I think we will have a bit of a shake up at Spa, generally Lewis is not so good here, and Kimi is often on fire, so my prediction is


1. Kimi
2. Nico
3. Lewis

then again, if it rains then all bets are off and anyone can win ... as we know!

I'm trying to figure out if Nico is not going to race if his wife goes into labour, is that what he/the team is saying ?

That might just be worth a fiver at the local bookies - odds should be good too.

well, that's what I was thinking, but why do they keep on banging on about having a pane on standby at the local airport ?

Hope you didn't take the plunge on that one. Poor Kimi

What is interesting is that Rosberg is generally a bit faster than Hamilton in sector 1, which is where the overtaking takes place. With DRS etc, it could mean that if he gets ahead there, he'll stay there.

No, I didn't put the bet on

Good point about Rosberg and sector 1.
