What is the weather forecast now? Has anyone got an hour by hour forecast. I can't remeber what website I used to use, which actually listed all the f1 tracks and had hourly weather forecast or was it two hourly.

Managed to watch p1, still can't believe its last race :(

I don't know why people want it to rain if it did vimto would just in stay in 4th place for all the race.

What I think we need is a very very very hot day and watch vimtos car die

Anyone know if the rear flashing light is linked to running the wet weather engine map, or if its just on a switch?

Just noticed Hamilton's is on while he is on a high fuel run, so McLaren could be testing a wet weather engine map? Ill see it anyone else has that light on?

Think button might be suffering with balance issues. Probablythe rreason for being much lower thanhHamilton
 
Button tried a lower downforce wing, the one used at Spa and Monza, Hamilton kept with the higher one which seems the better way to go around here - especially if wet.

Definitely balance :-P

That's interesting, and probably bodes well for red Bull.

Just hoping for a good race
