I think a wet Quali. could well lead to a Lewis Max front row with some other interesting grid places behind.

Hahaha Grosjean has crashed IN the pit lane and knocked the front wing off. He now has to do a full lap as he can’t reverse down the pit lane. Gooood god.

The forecast is for scattered showers, so it could be wet-dry or dry-wet or dry-wet-dry. It could be chaos or it could be business as usual.

That was an impressively slow speed accident followed by a comedy lap of shame!

Am I right in thinking this is the first time out for anything competitive on the freshly resurfaced track ?

It'll usually be a separate one for practise, so this shouldn't affect his race.

What the hell has happened to him, I was watching a replay of GB GP 2012 a couple of nights ago, and the duel with Hamilton was epic.

I know. Just curious as we haven't seen much of this kind of failure this season.

Also suggestion it could have been the PU - although I imagine that shut down automatically in response to a gearbox failure. Guess we'll find out soon enough.

He's got to be on very thin ice, in real danger of losing his drive for next season.

Judging by Croftys response to the RE tweet it looks like sky have advised them not to discuss the situation other than what's already been written
