Should be another interesting race!
Somethings I'll be watching:
-Rosberg's start
-Hamilton's start
-Vettel's ability to start and race from further back
-Raikkonen's race
-Schumacher's race

The Mercedes still eats his tires pretty quickly, but if Schumacher can keep up the guys behind him long enough, Rosberg might have a chance on a podium.
Raikkonen and Kobayashi have a good chance too, their cars seem quite easy on the tires. Of course everything has to go through the first few corners without problems..
Hopefully it will be interesting to watch!

Watching Rosberg's pole position lap unfold from the onboard camera, David Coulthard remarked that we may just have seen the Perfect F1 Lap.
Nico knew it too, he just parked the car and went off to get weighed.
The race will be interesting for sure, weather may be a big factor too.
Kimi is looking remarkably good, but it's open to any of half a dozen drivers from this grid.
Great stuff.

Amazing!!
Romain Grosjean not only made it through the first corner he's still running very well at half distance.
The 'Iceman' is looking better than ever and Rosberg is hanging in there but Button might just spoil his day.
Webber is climbing all over Hamilton and making Vettel look very ordinary!
Edit: Great result for Rosberg! Shame that Kimi ran out of rubber. Just saw the trophies........ugly as a hat-full of sphincters. Loved seeing Webber drive around Vettel, especially after his lift off.
All in all, highly entertaining.

So, since you folks already know that I like Nico.....
-Too bad Schumacher's crew failed him, it would've been interesting to see how he would have faired...
-Kimi is still young - I expect him to improve by season's end
-Hamilton qualfies well but is pipped again by Button
-How about that Grosjean!
-Will Vettel be able to keep himself in-check now that he's not consistently blowing away the field?
--Will Webber's recent success have an effect on Vettel?
