Before you post, ask yourself:

"Am I capable of discerning the topic at hand and posting something on topic and relevant?"

If the answer is "What does discerning mean?" then I suggest you look at what you are posting, and where you are posting it.

Please ladies and gentlemen, stop polluting the race and car threads with off topic banter.
Before I do anything I ask myself “Would an idiot do that?” And if the answer is yes, I do not do that thing. - Dwight Schrute

Startline's been moved forwards. Would advantage the polesitter that little bit more. http://www.gpupdate.net/en/f1-news/2646 ... ine-moved/

I wish for once it would be a full-wet race, rather than changing conditions. Anyone have a reliable weather forecast link?

I would love a full wet track that dries over the time, but in the end it starts raining again. A full wet track wont be seen anyway, that is 'too dangerous'

By "full wet" I meant something more like China 2009 or Monza 2008; when the track is *constantly* wet. Rather than part dry part wet.

Canada this year? Not sure about anyone else, but I would class that as full wet?

I would rather see a Silverstone 2008, that was a real wet track, but they wont race on that since it is 'too dangerous' see Canada this year, Silverstone 2008 was way wetter

Reliable weather forecast and the Nürburgring are mutually exclusive ;) Within minutes there can be torrential rain in the Müllenbachschleife whereas the pit crews are swaeting in the sun ^^

The area is famous for some really hot days in june ,I had more than once picked up severe sunburns up there ,but it is also famous for drizzly weather ...cold and damp conditions with showers followed by short periods of sunshine...

weather forecast for Adenau is falling temps till Sunday and it looks like 12°C no sunshine and light rainshowers from 13:00 ....

It looks like Friday FP1 is rainy FP2 is dry and Saturday could be dry as well ,but cold...so not the best news for the teams who have difficulty to get their tyres to work as there is not much in terms of high speed cornering and breaking ....

Marcush,

Have you just described perfect W02 conditions? :D
More could have been done.
