Actually it's been raining all day and I also hope it rains a lot tomorrow so probably we can have a dry weekend. But If it rains, like I said, it's not going to affect race as much as it did last year, track is prepared for such events this time. The problem is the number of yellows we can have under water and this track seems to be better on dry conditions IMO, it provides more racing competition when you don't have to worry about losing grip all the time you push the throttle. Not talking about the good drivers who can handle these situations, talking about those who can't, so too many yellows in sequence may f*ck this race so badly.

You wouldn't be singing the praises of the circuit if it wasn't in Brazil anyway, so there's a bit of bias there too.

I don't care if it's insanely wet and need to be rescheduled. I won't go to work on monday anyway (i rather do nothing at home that in a plant 2 hours from home), and tuesday is a holiday.

Of course there's bias, I know IndyCar wouldn't renew the race contract If a car hits a bump at 200 miles per hour and flies on the way to the Tiete river, that's not boat racing. :D

Helio Castroneves arrived late for today's press conference. The reason: terrible traffic, as Tuesday is holliday (Labor Day), many people will merge it with Monday in order to have a 4-day weekend: it has been registred 168 km of traffic jam today.

I vote Yara too, despite small boobies, but she's the cutest one. Level this year is not that high.

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.
