Seeing Montoya through Eau Rouge should be something!

Oh yes indeedy...did you see the onboard footage of him qualifying at the Nurburgring this year? He was getting oversteer through the 250kph+ left/right sweeper after Dunlop-Kurve, and snapping it back in line straight away. I think that was on his fastest lap too. Yum. I wonder if he can manage a powerslide or two for the spectators sitting at Eau Rouge

Should be interesting to see how Ralfie's FW23B compares to JPM's FW23 - I'm not sure if Ralf does have an entire revision of the chassis, but he'll certainly be running a newer one if this is anything to go by...http://www.f1i.com/articles/ARTICLE_234523.html

I had a bizarre dream about Spa last night actually. I was standing at the first corner with some friends (actually on the track

), and we all legged it over the barriers when the lights went out. Mika started from 6th I think, and got past everyone under braking for the first corner, but put the power on too early and swung the back end round into a wall. He then hit the steering wheel a lot in frustration.

You scared? You should've seen me run when those lights went out

Sure it only happened once?

We have enough of this poem this year! Please No again!

May it be the wet qualification!

Positive - the only other time they were anywhere near running into each other was Nurburgring 97 which, contrary to popular opinion (it seems most people weren't paying attention), was Fisichella's fault.

So yes, only once.

OK.

Only if it rains, stops, it rains, stop... many crashes... and a Sauber comes to the lead.... KIMI !!!!! (Like Johnny in a Jag in Nurbugring.)

My response was agreeing with RussianFriend's comment on F1manoz' post about the "poetry" of TGF taking his 52nd win at Spa, 10 years after he made his debut there. So "someone else" in my case only means someone other than TGF, we don't need a Sauber winning, don't be too drastic!

Anyone know what the weather forecast says?

Well there is only the weather for Friday and Saturday there at the moment, but according to the ITV at http://www.itv-weather.co.uk/formula_one/index.html, it's time to pack your umbrella...

R · 28 Aug 2001, 21:19 (Ref:137262)

Oh no... well we can still hope for a dry Sunday, can't we, even if it's starting to look more and more unlikely...
