Indian GP trophy..

The worst part is that a state of the art track will be basically abandoned. Think of all the good that could have been done with that money.

Well superbike and one round of the Asian GT challenge were postponed...not sure if motogp will go there...organisers seem confident that there will be more than 20k people..

That´s one good looking trophy.

[Shrieker]

Yes, I like it as well.

You can't use it for drinking champagne though

A bit out of subject but thought important,

For those praising Bridgestone and criticising Pirelli, you should look at what happen this weekend on MotoGP.
Bridgestone banned teams before quali, the use of their soft compound because it degraded too fast. So it looks it is the philosophy of high degradation imposed and not from the tyres constractors what make this tyres being so unsafe.

why don't we get this kind of information about all the trophy's throughout the season? I like it.

The fact that Bridgestone have addmitted there is a problem of deg and addressed it while Pirelli have spun all sorts of crap about punctures, lack of testing and locking wheels instead of admitting a problem pretty much says it all.

Sebastian's going to love it.

This is what the bookies (ladbrokes in this case) are thinking about who is going to win the Indian GP. I added the percentages in addition to the normal odds. Nothing shocking about Vettel being the overwhelming favourite. Mark Webber, however, being more likely to win the GP than HAM, ALO and RAI was a bit of a surprise to me.

Webber will probably win if Vettel has a DNF.

The odds for a Vettel victory are high, but then again, what are the odds a driver will win a certain race considering he has won the race before, the race before that, the race before that... ?

[godlameroso]

Well Vettel has had one DNF this season, it's not likely he will have another. For one the Red Bull is FAR superior to any other car on the grid at the moment. To the tune of at least .6 seconds per lap, that means he doesn't have to push to maintain a gap. Not pushing means everything on the car lasts more than on other cars, not pushing means less mistakes. If someone else had the kind of advantage his car currently enjoys relative to the field they would wipe the floor with the competition equally.

F. Massa - 100/1 - (0.99%)

Is this due to performance or team order?
