Season 11 - Weather

[Valter Ostman]

Make it your own way Daniel. And thanks for creating the extra spice.

 

[Nicolai Nicholson]

I agree

You have all the feedback and info you need from us Daniel?

 

[Peter Marshall]

Rain at the first race of the season then. That would be a first.

and thank you very much Daniel.

 

[Reik Major]

Thanks for asking Daniel. I agree, do what you think could be fine.

 

[Daniel Hansson]

I think we will start with a dry race just to get everyone into the groove. And that will give me a bit more time on deciding on how I should proceed with the weather this season.

 

[Daniel Hansson]

Are we running a two forecast format or will it just be necessary with one?

 

[Sean Greenlaw]

Whatever you can do Daniel is fine, i like two for extra suspense

 

[Reik Major]

I'm fine with everything.

I can imagine having two forecasts, one forecast or simply no forecast at all. Even knowing that there's some random weather would be thrilling.

 

[Bob Luneski]

It would seem a single forecast with wider range of probabilities of precipitation within each session might result in a lighter workload for you, But I'm good with whatever you do. Thanks for your time and effort.

 

[Valter Ostman]

I like the first forecast. The more detailed one isn't as important. Preparation should be done by then. Thanks for the weather Daniel.

 

[Peter Marshall]

No forecast is required. Surprise us.

 

[Nicolai Nicholson]

I like both what Valter sais and what Peter sais.

To add on what Valter sais, a detailed forecast the day before race where it e.g. sais that there most likely will be rain in the race will make it "important" for everybody to practice some wet the last 24 hours. This I think is not the best because:
-Some don't have time to practice the last 24 hours
-Some can make the time, but it stresses their RL
-Some have time and motivation and can practice sufficiently

 

[Reik Major]

Very good points Nico!

 

[Daniel Hansson]

I think we will do like this, atleast for Silverstone:
We'll have just one forecast, posted one week before the race (wednesday evening). It will be pretty general, but will give you an idea of what the weather might be.

 

[Reik Major]

Thank you very much for your support mate!

 

[Nicolai Nicholson]

Yes, thanks a lot Daniel

 

[Valerio Vinassa]

I vote for first (only) forecast seems much more real like in rl only the race day you know the weather, for us the race day (hour) we will know the truth

Thanks Daniel

For me it's all good...Daniel keep it up, last season we have good weather's.

Edit: "next weather's"

 

[Reik Major]

Yeah would be great if Daniel likes to support us again. Since he's got so much experience in supporting us with weather, I'd leave it completly to him how to do that (if he likes to at all).

I could also understand if Daniel doesn't have the time to do the job anymore. I'm very grateful how he supported us with weather so far.
