Canada 2116

[Bagwan]

Here it comes .
Friday will be cool at 20 degrees Celsius , Saturday 19C , with a 70% chance of rain , and Sunday only 15C with a 30% rain chance .

That sounds like a pretty messed up grid , and a race where there are few tires ever getting to a proper racing temperature , and likely some wacky strategies .

The reds have new stuff , hoping to be a lot faster .
FI is hot right now , so could do some midfield damage in the standings .
The bulls have some momentum right now , and even if the package doesn't fit the track , a wet or cool track could bring good aerodynamics a little more to the fore .

Hell , all the minnows will be looking to score in the cool weather .
Can't wait .

Wish I was there . Good party . Maybe next year . Sigh .

It should be a good weekend, but I'm not sure I am willing to wait that long for it to start. By the way, your weather forecasting skills are good - never seen any that far out in the future before.

Ehh.

And who knows, what is there in Canada in 2116. Bagwan doesn't mention we are talking about F1.

As long as the weather is good, it should be fine though.

wow F1 in 100 years time. What will that be like.

[Bagwan]

Looks like I'm well ahead of all you guys , eh ?

Alright then , let's look back 100 years from 2116 to the race weekend that starts tomorrow .
Strangely , the weather looks exactly the same , and the situation I described is almost identical , except that the cars have wheels and are not made of hemp .

I always love the Canadian GP. It always throws up some excitement. I think Mercedes will be ahead, but maybe the race will not be straight forward.

I expect that F1 will still be run by Bernie Ecclestone

By then , it will be Eccleclone .

But , back to the present , kids .
Sorry to have confused you all .


We've just had the cold and wet they will be getting in Montreal , and it sucked .
I can't see anybody getting the temperature of the tires anywhere near optimum .

Seat pad for the cold butt will be really necessary for anyone going to the race .

[Bagwan]

Weather update has it up to 25C on Saturday , with no rain .
Then , it says it will rain through the night .

And , Sunday's temperature drops like a stone to 14C , and a 60% chance of rain .

There is going to be a lot of guessing going on .

Just hours before first practice , and I can't wait .

[Bagwan]

Lewis fastest by three tenths in first practice on supersofts against Nico on ultras .

Massa , with a malfunctioning DRS , wacks the barriers at turn 1 .

Under an hour until second practice .
