I live about 45minutes from the track, and right now the sun is out and the rain has stopped, so maybe we won't get a wet quali this time.

Lewis is on inters on a track that hasn't been declared wet. Doubt the stewards will do anything though.

FIA really need to look into sending their own team of properly trained marshals to these flyaway races, before someone gets killed.

Up until this year the silverstone marshals used to travel to china but some of the tracks objected to having to pay for flights/accommodation so they are not there today.

Red bull are currently refusing to sign the new engine agreement for 2017 because they want the manufacturers to get hosed over by Bernie with the two different engine types thing and quit the sport. gently caress Red Bull.

Actually when you see Merc getting 3rd place on Q2 with a lap on softs it's easy to see that Bernie Is Always Right and Red Bull is the hero in this situation, which is hosed Up But True

Much like sexy time, it will only happen in your imagination.

I missed qualifying because "early" but the result is good, it makes it a lot more interesting to see Hamilton have to drive hard for his WDC rather than just strolling it like last year.
