Its the 3rd race in the calendar my F1 chums.. Egg Foo Yan is on the racing menu.
Ferrari have vowed that they will not be noodling around this time and in a recent interview Leclerc has insisted he is no Peking duck.
Will Vettle get his act together or will he fly off the track into the GREAT wall.. or will he summon the old way of the Exploding Fist and charge forward..?
I predict Bottas will finish 2nd. I think only one Williams car will finish last this time.
Max will come in 3rd. If Hamilton is not on the podium, he will blame his car being undrivable.
Thats my prawncracker prediction.. Its time folks...close that fridge door and order that Chicken Chow Mein.
Its time for Shanghai karate...F1 Styles..
I have no comment to say other than the lower case thread title makes me twitch slightly.
If the river was whisky, and I was a duck.
I would swim to the bottom, and never come up.
But the river isn't whisky, and I'm not a duck.
So give me the whisky, and shut the hell up.
Well, I do appreciate all the puns!
If you think I have been trying to present myself as intellectually superior, then you truly are a dimwit.
Lets hope Leclerc can get some sweet sweet redemption.
Ditto, looking forward to Leclerc getting what's due in this one.
Love the Commodore 64 game jacket in the puns, that's got to be over 30 years old now.
The great wall/F1 montage is pretty good too.
The 14th is going to be pretty good times - F1 and Game of Thrones SE08EP01 premier.
I'm interested to see if RBR sorts out the issues Max had with the car in Bahrain, if it's able to hang with Merc and Ferrari more so than he was able to do so last race.
China's another power course. I don't think they'll come close to Merc, let alone Ferrari.
I agree. Ferrari has this in the bag.
Lewis not looking great so far. I expect Bottas to outqualify him.
McLaren and Renault looking good pace wise in FP2. I just hope they're reliable in the race.
Where is a good place for Chinese food..? I want takeout before the race to get into the spirit of things.
White people Chinese food or real Chinese food?
That is a dam good question. Real Chinese food I guess would be my first choice.
Im gonna be at a house party downtown that evening. But Im going to leave early and try and grab a takeout on the way home.
Sorry to go O/T, but a company I ran in the mid 90s, had Danny Lee and his bodyguard (Danny Lee from The Killer and owner of Magnum Films) walk into our office one day ( and later offer me a job in HK for most of 1996). We were leaving for a shoot in Florida that weekend, and he nonchalantly ordered up 1st class air to Orlando for 6 of his entourage (cough mistress/etc), and hung around for a week after we flew back to Calgary. He insisted on taking us for Chinese food. We thought he meant Gweilo Chinese food, not real Chinese food. A bit of a shock, that. Especially the green bean soup dessert. I almost didn't go to HK due to the green bean soup as a dessert. Got used to "real" Chinese food soon enough once I was there, although my brief time on the mainland proved that HK and Mainland food is different too (to me at least).
This is going to be a real interesting race, I can't wait.
What time and what channel is the actual race going to be on? I think something crazy like early morning and TSN? Sunday right?
Race is 12:05 MST. It is on TSN.

Have you guys seen Ricciardo's 1000GP helmet? So nice!
That is pretty sick. Very minimalist, love the silver/black as well.
Woot, Ted is back in the pitlane for China!
