Round Fourteen: Belgium

Since Spa didn't appear on last year's schedule and we thus have worse points of reference than usual, I think it's useful to double the time spans for this race, like for a modified track.

EDIT: The bloody track actually HAS been changed! The time spans will of course stay doubled as mentioned above. The change has occurred at the entry to the Bus Stop, and it should increase the lap times.

How to enter: Just submit your guess for what the pole time will be, and who you think will take pole.
Ten position penalties are ignored if they are due to disciplinary reasons.

Deadline: post/edit before the start of first free practice.
Two late entries per participant and season are allowed, not at new or changed track layouts though. For late entries, the absolute deadline is the start of Q1.

Here are the scoring rules.

Here are the 2004 standings so far.

Three latest poles at Belgium:

Now it says it's going to rain.

Accordingly I have to alter my forecast: Michael Schumacher: 1:42.267.

Since the track is modified, the deadline is strictly at the start of first free practice. So I'm afraid I won't accept your entry, DeathMasteR. Sorry.
