So there's rain around at Silverstone, but that will hopefully clear by the time qualifying starts at 13:00 BST.
Final practice at 10:00 BST is most likely to be affected.

BBC Sport at SilverstoneWelcome to the great British summer! It's dull, overcast and windy at Silverstone and as I type a shower has just fallen. This could be the theme for the rest of the morning as fans slowly arrive at the circuit ahead of final practice.
The weather hasn't dampened the mood of the spectators here with some having arrived very early with fold up chairs to pinch a favourable spot by the track.

With practice at 10:00 BST, it looks like it'll be a tad soggy at Silverstone.

It's either Brits abroad, or Brits at Silverstone.
Either way - it's magnificent.
