 Soft tires seem to be the required running medium here in Canada, with some opting for super-soft (the red wall tire).

Practice 2.    19:00 - 20:30.

 This is beginning to look like Lewis Hamilton's race! Hamilton's driving style certainly fits this circuit. Some drivers look as though they are driving round slowly, making the circuit look easy and respectively their times are slow. (Schuey).

I initially was comparing Schuey to Rosberg, as it is always good to see Michael beat his team-mate. But, I was also concentrating on Hamilton's progress. Hamilton will give us the excitement in this race, I'm sure of that.

 Then as I speak, I must have put the jinx on Hamilton, although he did go faster, it wasn't good enough to beat the Red Bull of Vettel, nor Fernando's Ferrari - Hey; and look Alonso has been very consistent too. I think my money will have to go on Hamilton this weekend, since he is looking smooth and quick here.

Qualifying.     18:00.

I would like to say, Hamilton will win, but I think there is evens chances for Vettel, Alonso and Weber as well.

Race.     19:00. Yes, wow! There I go... I made some money! Hamilton wins! The surprise for me was Grosjean and Perez! What? Where did they come from?
