    I couldn't wait.

    The way, way too early weather forecast has the three weekend days at approximately 80F with 10 to 20 % chance of rain. I know, I know . . . way too early.

    I'm not a gambler myself but the odds are at least fun to talk about. No surprises here . . .

    Still 10 days before the race, but we still have odds and Verstappen is a warm early favorite.

    The mighty Dutchman is a -120 shot with Leclerc +275 and the fast-improving Lewis Hamilton at +650.

    Lights out on Sunday August 28 is at 9am Eastern/6am Pacific with the live stream available on ESPN.

    Latest odds from bet365 for the 2022 Belgian Grand Prix are:

    • -120 Max Verstappen
    • +275 Charles Leclerc
    • +650 Lewis Hamilton
    • +800 Carlos Sainz

    I hope not! That was torture. We wait through the summer break knowing that the paitence will be rewarded with a race on one of the most glorious of all F1 circuits. And for that to be turned into a two lap parade behind Safety Car was enough for one to consider Hari Kari.

    Recently, the behaviour of some Formula 1 fans during Grand Prix weekends has come under scrutiny on a number of occasions. Misbehaviour was particularly reported during the Austrian GP and since then organisers have been doing everything they can to prevent a repeat at their own event.

    I've got to think that the flares and smoke can make it a miserable weekend in the grandstands.

    Was in Brussels/Boom mid-July, got a little rain but nothing terrible. If it rains it rains. Can't change it, no sense spending days wringing hands over it. ;)

    The still a bit too early forecast shows rain for Friday (75% chance), AM rain on Saturday (45% chance) and only a 20% chance of rain on Sunday. Highs each day about 75F.
