    Yeah. The 10 day outlook does show the possibility of rain all weekend. But, isn't that almost always the case in that region? Seems like it . . . .

    Perhaps Lance in his 5th season is finally feeling some pressure to perform? He is being outclassed by Lando, Charles, Ocon and others.

    Lance doesn't care. He's just satisfied that he gets to drive an F1 car regardless of his performance.

    I hope he chooses somone els to T-Bone this time...Bottas or Elton would be nice choices, but he won't be around them, maube he can get something like Alonso....
