Donington Park on Sunday. Weather report?

Question

Ohh dear!

This :

http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?id=1632

is the forecast up untill Saturday. In a nut shell, we are going to get wet for D.O.C, soaked on Friday free practice, even more soaked on Saturday QP2 and no doubt poured on for Sunday.

If this is the case, we need to think our riders out again. Here is my shot for a rain soaked Donny!

MOTOGP:

1) Chris (71)

2) GOD (46)

3) Barros. (4)

250GP:

1) Ant West (14)

2) Dovi (34)

3) Lorenzo (1)

125GP:

1) Smith (38) [ yes I know he's British !! ]

2) Gabor (14)

3) Corsi (24)

So.............. whats your 2 pennys worth?????

Answer 1

lets see... the last time when the weather was bad everyone had horrible luck. But the problem with it was that they didn't really expect it. So what's the chance this time the ducati team to get prepeared? Hm... lets say

1) Chris

2) Rossi

3) Stoner

At the 250cc:

1) Lorenzo

2) Barbera

3) Bautista

andd 125GP:

this Smith.... I agree he has a good chance in winning so if his first... I hope Pasini gets second or third.. although he has this bad luck following him around so... who knows ;) and I really want to see what is Rabat going to do...

I'm never right when I try to guess something but :} hope Rossi gets more points than Stoner... nothing else matters to me :D

Answer 2

MOTOGP:

1) Chris

2) Rossi

3) Hopkins

250GP:

1) Lorenzo

2) De-Angelis

3) West - gotta back those Aussies in the wet

125GP:

1) Smith - Go Smithy, go Smithy, go Smithy

2) Pesek

3) Talmacsi

Answer 3

Hey again Wiggy,

Firstly, the beeb are dilettantes when it comes to weather - go direct to the source

http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/u...

and click on the 3-5 day forcast tomorrow - or better yet enter a location and save the page. Unfortunately the rain will be as wet with either forcast! - Plus of course there's bound to be loads of really hot sun between showers so everyone can steam up as well as squelch about and get sunstroke! LOL That's England for you!

As for the racing, like you I think Vermeulin has got a gift for wet weather racing, and Hopkins seems to have his game face on lately so I can see Suzuki taking some points - or podiums in the near future.

The wet weather can be a bit of a lottery for riders but  lets face it, it can make edge of the seat viewing! That said I'm gonna put my money (well 12 points) on:

1) Rossi

2) Pedrosa

3) Vermeulin.

For the 250 - we'll probably see Lorenzo win again, but the 125 is gonna be really exciting I think. (like the last race)

Bradly Smith is going to be so hyped (and psyched up) It really could be his day. Lets hope!

By the way - odd choice of yours Barros - do you know something we don't?
