Poll: Official 2024 British Grand Prix Race Thread - Silverstone Circuit - Race 12/24

[Journey]

Hope we get some rain, should make this more exciting!

We've likely had all the excitement if there isn't any rain.

 

[Flibster]

So a brand new engine for Gasly, and the gearbox craps out. Typical...

The cloud and rain visible in the wider shots, if that’s what’s coming to the circuit it will get interesting.

Rain in 10mins

It feels like they are just trying to make it to the potential rain without doing anything crazy. Or it’s just standard saving of various things..

 

[jonneymendoza]

Couldn't give a toss about a British driver winning to be honest

Why not?

Are you British by any chance?

 

[utajoker]

Max starting to fall back a bit

We walked to the shops and had to hide under trees in the park because it absolutely trounced it down earlier. Doesn’t feel like “rain” today is going to be a little light shower..

 

[Flibster]

That's Perez decisively up into P16

Then on this forum and with this audience i suspect you’re in the minority…

Besides, even without rain I still think Max and Lando have a chance. Different tyres, fuel loads etc can easily make a 1-5secs gap difference. This is no way tied up.

At least they know where that missing bolt was!

 

[Jono8]

I fear Lewis is going to get ****** if they all have to change to inters as he will be 2nd into the pits.

 

[Flibster]

Verstappen pit radio - So expect the rain to last around 5 minutes, then there will be a window of ten minutes before a longer cell

French engineering.

With all the rain, anyone would think they're holding the F1 at Wimbledon.

I'm Scottish but yes - I don't really support any particular driver these days, although if a Brit is going to win I'd rather it was Lando

Honestly couldn't care less if I'm in the minority, I don't watch F1 to support a particular driver or team these days, its got far too toxic

Should get a roof over the track!

 

[chrismscotland]

Surely Hamilton, Piastri and Sainz are going to get screwed here if it rains

 

[Flibster]

Hulkenberg radio - Just spitting, or expecting to go inters?

Pit - Spitting initially, but we think it could become real a lap or two in

 

[Lyle44]

Well this is boring

 

[Stu999]

Strange decision from Sauber if it is going to rain.
