Who's going to be watching the Grand Prix then?

I'm getting very excited, although probably not as excited as this guy:

    The husband will have it on, and as we only have one room I will be putting up with the noise of it. I'm trying to learn how to use MS Project and can't concentrate over the noise of the Eastenders cast shouting at each other. I have a 143 page manual and am on page 26 ?

    I'm hoping I'll be awake to watch the GP. I think it will start about midnight local time! Am stupidly excited about it though as I usually enjoy the Brazilian GP in any case. It's already 22:20 here and I'm wide awake - stoopid body clock.

    I'm going to be watching. H will be home from work at 4.30 and then we'll get stuck in. I can't wait. For once, I am backing British. I still miss Schuey though!

    I'm stupidly excited. Happy to see the back of Coulthard though, I've always thought that he was very over hyped, helped by that fact that Martin Brundle manages him so whenever he crashes Brundle always says 'oh dear unlucky DC' etc. I like Felipe Masa, and if Lewis wasn't in contention I'd love to see him win, but i'll be yelling for Lewis all the way

    I will be watching for a bit but will have to run in and out of the kitchen making the roast and then H will want the NFL on at 6.

    That Black Parade montage was brilliant, really really good stuff there! I'll definitely be searching for that on you tube later.

    I support Renault generally but am so rooting for Lewis today, please please let him win the championship!

    Mrs Smedley is a very lucky lady!

    Looks like I am the only Ferrari supporting fan out to play today then.

    Loved the montage too, but will be pleased to see the coverage move back to BBC - as long as it stops being the Lewis show. So disappointed that more hasn't been made of it being Coulthard's last season this year. He has barely had a look in.

    Good luck to all today. Come on Coulthard, go out with a big points haul (yeah yeah I know but it would be well deserved if he did)

    Will you watch all laps? I'm trying to care but I'm struggling.

    I'm only really watching to see QPR's owners ?

    Nooooooo DC! His last race and he didn't even make it past the first corner, so sad ?. Although perhaps a fitting tribute to his career ?

    Chicken - yes, will watch all laps except those that ITV chose to put adverts in. I think it'll probably be nailbiting right to the end.

    DC has had such bad luck this year - such a shame to see him crash out on his last race

    At least he can walk away from it. A real shame though.
