the weather pattern is for 90% rain on Monday. If it moves faster we could still see some on Sunday. Btw, last year we had a 10% chance of rain, and it was nearly wet! I remember it kept me excited for most of the race, seeing the clouds bubble up and growing darker and darker. |

It doesn't matter about the rain, but the ambient temperatures. A maximum of 13c is very cold and that is going to hurt the tyres |

Should be warmer on Sunday. But lower temps mean less heat into the tyres, which would mean less tyre wear ? |

But equally, lower tyre temperature would mean less grip as well. And if it rains, it doesn't matter. New tyre markings http://yfrog.com/h81yalwj |

Does anybody remember the massive rain during WTCC 2005 or 2006 event? Track flooded, mud everywhere. |

New tyre markings http://yfrog.com/h81yalwj Honestly, what is the point of those tyre markings?? It still will be difficult to identify the compound from onboard. I thought the solution they had in Shanghai and Sepang was perfect for both external and internal views. |
