I'm not staying up, but I will TRY to wake up for it.

I reckon Vettel will win.

No f***ing way. I have to get up every day in the week at 3:45 for work at the moment, so I value my weekend lie-ins!

I believed that the race starts at 7am, taking into account the clock change, with the programme starting one our before.

This is where Sky+ is your friend. I will begin my "live but somewhat delayed" coverage when it suits me. Probably around 8am BST. :thumbsup:

staying up tonight as I've got a taxi pick-up at 4.30am (3.30am thanks to the clocks going forward), to get to Leeds/Bradford airport for a flight to Houston via Amsterdam. Unfortunatly I'm getting on the flight to Schipol at about the same time the race starts so will miss the flippin race! Would love to see either of the Brawn GP's win it (particularly Jenson) as it will be a great tribute to Ross Brawns buy-out and one in the eye for Honda!!! Failling that anyone but the Ferrari due or Kubica!

I will be getting up for work at 4am tommorow. Sadly I have no interest in Formula 1 so it'll be a bit of a waste.

I'm planning on some sleep, but the bottle of bubbly has only just emptied.
I'm going to have to record the Grand Prix and watch it later, though, as I'm up at 5 to go and run a checkpoint on a scout hike rather than to watch the race!
