Maybe the number of 2 time winners is much longer than they wanted the list to be. It also doesn't look as if the order in each bracket would follow any logic (e.g. the one who achieved a certain number of wins first is on top. That is obviously not the case as Lauda is in front of Schumacher).

You're right. Most likely the graphic designer didn't want to have the whole facts bar the clean layout :roll:

So we have Pirelli again wanting to try out new prototypes and it is forecasted we again have rain on friday.

It's like the heavens want to interfere with the tyre debacle: "you shall not drive altered tyres this season!!" :lol:

Could someone please pm me the timetable for Saturday or post a good link? The official one has been deactivated (?!) and instead there's a "download guide" option which is a very low resolution pdf, so low you can't actually read the timetable!!

Also, I'm not sure Prost would appreciate having a British flag next to his name... :lol:

Given that RBR is shown as winning Silverstone twice - no. This was an infographic that came out before Silverstone 2012

Dry for the rest of the weekend, maybe a shower towards the end of the race.

I'm a few miles SW of the circuit (the direction that the prevailing weather comes from) and it's been dry for an hour or two now - the road outside the house is dry. Doesn't look like any rain is likely although don't rule it out towards the end of FP2.

The weather looks ok for the rest of the weekend with temps slightly higher during the race than during qualifying. Still not likely to be hot though, maybe 20degC if we're lucky.

Indeed, but a better yardstick would be if Nico went out with the old one back to back...

Edit, I wonder if Lewis has the new floor and the rest of the upgrades... Thereby splitting the testing duties? Maybe Lewis only has the new floor? Somehow I doubt that philosophy is the best one though...

Goujon is killing it on the long runs. I think they'll take off the DRD for Raikkonen, also Ferrari seems to be nowhere around here.
