Random they didn't send de la rosa out to shake it down?

Most likely because he doesn't have any experience with last year's car, and Narain does, so he can compare briefly how it fairs to last year's model.

Should be worth a watch tonight.

Racing with the Hamiltons (BBC1 10.35pm)

In 2011, 19-year-old Nic Hamilton dreamed of following his brother Lewis into motor racing. But as well as the pressure of being a Hamilton and never having raced a car in his life, Nic also has a disability that had him using a wheelchair until he was 16. This powerful and intimate film follows the family as they try to help Nic achieve his dream. With unprecedented access we see Nic embark on a season that will determine whether he has what it takes to make a career of his own in the glamorous and dangerous world of motorsport.

I've set it on record as I'll be coming back from work when it starts. Looking forward to watching it.

New HRT looks the business I think! http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/97856

I predict Button-Hamilton-Vettel in Oz.

I'd say,

1. Hamilton
2. Button
3. Schumacer

I have a feeling i may be very wrong but would love that!  :smiley:

I would also love to see Schumi get a podium too. The fact he can still finish in the top 6 in some races when he is 43 is bloody good going. I felt for him at the Canadian Grand Prix, when he was on course for a podium, only for KERS to allow Button and Webber to sail past him on the straights.

I am very happy tonight , as my brother signed up to Sky HD for 12 months. Which is good, as even though I do not have Sky or live with him, I can watch the Sky F1 Channel through my Xbox on the Sky player using his login!

Probably the worst interview ever. Kimi is so boring.
