    Formula 1

    Lewis Hamilton didn't qualify yesterday as his car had a disc brake problem and I think he starts at the back. I wonder if he will pull something out of the bag today?

    Will watch the race this evening!

    A really exciting race !

    Also, daft as it sounds, being one of the tracks I regularly race around on the Xbox, and 'knowing' all the corners, an extra dimension is added for me.

    A little more bad luck qualifying for Lewis, a fire this time caused by a fuel leak, don't know for sure if he will race today we'll just have to wait and see. His team mate Nico is in Pole!

    The racing is certainly exciting.


    Just a shame they sound like Bumble Bees rather than screaming F1s.

    I'm sure lots of people must have been moaning about it, so hopefully next season the full flavour will be back.

    Lewis took every opportunity that Lady Luck put his way. Great job.

    75% Of pole position starters win at this track. I hope the Mercedes takes a little bit longer on Rosberg's tyre changes

    I'm just going to do a few laps of Monza on the Xbox to get into the spirit.

    Nice that my girl (Mercedes) is doing so well in the sport too.

    Here's a quick replay of a lap around Monza I did this evening.

    No F1 cars on this Xbox game, so I used my Gumpert Apollo, which is about 15 seconds a lap slower than a F1.

    Quality aint brill, as I recorded it on my tab. Graphics in the actual game are brilliant, and the actual track and the car physics very accurate. 200mph along the start-line straight.
    Give it a few seconds and I change it to the view I use when driving.

    The hardest part is judging your braking point at the end of the high speed straights...otherwise you're straight across the bumpy bit, as on the race today.

    I don't really like F1 anymore, but always try to watch the start and the finish! In between is boring now.

    Actually I think the on-track action has been really good this season...just that the sound is so underwhelming.

    Suzuka GP in Japan next... a great track, popular with the drivers, and also featured on my Xbox Forza4 racing, so added interest when you've 'driven' it so many times.

    I'm pleased you mentioned sound Graham, I use my sound system and the Singapore race sounded really well as the sound echoed on the buildings, very pleased to listen to the outstanding effect that the buildings produced!
