Am I right in thinking that its the FIA patch on the back of the collor of the overalls?

If so then why do the teams suddenly have overalls which don't have it on them? I looked back at some other races from this year & from what I could see that FIA patch was on the overall's so why is it suddenly not this weekend?

It's not that the patch isn't present, it's that the FIA for some reason demands them to be sewn-on patches rather than transfers.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Track dry atm. Good, as it's usually means more action.

Seems like they have put a bit of more kerb in turn 4 (exit of Mercedes Arena) so drivers won't use run-off there.

Buemi gets stuck on gravel at turn 5.

Alonso fastest while the session ends.

Is it just me or something wrong with broadcast or has the Renault painted the gold bits with coffee cream beige now? Looks awful! :yuk:

Does the FIA have a face-palm-team? Thinking of new ways to make the fans face-palm?

whats next? Haircuts must be submitted before or at the first race and can only change once a season?

Since when did Karthikeyan replace Liuzzi? That completely passed me by somewhere. Or was that just for FP1?

Going to stay dry for the remainder of the day, tomorrow and sunday however....

And after experiencing a never ending monsoon-like shower here yesterday, I would expect anything. Except some snow.
