Abbie Eaton and Beitske Visser followed Moore into the tyres with Ayla Ågren, Belén García then striking the near-stationary cars.

Nasty prang. I hope all involved are ok (especially abbie as she's always been sex on wheels, even if I am the wrong gender).

Saving grace ......
At least none of them were reversing anywhere!!! It would have been absolute and total carnage! I assume reverse gear is banned in W series?

 <ducks> and hopes for the best!

Well, what a sexist twat!

<Mrs Prof made me post this>

Edit: She can't bloody reverse either!

Heh heh heh, I always chuckle to myself reading on here.

So, any predictions for pole and race win?

Actually, any predictions for the weather too? This looks like a potentially great race weekend (can watch the MotoGP for free before the race as well). Who is on top mentally? Max or Lewis? If it rains who has the upper hand?

I love F1.

Dangerous game, making F1 predictions. Here's mine ....

"Rain in buckets and a masterful Lewis Hamilton win."

There you go, I've put the mockers on it!

[black]

Chaotic race, deluge of rain, title challengers crash into each other, Lando Norris takes maiden win. Orange army commit hari kari.

Mercedes and Red Bull melt down, lose mojo, McLaren fighting at the top in 2022.

<good job I'm not a betting man> Heh

Given the changeable weather predicting anything here looks unwise. If it rains then I would put money on Lewis. But so far the sessions haven't really given any indication of what's going on. My gut is that maybe RBR take the engine penalty here, especially if it is going to rain. Get it out of the way. But if it does rain do they need the engine change? Have a sneaky suspicion Mercedes hid more pace yesterday, especially P2.

FP3 - if it stays like this for the rest of the event then surely the teams will not have enough inters?

[Jody Barton]

There's no way they'll have enough Inters if it stays like this, especially the teams that get through to Q3. I happen to think it might be wetter on Sunday looking at the forecast, but it's going to be touch and go. I think it looks like a straight fight between Max and Lewis here, not sure who has the edge so far.

Looking at things right now I'm not sure we'll get qualifying . It's way too wet.

[morini]

DiResta and Bungle have their brollies down now. Fingers crossed.

[Jody Barton]

Definitely fingers crossed. We'll get quali, but it might be wets because they think it's going to be light rain throughout the first two quali sessions at least.

Dan and Max talking to Ant just now. Gotta be honest, I love watching Max drive but really can't stand listening to him talk. Comes across like an entitled twat to me.
