It's all over for today,they'll try again tomorrow but the forecast is more of the same all weekend.

The weather forecast looks solid for weekend and the fog should lift by 13.10 GMT just the slight medic helicopter excuse hanging with the 'wrong' kind of rain (UK railways systems fail excuse)

..and it seems wrong that someone can challenge his record while he can't do anything incapacitated.

Indeed my friend . Just like M. Schumacher , Alex Zanardi responded only 2 times with his eyes while they let him hear some noises in his ears .
Both got permanent brain damage . It's so sad !

It's slightly unusual in a way that they got those head injuries well away from driving F1 cars.It goes to show it's a dangerous world if it can catch them out and us if we're not careful.

I'm hoping the lack of running in FP1 and FP2 shakes up the racing this weekend. They've already got a lot less data since the current crop of cars has never run here, hopefully we see some real game time decisions being made on setup and tire choice.

I was looking forward to Mick driving in Friday. It sucks.

Weather should improve today with even some sun though whether Mick 'has a go' in car 99 is in the lap of the gods.
Tomorrow is return to Friday weather (good for Max

) and race to go ahead with ambulance combined with medic helicopter route sorted should there be a casualty being taken to Koblenz.

yco · 10-10-2020, 05:18 AM

things are normal since Vettel spun.. not clear if its covid related but this time Stroll doesnt feel good and he is not out on track in practice.. Hulk can come into play..

Sometimes drivers eat some dodgy food, it's happened before.

Lance is having a covid test to clear him from that to take part in quali if he's well enough from whatever else he's sick from.
