Belgian Grand Prix
F1 is back after a painful break! And what better track to kick start things.....again.
First practice just started, and Mercedes are the only team who have put up a time until now.

There is also torrential rain there. I'm glad I didn't go!
I have a feeling Schuey will do well this weekend actually. Fingers crossed. You being such a fan of his, I'm sure your coccyx was wagging with delight once you saw him out on track

Even though it was rain affected, The Shoe on top is an ominous sign hock:

FP2 punctuated by rain. Difficult to decide who is on the pace but Mercedes looked strong at a time when the conditions were sub prime going dry. Red Bull, Ferrari and McLaren look strong and PdR looks stronger than his time.
All 3 British drivers completed only 6 laps each. Wonder what cycle the engines are on.
