The Official Spanish GP Thread ***SPOILERS***
Discussion
Am I the only one that noticed there is a GP in less than 4 days time ? I thought the Mods started these, or . . . . where is Saab bloke ?
Anyhow, any change to the established order ? is there an established order ? will the fuglyfying of the Macca help ? or hinder ?
Will the Spanish one get a Fezza to give him a chance of having results not only attributable to him ?¿
Will DRS give us a non-Montmeloesque / non-snooze-fest (didn't help much last year if I remember)

Terribly sorry old chap. I've been a bit busy in the last week or so learning how to set up a company and how to copyright certain things etc. Challenging stuff for a non-paperwork bod such as myself.Anyway, Button, Webber, Hamilton, Micky S in the race with a Rosberg pole.

Ohh dear, this is not what Maranello have spent so much time money and effort to hear. Go show em Alonso. Write off Ferrari not.Anyway, Button, Webber, Hamilton, Micky S in the race with a Rosberg pole.
I have high hopes of Mclaren managing to unleash a bit more of their cars potential, but unfortunately I dont hold out too much hope of an exciting spectacle.
What they should do is scrub this (and any other) bore-fest circuits off the calendar, and instead hold 2 races at tracks as voted by the teams/drivers.
The only stipulation will be that the selected track will then be raced in the opposite direction
Can you imagine watching an F1 car hurtle DOWN Eau Rouge!!!!!!!!
And back in the real world.

I'm going to stick my neck out and say Red Bull and Ferrari to do well in quali and the race, with McLaren not far behind, then Renault, then Mercedes.
I am also a mere 75clicks or so away, but will be in Helsinki this weekend. . . . & someone forgot to say "The Boeings yours, feel free to nip down to Girona & jump in the heli to make it in time for the start of the race"
I always enjoyed GP's watched from the Tribune at the 1st corner, although, there was never the level of "action" you expected at that corner.
Maybe, no race next year (ever?) here again, if I was home I might be tempted to buy a Gen Admission tkt just for that reason if no other.

www.meteocat.cat is the local one, and they say 27c for Sunday, & I have 28c in the shade on my balcony as I write, think you can forget a cool weekend.
Cold Beer & head protection for those going.

Mclaren have got a new high nose for the weekend. Apparently tested for the last few hours at Mugello and it was improvement enough so have it introduced for this weekend. Sounds like a huge upgrade as it won't just be a new nose.
Should be interesting !

From a briefing I read, the high nose is to be run in FP1 on Friday in comparison with the low nose, then a decision will be made on the race weekend package. But also the nose may switch depending on the needs of the circuits.
