Default 2010 Canadian Grand Prix

The Canadian Grand Prix is back!!

Unfortuantely I won't be viewing from the hairpin this year. Who will win and who is going to see it live?

I'll go out on a limb and pick Kubica. He's good on this track and Renault is looking more and more racy.

I'm picking Hamilton, not because I want him to, but because I think that he will. The McLarens have more top end, and the slow entry speed to the main straight will negate much of the Red Bulls advantage. Still hope that Red Bull wins though.

I moved from Section 24 in the Hairpin to Section 11. Hope that I like it because it's a long walk from the Metro.

I also think a McLaren will be at the top next weekend. I'll go with Button. Hamilton didn't seem very hungry last time around.

I'll be sitting in section 33. See you guys at Matt's party? Maybe we should all have name tags

The hairpin exit is my favorite viewing location for this track. Lots of passing right before the hairpin.

Section 11 is much better than 24 imo. Enjoy the show!

I'm going with Seb. Something tells me they'll find a better way to give him the win this time.

It's hard to pick against one of the Red Bulls being on the top step when they have been so strong in each and every race and won 7 of 7 poles. But, the McLaren's have that top speed.

I've got a feeling Newey will bust out the FDuct for this race because of the long straights. Last week during Friday practice in Turkey was just a test and tune day to refine the ducts.

Canada is always interesting with the safety cars playing a role. Hope for rain.
