more rain tomorrow pls

Yes this

Ideally stopping and starting throughout

 

[MrCurry]

I did not predict that!

 

[beesonthewhatnow]

Bonkers

 

[Limejuice]

That was an exciting session.

With rain, everything is delightfully unpredictable.

I hope All-bran can do well enough tomorrow to maybe rescue his seat.

 

[1%er]

I'd like a dry race as Lewis is likely to move forward and Bottas not so much, Lewis need to beat Bottas by 8 points to win the drivers championship

 

[Indeliblelink]

That was like watching a race in itself.

 

[1%er]

With racing point being out front for the race they could get a hat full of points in the constructors tomorrow, McLaren and Ferrari are well back

1	Mercedes	479
2	Red Bull Racing Honda	226
3	Renault	135
4	McLaren Renault	134
5	Racing Point BWT Mercedes	134
6	Ferrari	103

 

[1%er]

See you guys for the race tomorrow

 

[Badgers]

See you guys for the race tomorrow

Oh yes!

Race start at 10:10 UK time or coverage?

 

[MrCurry]

Oh yes!

Race start at 10:10 UK time or coverage?

That’s the race start time. Sky broadcasting live from 5am probably...

Stroll and Russel penalised it seems

Not quite - Hamilton has to not give up 8 points to Bottas. 85 points ahead, 78 remaining after this race.

 

[Zapp Brannigan]

Stroll and Russel penalised it seems

Not Stroll, still showing as pole?

 

[Indeliblelink]

Norris & Sainz both got grid penalties but NFA for Stroll over yellow flags in Q2

 

[cybershot]

What the McLarens penalised for?

You are quite correct

Morning RaceFam not quite out of bed but will stick the endless build up on soon. Want to know if rain is looking likely.

 

[Badgers]

Skies seem a bit blue

 

[dessiato]

Is it going to be the normal parade for the top two positions, or are we going to see some proper racing? If it’s dry I can see it being Mercedes 1 2, and third going to Red Bull, and most of the fun being behind these. But, if we get some rain...

 

[Limejuice]

Morning, all.

I have a feeling today's race might be all over the shop.

 

[Badgers]

Seems there will be rain (already some at the moment) but not loads. Be good if the teams have to switch tyres a few times along the way

 

[Limejuice]

Anyone else watching on Sky?

That fucking annoying Stelvio message every ad break! All fucking season.

I swear it has made me hate Alfa Romeo with every fibre of my being!

Just getting in the mood.

 

[Badgers]

Please not a rolling start under the SC The grid is set up for a great start and we want that.

 

[Limejuice]

Interesting that the right side of the grid is much wetter than the left.

So positions 1,3,5 etc are going to be spinning wheels.

 

[Badgers]

So Verstappen, Albon and Hamilton (top six) on the dry side.

So Verstappen, Albon and Hamilton (top six) on the dry side.

"Dry" is stretching the point, but they won't have the surface water that seems to be standing on the right side. It's probably just a couple of mm, but enough to mess up a launch.

 

[Ax^]

morning gio not waiting for the start to spin off

 

[Limejuice]

Just watching the cars heading to the grid. Fuck me, Giovenazzi has hit a wall already.

FFS

Suppose it bodes well for some carnage racing but also likely a fair bit of SC time
