Meh tis a shame i wont be able to this weekend...but i guess the BBC F1's coverage will do just fine

Silverstone is usually a good race. Great atmosphere and great track.
Some new regs will be in place and most teams have considerable updates... perhaps RB will not be as far ahead, but whether it is caused by the ban on off-throttle gas its difficult to know.

I hope i can watch all of it (some FP, Q, race and so on) but I've been way so busy.....

The new Renault livery - how can some something suck and blow at the same time..... What is that color? baby poop-beige?

[schumifan]

But that said wouldnt it be more satisying if Mclaren snatched it by a whisker. And especially by cunning strategy and excellent driving. Much better than ruinning ahead by a country mile with a superior machine[/quote]

Like Vettel did in Barcelona? (Without KERS)

Red Bull still looks good, but Renault Lotus not.

Just finished watching practice and I am verging on not liking the new layout and pit lane complex; it seems very odd to not turn straight into Copse corner from the start, maybe it'll grow on me?

Can someone, please, find a picture of the changed parts of the track?

I was following it on my Iphone. Results look abnormal with Ferraris, McLarens and Vettel quite low. Was it raining by any chance? I have no idea of the weather situation at Silverstone at this moment of time.

Quite wet. C'mon, as much as it makes me happy to see it, Barrichello in P3 driving that Williams?

It was a mixed wet/drying session; but that doesn't matter as FP1 doesn't give any clues to true form!

Priory and Bridge are gone and the Arena complex has been added and Vale has been re-profiled!

True.

Turns out Hamilton has lost that Jock strap beard from his face for this weekend, should be on for a win.

GOOD! He must have given up on his love of impersonating Craig David. As a person who proudly displays a proper mans beard I can tell you that facil hair of that nature is not a beard.

RB a leader in # of laps completed, shared by both drivers.
RB deliberately running Webber out of fuel (edit: I don't mean conspiracy, it was them trying to work out fuel loads now they don't have extreme overrun).
Hamilton going out in the wet on slicks, quite deliberate as they clearly did constant speed aero runs with him.
Ferrari has a literal mountain of upgrades, almost every part of the car has changes. Rear wing, front wing, floor, DRS, sidepod covers, rear suspension.

Those are the key points from this morning practice for me.
