F1: Hungary

TO be honest with you, he may well win, HOWEVER:

I don't beleive MSc is the "rainmaster" anymore. He makes too many mistakes these days.

However, someone who is truly good in the rain is DC! Although bit of a shame he's so far back today

Its belting it down

This is going to be a cracking race, schumi and alonso have to fight and the pouring rain adds to the fun

Its kinda F1 related but i have to say get well soon to an ex-f1 driver, chistiano da matta, who has been in intensive care for the past few days following a crash in champ car testing.

Well this may make the Hungarian GP interesting for a change, we may even see some overtaking

.

Looks like most will start on inters as the rain has stopped falling. Wonder who'll make the brave decision to come in first to change to slicks (if the track continues to dry).

The track does look pretty wet, will take a while to dry i think, probably a good 35-40 laps.

Alonso into 5th, more of a rainmeister than Schumacher it seems

Arc · 6 Aug 2006 at 13:07

Wonder how the two different tyres will react while still cold.

Stormrider · 6 Aug 2006 at 13:08

yay for rain to actually make hungary a decent race

Arc · 6 Aug 2006 at 13:09

Bridgestones 4secs a lap slower by the looks of things.

clv101 · 6 Aug 2006 at 13:09

Alonso and Schumacher, incredible, absolutely incredible opening laps.

Creature · 6 Aug 2006 at 13:09

What a pass by Alonso.

Arc · 6 Aug 2006 at 13:10

Its raining again, time for full wets?

Or not, as the case may be!!

PS just started raining again.

pps Del La Rosa overtakes Barichello.

Over Clocker · 6 Aug 2006 at 13:12

Alonso is fastest man on the track.

Barrichello PITS.

oh no, if he taking his full wets off for intermediates, just as it starts to rain heavily!!?

Stormrider · 6 Aug 2006 at 13:12

Rubens putting on inters when its starting to rain?

el_dazza · 6 Aug 2006 at 13:12

Honda have lost it! Inters when its belting down again? nutters

Arc · 6 Aug 2006 at 13:14

Its the tyres

.

Usually the bridgestones struggle with these conditions, not wet enough for full wets but too wet for the bridgestone inters. If it goes to full wets it may help the bridgestone runners.
