Is the telecast on ESPN or Star Sports,

If anyone can post the IST for the Qualifying and tomorrow's race it'll be helpful.

This week's race looks like a 3 way fight between the Brawns, Red Bulls and Ferrari

anachronix · 4th June 2009, 17:30

The Red Bulls couldnt show the full potential of their DDD in Monaco!

It will be interesting to see how much Red Bull has gained with the DDD. They were as quick as the Brawns even before they had the DDD!

Fingers Crossed! I hope Ferrari is not too far away!

It would be really nice to see Ferrari fighting it out at the front. If Massa wins, it makes it four wins at Turkey out of 5 races.

the Brawns better be ready for some serious contention this weekend in Istanbul

Yes. It will be good if atleast one other team starts doing well. The last 4 years were fantastic with superb battles for the championship - Alonso vs. Schumacher in 2005 and 2006, Alonso vs. Hamilton vs. Raikkonen in 2007 and Hamilton vs. Massa in 2008. This year has been a whitewash with Button and Brawn in a different league. Someone has to give Brawn atleast a scare.

gpa · 6th June 2009, 18:13

Vettel did beat the Brawns in qualifying.

Ferrari seem to be taking time to get there.

Dippy · 6th June 2009, 18:22

Pole for Vettel. Ferraris in the botton half of the top 10 and Hamilton again fails to make it to Q2. Sutil on 15th though. Should be a fun race tomorrow. I guess it would be between Brawn and Red Bull.

McLaren seem to have lost the plot this year. There is even talk in the paddock that they are looking to abandon this season and concentrate on the next season.

Ferrari seem to be on the back foot this weekend. But one can never say what will unfold during the race. Am hoping for atleast a podium finish for one of the scarlet cars.

Just 30 mins to the start!!
