Saturday practice was a wet, windy and greasy skate rink... The McLaren boys did 3 laps! Forecasts are calling for changing conditions all weekend, so we might see a wet quali session and maybe even a wet race!

BTW, Jacques Villenueve is looking mighty comfortable in the wet.

No sleep for me last night... I received a phone call in the middle of the night and the freakin' jetlag kicked in... so I just waited for F1 to start.
