Ah yes we're certain about one thing: no DRS today.

So, if they get to a point were they put slick tyres, can they use DRS then?

If the FIA declare the track dry then yes they can.

I believe the rule is that DRS is disabed if the track is declared wet by the race director.

I believe if its a mixed conditions race with it going from dry/wet or wet/dry then DRS will be disabled as long as somebody is running on Inter's or wets. DRS will the only be enabled once everyone is running on slicks.

I think?

Nick Heidfeld is one of the drivers who went for a wet downforce set-up yesterday. He's pretty good in this type of race...


He might be a good bet then

Last time I saw a wet open wheel race at Montreal was the 2006 ChampCar race (Race starts 11mins in):



What a horrible race and event.. Btw, we had a wet f1 race in 2000 and there weren't any problem.

Heidfeld will win and it will be glorious.

Glock for a Top 10 as well.

Tracks drying but more rain expected:

I'd rather a dry start but rain 8-10 laps in.

Going to be a massive gamble on whether to go with Inters or full wets. I can see a midfield team splitting their options.

If it's SC start then everyone must start full wets.
