MAX : I can't wait to race in the dark and in the rain ...
The car is also faster in the colder night temps.

Honestly, that sounds pretty scary to me in the Green Hell (!)

Nothing seems to scare MAX, I would think twice about going on the Green Hell during the day in perfect weather and it just goes to show racers are a completely different breed to joe public

^^ The situation at the Nurburgring is that MAX has caused tickets to be sold out before even arriving there and the organisers are warning fans not to turn up on Saturday without tickets as they will be turned away.
The weather predictions for there are of a possible 'White Hell' at night with near freezing 1-2C and patchy fog with damp for the 20km track, a cold front is creeping into the Eiffel region, just what MAX wants.

It's Q1 and MAX 3 car is quickest with the Rowe BMW's 2 and 3rd, no sign of Haase yet.

Just saw MAX onboard , MAX had to slow down because a car in front of him had hit the wall in the rain.
The medical car with flashing lights on , was at the scene of the crash...
