Poll: Official 2023 Belgian Grand Prix Thread - Spa-Franchorchamps, Stavelot - Round 13

[reef]

As annoying as it is, it wouldn't be the worst top 10 grid in the world:

1. Perez
2. Alonso
3. Hamilton
4. Russell
5. Sainz
6. Verstappen
7. Leclerc
8. Norris
9. Stroll
10. Ocon

Max will still win though.

Grid penalties would still be applied though, hence @reef has the right order.

(Man, apparently I was slow on that!)

 

[chrismscotland]

Doh! I forgot about the penalty!

 

[chrismscotland]

Wierd seeing so much of Brundle on a Friday!

They need to do something about wet weather running.

Force a minimum ride height

Ride height is raised with the wet tyres anyway, its more to do with the spray and lack of visibility. They were experimenting with wheel guards not long ago, but said it needed further tweaking.

Looking a lot drier at Spa now

Looking a lot drier at Spa now

That's good to know, after FP1 i wasn't sure it'd be worth watching the qualifying today

 

[andy_mk3]

There was a dry line but rain coming again now

 

[chrismscotland]

Yeah I don't see Qualifying happening if this rain stays on, amazing how quick it changes

 

[utajoker]

F2 quali, chucking it down
No one going out

 

[Mr Jack]

Rain radar looks like this will have passed before the F1 quali starts. Probably a delayed start, but I think we'll get running.

Does Quali have a window of time they are allowed like the race does, if it doesn't start on time?

I don't think so - if its not started - its not started

 

[cainer]

Spa is such a great track, just a shame the weather affects it so much :/

 

[Stumble Bum]

10 min delay to qualy

 

[Mr Jack]

Drying track should make Q1 interesting.
