The final race episode for 2008, and what a Grand Prix to talk about! From the early moments of Free Practice through to the podium non-celebrations, we take a look at all the gossip from Brazil.
Intro
Can't believe there's other things to talk about before we get to discuss the race, but here goes.
Good Week / Bad Week
Good week for charity with Coulthard's new livery, and Portugal get yet more F1 action. Bad week for a sick Trulli and Jacques Villeneuve's singing career (possibly).
News and Views
We take a closer look at the standard engines fallout, with Ferrari finally turning against the FIA. We also dissect the FIA's statement and ask five important questions.
Qualifying
A brief look at what happened in qualifying, with Alonso not matching his practice form, Honda having fuel problems, Williams fall from grace and Massa's easy pole position.
The Race
It was all about the beginning and the end, with the rain making all the difference in the world. The way intermediate and dry tyres cope with the racetrack meant the last corner of the race was the most exciting thing we've ever seen.
Feedback
Just one question - how do the FIA make sure that two-race engines are actually used for two races without being tampered with?

28 minutes?!? I was miles off!
I need to sort out my mysticism... ;)
Ooops. That should be a 3. 38 minutes.
Closest was Scott Woodwiss, I believe.
You were still miles off, Dom ;)
All hail Mystic Scott. :)
I would like to point out that I wasn't miles off, just on the wrong tyres. :P
That I was. I guess my excuse this time can be I was unfit to make predictions whilst still in a state of post-Brazil shock.
It's not true, though... :P
Yay, I win! :D
I plead the Kubica defence. I didn't have enough information to make an informed decision.
ah, i was even more out than Dom was... must try harder.
Another great Fantasy Racer stat:
- We had 17 drivers in the top 100. I finished 99th overall and 16th in the league. Not bad for a defunct team and engine (Team Lotus-Cosworth)

Not really, Dan. A recently defunct team managed to get 7th overall in the league and 1st in the league....
Heard "me" is looking for me, Er, I am not sure myself if I am currently closer to Miami, USA or Nassau, Bahamas myself. On a dive boat is all I can figure out...
jordan!!
"speech", "speech"
Speech? You guys are going to have to clue me in here. what do you want me to make a "spreech" about as a had a wonderful couple of days of diving in crystal clear water with my bikini-clad girlfriend that twisted my rubber arm to come along so that she could save the single supplement fees.....
And what medium do you prefer?
how you feel being the confirmed leader of the group of five and the outright winner of the 2008 sidepodcast fantasy league?
seeing as you can't be there to collect your trophy, a video message via satellite will be acceptable.
either that or you could jot something down :)
Oh Boy, I hope everyone's remembered their "Blackdder Goes Forth", but I have just come up with a "cunning plan...."
It might take a couple days to issue my speech....I have to make sure I that do not mess it up.
Fantastic as per usual guys. Not a million miles away with 44 minutes.
Looking forward to the victory speech as well.
The first draft of the speech is now completed.
I was reading it to my gal but she fell asleep in the middle! Which sadly, was the original part!
Let us see, 14 dives in three days, she could be suffering for nitrogen narcosis, on the other hand, she believes that Montreal solely exists so that she does not have to go to the Paris or London Fashion shows.....
Now I need to find a microphone....
How annoying on a scale of annoyingness is this: http://www.you...m/watch?v=EyoFR7hPZXg
i'm looking forward to his debut single more and more :)
Also she was spotted wearing a ring, so I'm looking forward to the wedding. Perhaps he'll drive them to the church in a two-seater F1 car.
Strikes me as the sort of person who when writing letters (or composing emails, texts, etc) ends every sentence with at least two exclamation marks...
To be fair, if I had a boyfriend and he won the world championship, I'd be too happy to worry about how I looked to other people as well...
(Though I can't see me becoming a PCD fan in general; some of their songs work for me and others don't).
gah, the two seater thing is totally going to happen isn't it?
When was she spotted wearing it? I don't think I've heard that one yet.
If that's true, then F1 finally has an answer to the Beckhams. Sorta.
A highly reliable source, of course: http://tinyurl.com/58bbfh
Then, of course, Pink wouldn't mind a piece of the action either. http://tinyurl.com/6j7acd
Ah, tabloid news makes me laugh.
Crazy, crazy people, them in the tabloids.
Anyone wanna make guesses on what Nicole will wear at the FIA Gala at Paris in December?
I was listening to a clip of her after the race from say that "she felt it in her bones" that Lewis was going to pull through.
She sounds like a cross of a Jamacian fortune teller and a annoying Valley girl. No wonder people in Europe hate Americans. I hear stuff like this and just cringe.
