We have a wet one in Canada. Rain has stopped but track is soaked. Race due to start in 15 minutes and there is rain on the way. DRS not allowed to be used until race control gives ok, probably when they go back to slicks.
In warmup cars were sliding off at half pace so id expect some carnage, cant wait. Vettel on pole, webber 4th. Once again KERS failed on webbers car in qualifying

Surprise surprise re KERS on Webber's car. But with a wet race it should count a bit less.

I believe Webber also qualified with a bit of extra downforce hoping for wet conditions, Seb didn't...

Likewise, can't wait...

Webber has a downshift problem. Few teams made the wrong call and came in to change from wets to inters and 5 minutes later it started pouring so they have had to come back in and put on wets

What an amazing race...I don't mind all the waiting up and safety car laps now.

Great drive from Button (subject to a stewards inquiry)...a winner after 6 pit stops!!
Solid drive from Webber too with some wonderful overtaking...he finally made it stick getting past MSC. And some vintage defending from Schumacher!

I love it when Seb cracks under pressure! hahahaha!

Something is wrong if Seb doesn't get the win, Button should get a penalty for punting Alonso off.

Great drive by webber, once again a car fault cost him positions.
Surely hamilton has to have the book thrown at him, enough is enough
