Ambrosio.






Ah, it's good to dream :)....

If it is wet at the start and we get a standing start, when was the last time that happened? Australia last year? Because China was dry at the start that year, Korea got SC-ed. Seems way too long.

If it is really wet, it'll be interesting to see if anyone tries a 0 stopper

let's see if the tyres can hold out that long. First time a wet Pirelli race. And McLaren would benefit with their setup right?

If that run is 100m, and the track is 10m wide, the additional distance to cover is 0.5m. At 250kph it takes 0.007 seconds to cover it. Not enough for Massa!

This is conservative, the gained time would be probably less. The stretch is probably way longer than 100m, the speed at finish line maybe higher than 250kph, and don't forget the loss of traction from the very slight loss of grip due to following a slightly dirtier line.

In the end, it doesn't seem to make up time, better focus on driving the smoothest, grippiest line possible and not the geometrically shortest. PHYSICS, BIATCH ;)
