I think we'll have a great race, whether its wet or dry.

Maybe MS will take out JPM...HHF will lead for a bit...then it will REALLY rain...the safety car will come out...and the race will be called at half distance, with HHF giving Prost their first win.

Anything to break up another booooooring MS romp!

Damn... no one really knows :rolleyes:

I trust BBC, and CNN´s info. But I think most of the weather will be dry.

BBC says it will be dry. ITV-F1 says it will be dry (but they've not updated the little cloud graphic yet).

MS said this in the post-qualifying comments from la Scuderia:

The weather forecast is for a dry race, which would suit me.

Given that MS is the Spa-meister, I'd agree with him. But in front of him are two very fast, very powerful BMW-Williams cars. They have the best launch control system, so it should be interesting to see what strategy the reds come up with that'll make Michael win...

Based on what we've seen so far this weekend it will probably be a little bit of all of these conditions!

It seems that the misty damp conditions suit the Michelin tyres this weekend. But, on what I gathered from Ralf's comments if intermediate tyres are needed then eveyone driving a non Bridgestone shod car is in some real trouble. This is quite scary considering one of the Michelin cars at the front is the Prost of H2F!!

I hope it will be mixed condition. Start off dry, then rain heavily, then drizzle and start drying!
But, hey whta are the odds of all that happening? Probably NIL!
:rolleyes:
