Cloud coverage and showers for Sunday, after mid day. Hope this materializes. Showers every 15-20 minutes will be nice :D

High teens at best. It's going to be the coldest race weekend of the season.
I'm not so sure... Nurburgring in October can beat it easily :)

If rain does affect all 3 days then we'll see very little running during practice, teams will need to save their tires.

How many wet tires are allocated?

I love rain. Imagine the drama.
Not for nothing, Rosberg's Championship is the only thing that lends credibility to Hamilton's recent success. Otherwise, he'd just be the guy who's had the best car. — bhall II

4 sets of intermediates and 3 sets of full wets, plus one additional set of inters for practice only, if it's wet

Feels like there would be more running if there were more wet tyres available.

Pirelli is not helping either with their wet tyres. Remember those Bridgestone inters that could do from moderate rain to practically dry? That was a wet tyre. Is it so difficult for them to do something similar?
Yes, Pirelli is the devil. In fact, that is what they call their tires, Diablo. Even more proof. We should have known. Unlike Bridgestone. Which is a bridge, connecting people, allowing them over that darned water (on track) and made of Stone, so dependable and will last forever. =D>
Hmm. Lend me your magnifying glass. :-"

I'd rather have the current Pirelli wet weather tyres, but they need a better full wet. It means the crossover for the slicks from inters is a bit more blurry and create a little more strategy options of exciting racing.
