Looks like I'm first to the dance this time..........................anyway, here are my picks for the British Grand Prix.


1st} Lewis Hamilton(........British GP, British winner. .......)
2nd} Mark Webber(at least I finished ahead of Sebby V.,.......... )
3rd} Sebastien Vettel(I'm still the better driver, though, Mark.............. )
4th} Fernando Alonso(a rare off-weekend for the Spainard..................)
5th} Jenson Button(this season's turning out not to be my finest hour....... )
6th} Robert Kubica(............... ..............)
7th} Michael Schumacher(maybe I can get racing DTM next year..........hey, if Ralf can drive 'em, surely I can learn too.......... )
8th} Rubens Barrichello(............shut up, Michael. )
9th} Adrian Sutil(............could someone give Sutil a top-shelf ride next year? Maybe he can take Schuey's........... )
10th} Felipe Massa(................. ..............)

And in pole position.....................Lewis Hamilton.

Greetings mlittle!:

Looks like we agree on the top ten, just disagree on the order. I'm going with the Webbo this week, because he's the comeback kid of F1

Pole: M. Webber The Newey Machine should shine at home!
First: M. Webber, I may be dreaming, but...
Second: S. Vettel, he'll be trying everything to get round the Webbo
Third: Lewis Hamilton, learning what it's like to round out the podium
Fourth: Jenson Button, driving hard at home, but just missing
Fifth: Robert Kubica, adding to his resume
Sixth: Fernando Alonso, the best driver in not the best car
Seventh: M. Schumacher, finally beating his teammate
Eighth: N. Rosberg, pushing, pushing, but betrayed by a pit stop
Ninth: Felipe Massa, driving like Rubens
Tenth: Rubens Barrichello, driving better, one could argue, than his old team mate, what's his name, the SEVEN TIME WDC?

cheers, mates, & I hope it's a good race; I'll miss it (but not the Fox TV coverage!! ) because I'll be on the road.

Webbo will be driving the tub Vettel rejected.

My tipping has been abysmal at the best and I am sinking faster than the Titanic... but hope springs eternal or some such crap.........


So to amuse the rest of you here are my tips for the British GP.

Winner : Lewis Hamilton

Second : Sebastian Vettel

Third : Mark Webber

Fourth : Jenson Button

Fifth : Fernando Alonso

Sixth : Felipe Massa

Seventh : Nico Rosberg

Eighth : Adrian Sutil

Ninth : Michael Schumacher

Tenth : Rubens Barrichello

I seriously wanted to tip Mark but I am just not sure that this will be his race. I hope it is and I will willing go down with my sinking ship and ego if Mark wins!!!!

and hopefully won't smell fishy either.

Smelled more of the slime found around mooring chains, as Webbo said about the wing favoritism after the race 'I would never had signed the contract if I had known it was going to be like this" .
With Webbo being so popular in England I would be very interested to see what happens to Red Bull sales in England for the next week..........just don't mention the War................woops, Vettel did.............

OMG I just realised that I actually won this round!!!! when I got the results I was happy with my score and was surprised that I was at the top of the F1 idiots list but didn't notice that I was rank no. 1.
I didn't even pick Mark to win. Wish I had gone with my heart.
