The longer this goes on the more and more I like Hamilton's opinion on this track... this is not right...
Michael's sure having fun testing the track isn't he?

It looks as if everyone is picking up more speed as they test the track.

Will we see any of the leaders pit for rubber if the whole race is under SC conditions?

The two different tire compounds rule still applies, regardless of the two compounds used, correct?

It only applies if it's a completely dry race.

No, the rule goes out the window if there's any rain at all.

No. They don't even have to pit, if they don't go the full race distance - which they won't.

I wanted Mark Webber to win the title, but if he doesnt want to defend it properly I may have to change my mind...

So no tire changes are required at all then? Hmm. I either change to inters now or I wait as long as humanly possible to change my full wets.

That only applies to dry tyres doesn't it? There is only one compound each of inters and wets, isn't there? I just want to see some change in position...

I thought they had to stay on full wets while they're behind the safety car?

Interesting fact: At Singapore Fernando Alonso scored a Grand Slam, the first in Formula 1 for over 6 years.
Also there's talk that if it goes on like this the SC might run out of fuel

Same here except I have changed my mind after this nonsense. Of course he wants the race stopped and the next two races aswell, don't listen to him!

di Grassi pits and catches up with the rest of the pack no problem. Let's go racing!
