Brazil has seen championship deciders for many years now, and could do this weekend as well, despite being bumped from last place on the calendar.

Weather update

This section may get very dull over the coming few days, as there is rain expected throughout the weekend. For today, it is light rain, with the temperature about 18 degrees C. Not great for the Brawn guys.

One to watch

It's worth keeping an eye on Kobayashi, as not only is he being thrown in at the deep end in terms of standing in for Glock, but he also has to do it at an anti-clockwise track. I wonder how many laps he'll do.

Predictions please

Will the rain ever let up? How many laps will Vettel do? Will we see any red flags? Who will finish the morning session on top?
