2010 was really cold as well. I had 2 jumpers on in August!

I remember the crazy rain during the GP3 race. The cost of sitting in the covered grandstand seemed worth it at that moment :p

No way it's gonna stay dry for 3 days in Belgium :) The weather has been changing every hour for the past 2 weeks, feels like autumn at some point.

A few showers with temperature that struggles to reach 20 degrees and quite windy as well.

Spa is awesome, full stop. Drove it myself for the first time with my own car during a public driving experience on Easter Monday and it was sensational ! :D

You can do the pit walk with any valid ticket for Belgian GP :)

I'm parking with confidence, I've got sun screen. Mostly because I burnt in the 10 minutes of sun we had last time I was there.
Brilliant circuit, brilliant event. I can't wait.
Current forecast is for rain Saturday, but can you really trust it? :p

Looks like Team Retard are making the first of no doubt many hundreds of hilarious decisions up to the inevitable point when they implode and go out of business in the near future.

I'll be missing the race because I'm flying to America, so it will probably be awesome. :(

That was on Friday probably. I went that day as well and it was horrendous. I left at 2pm because it was unbearable.


Friday 2012 was my first time attending F1. I stayed all day but at the end it wasn't really worth it anymore.

I heard that this Friday was the day with the least laps ever. Don't know if it's true but I could understand why..

Even my McLaren cap couldn't take it anymore and leaked right over me:

So Lotterer has been replaced on the entry list for Motegi... why is that I wonder? :whistling: Funny that Caterham's faster, better driver is the one that is supposedly being replaced. Ericsson's contract must really be as bullet proof as his management says.

I like Lotterer, but I like Kobayashi even more. They have replaced the wrong driver IMO, sadly Kamui didn't bring any money. Hope Lotterer doesn't ruin his career for his shot at F1.

It's not confirmed yet, and there's no way in hell that Audi will kick out their best driver for this.

Lotterer will be in the Caterham cockpit for the whole Spa weekend. Only 1 race planned so far. So Kobayashi should be back at Monza
