Heh, I was at that race as well (Stowe). We could just about see a TV screen, but there was also a guy next to us who had a live stream of the race on his laptop. That seemed so technically advanced for 2004.

It wasn't always easy to get the information at the track. After watching the qualifying session in 2000, we had to ask around to see who actually had pole. You couldn't hear the commentary over the sound of those engines, and the positions were changing constantly because of the drying track.

That race was fantastic

The bit where they're racing head on at each other while helicopters take off and land on the track would raise a few eyebrows now yeah

Latest weather models predict rain during the qualifying, but since we're probably talking about showers, it's up to the luck whether some cloud hits the track or not. So it's not like Montreal which was wet and gloomy the whole day.

I'm reading the grace period regarding jewelry ends this weekend. Who will hold its foot in place the longest. The FIA or Hamilton.

If both stick to their guns, Hamilton wouldnt be allowed to race. Could potentially be the most interesting battle this weekend.
On one hand they'd be crazy to not let the local (and global) star not run his home race. On the other hand, what better way to show dominance by not letting the local (and global) star run his home race.

and that's one of the reasons that Danny should stay for at least one more year

The forecasts have been wrong all week, they predicted rain today and we had sun instead, yesterday sun and it rained during the morning. It's that kind of year where the weather can change on a sixpence.

It’s raining

Hopefully we get some running

Raining hard now

They said the smooth surface would suit Mercedes’ better but Lewis was sparking there quite a lot already on his out lap

With the weather so unpredictable, hopefully they will decide they have no choice.

Never realized how many raindrops actually stayed on the visor during rain until they showed that helmet cam

Approaching full wet conditions

It's chucking it down on the old pit straight but much less so at the other end.

I'm starting to think Pirelli might have actually, finally made good wet-weather tyres. They did pretty well in Canada last week on the proper ones and the inters seem to be coping surprisingly well in the heavier rain.

And now the sun is shining

Silverstone as usual
