Actually looking forward this year as I went to the pre season tests and I now want to see again how the track looks on TV.

It was until the first time I went there in 2010 that I began to appreciate the track, atmosphere there is great and the spanish fans are awesome!

Actually there's some rain predicted for Sunday. Hasn't happened since 1996, but since I'm going there, you bet it's going to rain.
What's more, GP2 and GP3 season finally begins :)

such a pity they have put that chicane in the final corner. It was really great to see the cars going into the final corner and full speed towards the straight.

I don't expect much from this race. I think it will be simple 1-2 for Mercedes.

That corner has added nothing of value to this track. It would have worked if it was a Monaco 1984 style flick (not quite the same speed though) leading directly into the final corner.

I have an unreasonable, deep dislike of this venue, even though the 1996 race is one of my fondest F1 memories. But anyway, it's there to bridge the gap until the last week-end of May :excited:

It's been raining everyday almost non-stop here since last Friday. Fucking shit ass Ireland-in-December weather!
Forecast looks quite bad, they predict showers, but it can be a 4am shower for 10 minutes, or light drizzle falling during all the afternoon...

Press conference will be fun tomorrow. Verstappen, Kvyat, Sainz, Hamilton, Alonso to wave the flag and K-Mag to bring the popcorn.

I think Renault took 3.5 monies away themselves meaning eurosport suddenly lost motivation ; )

Without rain you have to hope Mercedes will continue their reliability issues (and for the championship it better start affecting Nico or this battle will be over before the summer break) and ferrari will continue their muck ups too.

And a random flip.

Plz dnt suck that's all I ask.
