It's beginning to look like Sauber won't finish the season due to financial problems. Bernie's been looking to reduce the number of teams. I don't think this is one of the ones he was looking to fade away.

Do you think that Honda will buy them?

You probably know more than we do. In the U.S. they say you can indite a sandwich. Meaning, it's easy to gather enough evidence to believe there to be guilt. The problem is taking it to court and getting a jury conviction.

He probably risks from 3 to 10.
We have no jury bullshit here, most of Europe lives under a real juridical system!

Crazy fantastic qualifying this morning. It was very tight. This race should be good as usual.

I am expecting a Vettel victory. I hope I am wrong.

If Kimi can hold position to the end, then this championship becomes interesting.

I thought the race was a little dull. Grosjean made it more exciting and got screwed with the penalty.

The fights, overtakes and attempted overtakes kept me on the edge of my seat. I'm not sure how you could find that dull. Vettel fought hard. Grosjean put on a show, Button and Kimi showed how you make tires last and prevent being passed. Lewis had to battle a few times as well. Fernando was giving his all as usual from the word go.

If this was not exciting to you, I am going to have a heart attack when a race comes along that you find exciting .

Paul.
