Re: Silly Season 2023

It's believed Piastri's contract with Alpine expired on 31st July. Alpine wanted Alonso to renew for 1 yr as a "seat-warmer" of sorts for Piastri who would join in 24'. Alonso is savage because Alonso announced his Aston Martin move the very next day..... 8) Alonso and Mark Webber do get along extr...

Re: Ricciardo

It will be interesting to see what Norris will do when he drives for a different team. The McLaren chassis is a weird one...as Carlos has said. Put Dan in the Alpine at the beginning of this season and he'd still be thrashing Ocon this year I think. Not to worry, We'll soon have 2 other Aussies in F...

Weather is nice here at the moment. Latest forecast is for possible showers for FP2.
Chance of more thunderstorms early this evening. Then showers all night until Saturday morning.

Saturday forecast is for cold and wet...could affect qualifying?

It should be sunny for the race on Sunday
