Pasta's Predictions

2012 Most annoying thing Jonathan Legard ever said Grand Prix

1. Up the hill, down the hill comes Alonso
2. We'll find out in Abby Dabby, meanwhile here's Hamilton
3. It's hard off, hard on for Vettel
4. Round the corner comes Button
5. It's Alonso-Hamilton-Vettel-Button, and Webber is fifth
6. Soft off, Hard On for Raikkonen
7. Let's see what Hulkenberg can do
8. And the battle is joined by Massa
9. Maldonado has *interruption by Brundle*
10. Oh, that can't be good for Perez

He Sprints For The Line: Hamilton
Is this going to be good enough?: Vettel
This could be crucial: Karthikeyan
Oh, that can't be good: Senna
On a charge, this could crucially prove to be crucial: Alonso (wins from 5th)
That's not what he would of wanted: Di Resta
Making hay: Grosjean
He's done it again: Vergne
Got to get the concentration right: None
