Qualifying for the second from last grand prix has been stopped because the rain is too hard. I think they should call the whole weekend off. Jenson is champion  |

One of the kerb cameras is sub-merged in water.
Come on Bernie, let's just call this one off.

Yeah, call it off and try again tomorrow morning. This is farcical.

Batch, they have now said that qualifying won't begin until conditions have improved.
If the session does begin today it will be on a wet track and so make for a very interesting grid.
Jenson could very easily find himself in the teens if he takes it too easily.

They said earlier that those tyres lift 60 litres of water from the track per second. Precipitation fact fans.
Well I found it interesting anyway.

That's Vettel's slim chance of the championship over then, didn't get through Q1, neither did Hamilton.

Fair play Barichello, could make for an intersting final race if he wins and Button doesnt get any points

I don't even think Button deserves to win the title. He's been awful for half the races now. Rubens has been fairly decent throughout to be fair. Still don't know how Button is 14 points ahead.

Button is 14 points ahead as early in the season he drove superbly in the best car. He has won more races than anyone else and under Bernies medal system would already be world champion.
Since then he has driven relatively poorly. But his rivals haven't done much better. I think Rubens will take it to the last race, and that's a lottery. But I can't see Rubens winning in Brazil with that fuel load.

I think Button will win championships, weather it is this year or not i dont know
But i think after all his years in racing, Rubens deserves one world championship

I hope it goes down to the last race, the last point this season was exciting was when everyone worked out the Brawn team were not invincible, but since then it's been dire.

I agree, the last few races have been quite extraordinarily dull imo |

Should be an exciting race today.
A good bet will be for Hamilton to get into the points.
