I think Doohan's on the fence about it! What's he going to demonstrate in this weather? He could smash the car up though..

In terms of seat time, this is not what a wanabe F1 driver would wish for.

Seems like the travellers they got to retarmac the hairpin in 2008 have come back and done the whole circuit and have sealed it all up so the water can't go anywhere.

Well done for updating your language for 2024. (Political correctness gone mad, etc.)

Ha! Jaques Villeneuve is on the team this weekend!
That's the first time he's done this, I think?
Wish someone would ask him what the Williams hospitality is like.

Big cajones from Mr Hamilton, first man out, and on the Inters.

(They only have three sets of the full wets for the whole weekend).

Edit: Lando faster on the Wets, but didn’t finish the lap.

Turns out he didn't get any time at all, other than a single installation lap.

Not that I could take Danica seriously previously, but it's even worse now she's outed herself as a loon who believes the moon landings were faked. She adds nothing.

Ps. You'll never guess her political affiliation rolleyes
