My clocks are either internet based and synced by a time server or radio controlled by a central German radio clock tower which automatically sets all the radio controlled clocks in our country. It happened on 2:30 a.m. tonight in our GMT+1 time zone. For us the race starts 8:00 a.m.

One can also keep track of how long 'til the race starts by checking the countdown timer at websites like Formula1.com and PlanetF1.

Trulli has a problem with the hydraulics. Not sure if he made it to the grid or pit lane.

Fred spins at 1st corner. Now last. Kub into 4th.
Buemi, Hulkenberg and Kobayashi are out. Schumi has a damaged front wing.

Safety car out.

:lol: @ the radio. "You have a damaged front wing, do you want to come in?"
"I can't see it"
"A-firm,you have to come in"

edit:

Kobayashi hit the wall, front wing failure. Front wing came off before the wall. After going to the wall, hits Hulkenberg. Almost rising on to the car.

It looks to me like Alonso left no room to Button who did not brake to avoid the crash. Micheal was the victim to this without fault of his own. He had such a good start. Real shame.

The Saubers need to be investigated because of those damn front wings. They can't keep losing them like that.
