Than I fear the worst for the Ferrari tyre choise and a clown strategy in the rain .

Ferrari is on a downward spiral...

90% chance @ 13.00 and 40% @ 15.00 at race start. Silverstone is directly above me in a North line from where i am with white/greyish clouds here and for sure squally conditions of around 14-15C will be not good for the SF24.
I'm out on the bike now before the rains arrive..

*Now 100% chance of rain here at 13.00, clouds moving in and winds picking up with 50% at 15.00 and none at 16.00...well south to Silverstone.

The view from today’s seats at Woodcote.

We can see the cars coming down the Wellington straight into Brooklands, Luffield and then down past the old pits.

Happy with our pick.

Can be seen that smart Nico R looks different from what can normally be seen on the streets of Britain. Great pics !

The Sun is out for now. It’s been raining off and all day so I’m not sure how long the sunshine will last?

I wouldn't be surprised...

After the 10 laps , the gap is 2.5 sec.

Mr Pete · 07-07-2024, 10:20 AM

Where did this Mercedes pace come from all of a sudden? I actually wouldn’t mind seeing Lewis win his home race. Guy hasn’t won in a long time, and just goes about his business without much of a word.
