    I don't think I've picked a single winner, apart form the times I forgot to vote, so someone else can do the scores. Call me petty, it's true.

    Just thinking on the weather - tough enough race for CLC with the Jules Bianchi crash there. If it’s the same conditions as when he was killed, it’ll be even more tricky...

    The earlier forecast I saw had the Typhoon pass close by on Saturday, who knows, but if so could be a Sunday morning Qually.

    If it's as wet as they say it's going to be surely the smart money is on Nigel Mansails.


    On a side-note, it's the perfect opportunity to try out a reverse grid.

    That's one way to try and overhaul Hamilton, shed bits of your car and throw it at him.
