F1 is transforming Istanbul to the most exciting city in the world this weekend.
This is the 5th Grand Prix held in Istanbul Park, Turkey in which Massa has won the last three and looking at Ferrari who was the only team challenging Brawn-Mercedes in Monaco he is well capable of pulling the 4th win this week end.
Contrary to Bahrain, Istanbul Park is far more challenging circuit

At the end of P1 on Friday Rosberg set the fastest lap and put himself on top of the chart, but once again he’ll prove to be a non-factor at the end of the Race.

Heiki edged Alonso by fraction of a second and clinched the top position at the end of P2 on Friday. They were the only drivers with lower than 1 min. 29 sec. lap time. I guess Heiki managed to put a smile on McLaren Team’s face. They needed that.

Kubica (Brando’s buddy) was 3rd when P2 was final on Friday.

Kaz headed for 4th which really surprised me, he is lucky I’m not the Team Premier b.c I would fire his a$$ in a flash and if for some political reason there must be a Japanese driver in TOYOTA I would take Sato over Kaz any time.

Here is the time table for this weekend (all times US eastern)

Saturday May -6-2009…….04:00 AM Practice 1 (on SpeedTV)

Saturday May-6-2009……..07:00 AM Qualifying (on SpeedTV)

Sunday May-7-2009…….03:00 PM Formula1 Grand Prix of Turkey (on FOX Sport Delayed)
Sit back and enjoy the exciting race in Istanbul
I hope Massa doesn't gorge himself with those tasty Dunar Kebabs.:D

Congrats to Seb. Vettel for clinching the pole again.
He will win the race if Piquet or Kaz don't push him out of the race track.

WOW!! Poor Hammi didn't even make it to Q2, Mcs have given him the worst Race Car ever, he had all kind of set up problems.

Another Button victory and this season is shaping out to be quite predictable now.
At first we all thought it was going to be more exciting because so many cars looked equal but this is more like one of Schumacher years.
I don't see how anyone can take this championship away from Button now. 7 races and the season is almost over!
