Just a statistical tip in case you are interested: Neel Jani has ALWAYS finished in a top 5 position for the Sunday race. It seems to be catching out quite a few of you. Oh, and by the way, I am biased here

Apart, of course, from Imola and the Nurburgring. Oh, and Monaco, because they didn't have a second race. So two out of four, then

Sorry, I meant if something out of the teams or drivers control did not pop up. Imola, brakes, while running 3rd and Nurburgring, slow puncture while running 1st. But I guess that's racing, I am not going to argue over that.

i think jani has been pretty good this year. his performance in the first race at barcelona was one of the best performances by anyone in my opinion. i think garcia needs to improve though. maybe steven kane will be more suited?

I know - I was just gently teasing. Neel is so overdue a podium finish that it hurts - I certainly hope it comes this weekend.
