Yeh should be a great race, depending on the weather i see maybe a Ferrari 1-2 in dry weather but the forecast is for rain so should suit Hamilton, will be a great race.
Might add it's absolute b/s, Channel 10 HD is showing the race LIVE from 2:00pm - 5:30pm, while on SD Channel 10 it's on at 10:50pm, absolute b/s, hopefully they don't say who won.

go Massa, screw Hamilton
go Ten HD!!!!
tough toss-up between Bathurst and this but i suppose there's hours of that race
completely forgot about the HD capabilities in relation to this race until today
you beauty!!
PS. above was that 2pm ADST or AEST?
cos if the telecast starts at 1 might still be able to catch the bathurst finish

For F*cks sake...I've a uni group meeting scheduled for 1.30 on Sunday arvo...that has to be the worst timing ever...might be able to catch the end of Bathurst but F1 is goneskies...noooo - first live race i'll be missing this season
EDIT: Actually i've just looked at the Race Start time on F1.com and it would equate to 1530 ADST so i should be able to catch a good margin of it...but the closing stages of the F1 will coincide with that of the closing stages of Bathurst...dilemmas

Weekend weather update - showers predicted
Welcome to Round 16 of the 2008 FIA Formula One World Championship, the Japanese Grand Prix at Fuji Speedway.
After the heat and humidity of Singapore, the weather will be decidedly cooler here in the shadow of Mount Fuji. Showers are anticipated both on Thursday and Friday, with ambient temperature highs of 20 and 22 degrees Celsius respectively. Thereafter it should be cloudy on Saturday and Sunday, with respective temperatures of 23 and 17 degrees.
The race will run over 67 laps of the 4.563-kilometre (2.835 mile) circuit, or 305.416 kilometres (189.780 miles). It starts at 1330 hours local time, which is nine hours ahead of GMT.

precis - bad for ferrari, both massa and raikonnen struggle in changeable conditions
good for hamilton (unfotunately), vettel, heck even webber could get up there if he gets his tyre choices right
expect to see Toyota missing cut for Q3, struggle in cool conditions
watch out for the williams', i reckon either one or both of them making Q3 and knocking out a big name (although it won't be nakajima if it's wet)
i really hope it isn't another one of those low cloud (what do you expect with a track built on a frickin mountainside?), cold, rainy races which is half held under the safety car like last year - it will ruin what should be a good race
