Handicap for Lando if safety car is out a lot of laps because these laps count right?

Let's wish for the best for both of our drivers and for Lando to get as many places as possible if the speed in these mixed conditions is still there. Our targets for him is to pass both the Ferraris as we are racing against them and if he can challenge even for victory then it's welcomed.

Im hoping for P3. the Merc has far more pace than the Mclaren.

I also predict Russell will try to assist Hamilton someway at the start

If it's dry or if it dries anywhere before the mid point of the race, the Merc has more race pace. Hamilton will finish #1.



Right NOW looks like a dry start.
2 PM 8/29, 13°, Mostly cloudy, chance of rain=47%
Someone did not watch F1 LIVE: Belgian GP Build Up, it was raining like crazy 5 min ago.

Yep...Although I don't get the delays ...the forecast show higher chances of rain the later in the day you go,,,

On paper, yes… Let’s laps to make up ground… On the other hand, usually the chaos is in the middle of the field, so it might be for the better

The 2 hours start when the race actually starts… The race hasn’t started yet

Is there a possibility we aren't gonna see a race? Is that good for Mclaren or bad?

if it gets run tomorrow, its ok for mclaren i guess - if it just cancelled its bad - you got DR in P4 and a Lando that is totally comfortable with his car in changeable conditions ready to pounce

Will Lando manage in those conditions? Will he be able to clear up the field quickly with that low visibility? Daniel being in the second row won't really have the same problems as Lando in the back.
