2017 FORMULA 1 PIRELLI BELGIAN GRAND PRIX: PRACTICE 1/2/3 *** SPOILERS ***

Last weather update, for what this is worth (this is Spa, after all, where everything is possible weather-wise).

Today Friday, fair weather, sunny, no rain.

Tomorrow Saturday, fair weather also, but some showers expected, notably between 14 and 15:00 local time (Ha...)

Sunday: weather expected to be fine and sunny (for the time being), but a few showers may occur here and there.

Once upon a time, F1 returning after the break was an exciting time..... today, I'm glad it's back, but it's habit, rather than excitement, that causes that. Let's hope the second half of the season proves less predictable (slow tracks ferrari, fast tracks Mercedes) and we get some proper racing, ideally with ferrari winning more often than not

Forza ferrari.......

 

Mornin gents.....got a hurricane knockin on my front door

 

Hey Speedy,any links for us today? I have it on normal channel but just got myself an Android box and want to see what it can do.

Poor Alonso. He has no VTEC.

 

Yep, heard about this on the french radio this morning...

No hurricane in Paris, but it is pouring cats and dogs for the time being, now that's some rain! Spa being 200 miles up north, maybe there too?

Looks like flat through Eau Rouge..oooooppps massa crashed at Malmedy

 

Wow, Massa crashes!

 

Does Vettel have a car problem? Just saw a shot of him in the pits .arms crossed ,looking kind of cheesed off.

 

Bottas that was weird he was keeping out of the way and ran off the track! nerfed the barriers

 

Nice flyer from Kimi just 4mn from the end...top spot for the time being, he always goes well on that track.

Cheers Speedy ..its good

 

Yes he is looking good so far.

 

Vandoorne got a lot of camera time, Kimi virtually none. On to FP2.

 

Some rain showers possible during FP2, according to Belgian friends there...

Yep. First session couldn't read it at all.

Has been for years though...Even GT3 cars are now flat...

 

Yes,with more downforce and bigger tyres i guess it is even 'easier' this year,although even a slightly damp track would make it quite a challenge again.

22 years of Eau Rouge from an F1 car's perspective

 

Massa crash
