| The 2003 Brazilian GP was slippery. |
The Brazilian GP is probably going to be driven in rain which might get interesting.
How many can remember the Brazilian Grand Prix in 2003 when most of the cars retired the race and Alonso was taken to the hospital? Let's hope nothing like that happens.
When the 2003 race at Interlagos was red flagged there was only two men on the podium: Kimi Räikkönen and Giancarlo Fisichella. Kimi stood on first place, Fisi on the second and Alonso was supposed to be standing on third place but was forced to go to the hospital after the crash that ended the race.
At the next Grand Prix Kimi had to give his number one trophy from Brazil to Fisi because the race control changed the results after the race. There was so much going on that they didn't even know who had won the race when it was stopped.
Here is a video with a few highlights of the race:
Last year in Brazil it was Mark Webber's last F1 race.

If we think about who's last Brazilian GP this might be then I would have to say Adrian Sutil's. He has had his worst season of his career and he is behind Jules Bianchi in the championship standings. If you can't beat a Marussia with a Sauber then something's wrong. Let's see how Marcus Ericsson does at Sauber next year. Some even say that he will replace Esteban Gutierrez but I don't believe that.

Now let's see my predictions:
Pole position: Lewis Hamilton, Mercedes
Race:
- Lewis Hamilton, Mercedes
- Nico Rosberg, Mercedes
- Valtteri Bottas, Williams
Fastest lap: Lewis Hamilton, Mercedes
Surprise: Jenson Button will have a great weekend.
Post your own predictions to our F1-4-LIFE PREDICTORS LEAGUE!
The rules:
POINTS: 1st - 3 2nd - 5 3rd - 10
HOW IT WORKS: the aim of the game is simply predict who comes where in the race (top3). A total of 18 points can be won on a race day. If you get winner and and 3rd place right but 2nd wrong you get 13 points same if you get 1 correct. eg. 2nd you get 5 points. If a driver wins the race and you said he would come 2nd or 3rd no points would be awarded. Same if he came in another position, and you predicted that wrong. A table will be posted up every race weekend. The point scoring system will change once the cars become more competitive. Everyone will say a merc 1,2 so it won't be close or fun.
HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR PREDICTIONS: send an email to f14lifeblog@gmail.com or message the Facebook page to submit your predictions. You have until lights out to make them. If you submit them when the race has started they won't count. So be quick! like the Mercedes.
THE PRIZE: the winner of the league will win themselves a admin place on the F1 4 LIFE page along side AE, JT, MW & MH. If you don't want to be an admin you are welcome to participate anyway. We may also come up with some other prize if it helps.
That's it for today and if you want to send me feedback then email me: f14lifeblog@gmail.com
