I really fear that the sunday will be the same and we wont see any race. :/
The forecast is much better for Sat-Sun.
You’re right, but those forecast also told sunny weekend a few days before. But we hope so :)

Within 72hrs forecasts become much more reliable. Localised storms surrounded by good weather are always hard to predict as it can be raining over the track and sunny a couple of miles away. It does look much better tomorrow and Sunday (Too good? Rain showers would be interesting) although fog has always been a problem at the Nürburgring so with low temperatures a heli problem can’t be ruled out.

This lack of practice is a problem on two fronts.

Firstly, it's boring.
Secondly, no one else has the chance to get to grips with this massive dip leading out of the chicane. It's giving Max an almost unfair advantage over everyone else. I expect to see him on pole by a clear 0.4 seconds ahead of second place and I guess the race result is also a foregone conclusion.

Exactly. Just Max. Albon doesn't know the trick!

I found it unfair that only Lewis has been doing some running today. But was the teams fault, they answered with Affirmative when he asked if he could do some running. Misunderstanding. And really, FIA’s fault, nowhere in the rules is it stipulated on track running is only allowed in a car.
