This could make it a little more interesting... if it's correct...

Weather
If it does rain, here is the stewards ante-race report in the event of a wet weather forecast.

"As the McLaren is better in the rain than the Ferrari, we have decided to give McLaren a stop-go penalty in the event of rain, allowing the Ferraris to catch up. This will ensure that McLaren don't get too far ahead in the championship."

The best drivers will end up in the best cars, the teams want the fastest. JB is not the fastest hence Ferrari/mcLaren etc. not getting him in.

Having said that, there are a lot of drivers in top cars that aren't really the fastest (cough coulthard cough) but traditionally they were number 2 drivers which we don't have anymore (apparently)

Oh dear. Bucketing it down at Monza at the moment. The McLaren garage is about to be flooded by the look of it.

Video has been showing lots of replays of drivers cutting the chicane.
