"Details" on the BBC site:Japanese Grand Prix: Typhoon a threat to race - Sergio Perez
Never a good sign when a weather event is given a name: Typhoon Phanfone expected to be a category 2-3 storm by Sunday.
"Typhoon Phanfone is gathering strength in the western Pacific Ocean, with projections showing that it may intensify significantly — likely to super typhoon status — before veering toward mainland Japan by Oct. 5.
Computer-model simulations on Wednesday show that the storm will likely intensify over the next few days, while moving northwest, toward extreme southwest Japan or the open East China Sea. However, winds in the upper atmosphere should turn the storm north and then northeast, potentially making a direct hit on several Japanese islands, and scoring a direct hit on Tokyo as a Category One storm."

World renowned meteorologist Sergio Perez says it's a threat to the race! Sometimes think the drivers could just say any gibberish and it'd get printed.Gassing Station | Formula 1 | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
