Hello guys,

I am a big fan of F1 and have only just got back active with FM Base and it is nice to see there is a F1 mini community lol.

As you guys should know it is the Brazilian GP this weekend and I was wondering could anyone tell me where I can watch the practice sessions on Friday (tomorrow) I heard it was covered on BBC Red Button but I would like to know what time it is if that is so? (By the way I live in England),

My prediction for this weekend is that Webber will come back strong but I fancy Vettel to take 1st in the race and Hamilton and Alonso to fight for second. That is just my personal opinion though.

Thanks for help in advance guys, Luke.
 
go to formula1.com, all the GP sessions times are listed there and you can automatically convert to local time. :)

The Red Bulls will be fast but I hope they **** up and Alonso gets the win. I can't wait I'm just nervous thinking about it <)

they are usually so no reason why the Brazil Practice wont be shown:)
 
practise sessions can be watched live on bbc sport/ formula one
 
Final race of the season tomorrow, Vettel is on pole, Hamilton 2nd, Alonso 3rd, Button 4th and Webber 5th.

That are peoples thoughts on the race tomorrow and the new track?
 
Away to start. SHould be a great race. I was there in Abu Dhabi last year, shame the championship was over.

Tension must be unbearable. Alonso going to be favourite I think, but Hamilton is going to be important up there in 2nd.
 
Can't believe that crash just then, if Schumacher didn't insitinctively stop the car before the impact, he would have been killed :O

Was a close shave for sure, if Liuzzi's car was a foot to the left Schumacher could have been seriously injured
 
Was it just me, or was that race really boring. I found it worse t than the bahrain race. But everyone will be talking about Vettel winning the title than the actual race itself. But congrats to Vettle for wnning the titel
 
Schumacher was very lucky with the crash indeed. It could have been a serious injury. On the other hand, Ferrari messed up with their strategy. They thought Webber was their main rival and not Vettel, and therefore followed Webber strategy (which was done on pupose to see if Ferrari bite the bait, which they did).

Just bear in mind that if Alonso followed Button´s strategy, a fourth place was more realistic, thus clinching his 3rd championship. Anyway, all speculations put aside. We all can agree that the best car along the season has won.

Personally I would prefer Webber to have won the championship, but that would never happen, since we all know that Vettel had preferential status within the team.

Looking forward the next season, hoping that Mercedes team can join the other teams in the championship race.
 
I thought this reel at the end really shortly reviewed the season

The KING, Schumacher to win next year NO LIE.

Very glad he is ok after crash :).

Coming back stronger!

For Kubica will have a cracking new season and I reckon Webber may well be entering the ending years of his career, perhaps 2 more shots at a title, may act as an insentive but I think Vettel to win once more in 2011
