Can't be bothered with the "i'm cursed, give it to Vettel" **** again, being positive and going for Alonso. Massa had a different (updated) car in India and if they improve it even more as they should, hopefully it'll be the best and he'll win.
As well as having the original zone that runs along the maximum distance of the start-finish straight, a second DRS zone that runs from Turn 3 to Turn 4 has been extended by 80 metres. The FIA has also confirmed that the zones will be wholly independent, with separate detection points for each. Sauber's head of track engineering Giampaolo Dall'Ara reckoned the revisions should be a boost to the racing. "An interesting aspect compared to most of the other races this year is the fact there will be two DRS sections with two detection zones, which should normally help overtaking," he said.

Right... Alonso's/Kimi's/Lewis' race to lose, Alonso's/Kimi's/Lewis' title to lose, Seb has no chance to win India let alone the title, The Ferrari/McLaren/Lotus is clearly the better car, It would take a miracle for Seb to win this race, Enjoy the race
Want Hamilton to win to see how the team reacts. I'd like them to part amicably but we'll see. Also surely he's had enough bad luck this season now. Hope button can get up there to before his confidence or whatever goes again.
Glad to see they've got the 2 DRS zones independent, although with the technology available, it should never have taken the majority of 2 seasons to get to this point. However, the idea has been executed really poorly. If anyone makes a pass into T1, they're then going to get instantly repassed before turn 4. If memory serves, then the DRS zone between 3 and 4 was possibly slightly too long last season, so extended it will just exacerbate the issue. Maybe between turns 4 and 5 would have been more interesting, as it would have created racing, rather than 'just' having to be later on the brakes.
Torro Rosso are going to have a good race, maybe Mercedes if they have the capability to run two cars this weekend.
I don't understand Silver, at first I thought he was joking, but it seems he is sure that Vettel has not got a chance here.
For the love of all things deep fried and covered in bread crumbs, I just want an exciting race, don't care who wins... saying that would like to see Alonso, Kimi or Lewis win, nothing against Vettel, just want the championship race to go down to the wire, but that won't happen should Vettel bag this and the next race... Like to see a strong race for Kamui, Hulk to contine to "smash" his team mate and Grosjean and Maldonado to continue to keep their noses clean.. Finally, I'd like to have a web cam put on Lewis's car, to ensure no mechanics loosen any nuts or bolts... we're watching you Whitless!!!
You might of noticed that I've done this since Singapore The only issue with it though is I actually still do believe Alonso will win the title still and it's his to lose.
I'm in the "Don't care who wins so long as it's a good race" camp too. Since it's mostly a two horse race for the title now I'd take Alonso first, Vettel second or both breaking down to set the cat among the pigeons. Will be interesting to see if Ferrari can close the performance gap any on RBR.
According to 'us' we always have a rapid improvement after a poor race please log in to view this image
