Reason: Although Romain might win a race, I suspect he won't win this one. Poll amended!

But means Lewis will win!

Ambrosio for the win!
Re: FORMULA 1 GRAN PREMIO SANTANDER D'ITALIA 2012
This one should be fought between Alonso and the McLaren pair. I don't think RBR or Lotus can give them a fight. Maybe watch out for some midfield team coming alive in a low-downforce setting.
Re: FORMULA 1 GRAN PREMIO SANTANDER D'ITALIA 2012
If Lotus introduce the 'device', I think it will give them a mighty boost down those long straights.

Apparently they won´t debut the device at Monza also. I think they are missing a good opportunity if they continue to delay when they have it ready probably all the other top teams will have a DDRS too and all the effort will be in vain.tderias wrote:If Lotus introduce the 'device', I think it will give them a mighty boost down those long straights.

I read somewhere that the double DRS boost isnt significant on a low downforce circuit, hence the trade off (weight, higher CG) didnt make sense . Should be ready for the next race though

Last 3 years Button finished 2nd

Lotus won't introduce it in Monza because it's Monza, they won't introduce it in Singapore because it's dark there. I suspect they'll use it for the first time during the young drivers testingtderias wrote:If Lotus introduce the 'device', I think it will give them a mighty boost down those long straights.

I'm picking Button as fav to win although lotus and RBR were quite competitive at Montreal, which is quite a similar low downforce circuit.
hope there's no 1st lap carnage this time round, with Grosjean banned and Maldonado far behind!

We didn't have a Belgian at the Belgian Grand Prix, they'll be no Italian at the Italian Grand Prix but we will have a Belgian with an Italian sounding name at the Italian Grand Prix.
Is it worth putting $10 on Custard? Probably not. But let's hope he does well as he's a nice guy and underrated.
Anyway, 10 facts about him.

Anyway, 10 facts about him.
1. He’s so eager he sometimes arrives at the track before all the engineers.
2. His last race was the 2011 Brazilian Grand Prix.
3. He was nicknamed ‘custard’ by his last team, in recognition of the similarity named Ambrosia custard brand.
4. He is The Master. Or, at least, he was the inaugural International Formula Master champion in 2007.
5. He is the first Belgian to race in F1 since Bertrand Gachot in 1995.
6. He likes taxi drivers.
7. If he wasn’t an F1 driver, he’d like to be an airline pilot.
8. He has very blue eyes.
9. His name generates ‘about’ 1,370,000,000 results on Google
10. At 1.72m he’s the team’s shortest driver.
