The times I have been to Sepang for F1 it has felt louder then it does in Melb as well. I think maybe just because more time at full throttle and track is in a natural bowl shape helping to trap the sound a bit. Not sure though but is noticeable.
Starting work now so will miss V8's and the rest, havent added anything more and will ride it out until race day at this stage. GL

Opti, are you watching the race?Comment -
Any H2H or other plays for the F1 race gentlemen?Comment -
thanks slim!
yeah i might watch a few minutes...they usually put me right to sleep again
hopefully they pass this year...last years very few races i watched a few minutes of were full of 10 sec lead snore festsComment -
Im far from an expert on f1 and would like to hear some others opinion on matchups. Alonso over Vettel looks good to me, and maybe ricciardo over vettel at +160
Mercedes -1400 to win the race

The two Vettel h2h fades might be worth a shot.
he qualified so far down because right at the end of 3rd practice he spun off and may have damaged something. Car would not run as it had previously when he went out for quali.
Cars are in parc ferme until race time so they can't touch it.
I would not put a lot of money against him though. If they manage to find and fix the issue Vettel will carve through the field ahead of him..Comment -
The two Force India drivers are a much better chance at snagging fastest lap than their odds suggest.
Nico Hulkenberg +2200
Sergio Perez +3300.Comment -
I took Ricciardo for Top 6 +300 early.
Still liking that a lot. Down to +200 now.
He was clearly the 'best of the rest' after Mercedes when it came to short run pace and long run is supposed to be their strength right now..Comment -
Sun 4/6 7701 Nico Rosberg -125
11:00AM 7702 Lewis Hamilton +105
Have to take Hamilton there. He outdrove Rosberg during the race by an almost embarrassing margin last race. People are putting too much credence in Rosberg's back to back pole positions here.
Sun 4/6 7703 Valtteri Bottas -170
11:00AM 7704 Felipe Massa +150
Bottas has looked faster than Massa so far this year, but also has been more reckless.
Kinda sorta expect Bottas to win out again this week, but it's much more like a coin flip imho. Massa +odds ar the only choice.
Sun 4/6 7705 Kimi Raikkonen -145
11:00AM 7706 Fernando Alonso +125
Too hard. Alonso is another one that developed a car issue during quali and is stuck not able to touch the car in parc ferme.
Could not take Kimi with that juice on this years form unless you are banking on Alonso car being cactus. Can not take Alonso in case car is cactus.
Sun 4/6 7707 Jenson Button -175
11:00AM 7708 Kevin Magnussen +155
Button should take care of business in race. Too juicy fr my taste though
Sun 4/6 7709 Sebastian Vettel -170
11:00AM 7710 Daniel Ricciardo +150
Like the Ferrari matchup, you have to bank on Vettel having car problems to seriously take Ricciardo starting behind him on grid. But no way you can justify -170 on Seb with the questions over his car.
Sun 4/6 7711 Daniil Kvyat -150
11:00AM 7712 Jean-Eric Vergne +130
Kvyat is in Vergne's head and baring outside influences Kyvat is the bet at-150
Sun 4/6 7713 Esteba-150
11:00AM 7714 Adrian Sutil +130
Guituerrez is similar to Torro Rosso situation... in Sutil's head badly. Sutil has been whining about weight restrictions being unhealthy and claims he wont carry a water bottle to save weight. beaten in most sessions by Guitierrez this year and has been giving a griod penalty for driving like a dufus in quali. Guy is just out of sorts and I would not be surprised to see team dump him mid season. Anyway, Juicy Gutierrez is the bet.
Sun 4/6 7715 Kamui Kobayashi -240
11:00AM 7716 Marcus Ericsson +200
Kamui is kicking the other back markers ass. Cant take those odds on anyone ina Catherham though...
Sun 4/6 7719 Romain Grosjean -155
11:00AM 7720 Pastor Maldonado +135
Who will retire first?
Sun 4/6 7721 Nico Hulkenberg +100
11:00AM 7722 Daniel Ricciardo -120
Now this is a good matchup. Toss a coin!
Sun 4/6 7723 Valtteri Bottas -165
11:00AM 7724 Kimi Raikkonen +145
Bottas has the car to win this one and starting 2 spots ahead of Kimi really helps. I dunno. I dont trust Kimi to perform in the new car yet.
Sun 4/6 7725 Fernando Alonso +100
11:00AM 7726 Sebastian Vettel -120
If we knew his car was right... we should be pounding Vettel here. But both have question marks over their rides.. so have to be a pass.
Sun 4/6 7729 Felipe Massa -125
11:00AM 7730 Sergio Perez +105
Lovin' Perez to have a good race. He feels great about car balance and was surprised how fast he was compared to other teams. Massa probably has the better car but guy is a tad fragile mentally and will be feeling under big pressure to beat his team mate today. (after last race team orders debacle at Williams). This scenario is not good for Massa.
Best bets Hamiton +105 over Rosberg and Perez +105 over Massa
Parlay Kyvat -150 over Vergne with Gutierrez -150 over Sutil

What do you think about ricciardo over Vettel or top 6Comment -
Nice analysis optional. Will alonso's team be able to diagnose the problem before the race?
Tailed u on the fast lap plays, perez and the parlay except took bottas over massa instead, mainly because of track position.
That first lap first turn gives me a heart attack every race.
Gut feeling rosberg wins the race so ill leave that one alone.Comment -
Shit nevermind I went back and looked, how do I delete stupid postsComment -
I took it at +300 early in week. Think it's a good chance to hit even from 13th on grid.
It's hard to know if Ferrari can fix it before racetime J. The cars are supposed to bee impounded but there are some things the rules allow them to change. I havent heard any word on exactly what it is that went wrong. It could be as simple as a software glitch that will be fixed with a reboot. His car just lost power in the Q3 was all he said.
Vettel could have a more serious issue with the car though. He struggled through all the quali sessions after the late off in final practice. So whatever it was the team didn't notice whilst prepping the car for quali. meaning it might be chassis damage they wont have any chance to fix.
It'll be a strange turn around from last week if Rosberg can beat Ham in a straight race suddenly this week I think. Obviously a lot of people don't agree with that as Hamilton still +115 to beat Rosberg as we approach race time!
Good luck mate
if you don't see an "edit post" link at the bottom of your recent posts... then you probably need more posts before it becomes available.
We won't hold one against you though ;-).Comment -
This F1 race has been exciting so far. Great battle for the lead between teammatesComment -
Williams and Force India 3-6 all under a blanket. Whole field pretty close besides mercedes, there gone lolComment -
Hulkenburg sets fastest lap with 19 to go
.Comment -
Taking Bottas instead of Perez > Massa is looking like a good decision so far JM..Comment -
LETS GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
id would owe u 1 for that 1 mate....as u know that only bets ive ever made in F1 were fasteest laps last season and never won a single 1 yet with the iceman every week....
i threw just $20 bucks on them both for fun, but would be pretty damn nice payouts for me tailing u on an F1 race...but i don't expect to win by any means, too many laps left but fun habing a chance with small risk/big reward plays alive
REALLY MIGHT BE MY WEEKEND if THIS SHIT HAPPENS

Damnit this caution screws me with Hamilton...damnit!Comment -
