If Heiki dosn't start bucking his ideas up I'm going to drive to the airport, jump on a plane, get a taxi to the circuit, hop out, run in to the Lotus pit and give him a slap in the chops.

Kovi is an avid reader!

This unseasonally dry spell is allowing the teams to gather lots of useful data and giving a slightly clearer picture of what the teams are up to and where they may stand. It is very unfortunate that Mark Webber's Red Bull broke down as essentially they are still an unknown quantity. Hopefully the weather will keep it's act together and Red Bull will get there's.

Those 15 years of not having anyone to support clashed with the end of your anger management problems, didn't they?

Kamui's only done 6 laps and his time is still quicker than Heikki's

It all becomes clear now why McLaren didn't win the Constructors' in 2008.
