On the grid at Interlagos

Jenson Button drives onto the grid, switches off his engine and coasts as his mechanics run behind. With the V8 silent he can hear the grandstands booing him. That can't be nice. Still, he sounded optimistic: "In 2006, I started 14th here and finished third. You can win from 14th, and that's my aim."

Rubens is sat in the car with his eyes closed and a fan blowing cool air under his chin. Felipe popped around to say hi. Rubens says if he wins there will be waterworks: "I'll probably be crying the hell of it. I was born two minutes from here. I might know people in the grandstand from school. It will be an emotional moment. It will be a fairytale."

You know me, I'm an unbiased observer, but I would be delighted to see Rubybaby win this one and take the battle down to the wire.

The cars are about to start the formation lap. Let's hope for an exciting race - Interlagos rarely disappoints!
