Track too wet... they really need to develop something for these conditions. Something like a tyre perhaps

Well the rain saved me.
Power just came back and I'm happy to see I dint miss the start after all.

Ferrari to start on slicks /s

Bernie? No man.
Charlie.

Bernie.

Bernie was never race director.

Bernie ran the show. Many drivers have stories about him telling drivers to get in the car and race regardless of conditions.

Yes, Jules Bianchi comes to mind.

Ecclestone is a knob who thinks Putin is a hero and the sport doesn't need young fans.

Not sure how that is relevant. They have wet tires and I’m sure they can race at appropriate speed matching the conditions.

I'm just imagining Guenther giving one of his drivers a bit of this. But in seriousness, this is shocking.

[Speedster]

Any info on the RBR cost cap debate? Anything concrete?

All just rumour and speculation at the moment.

Unrelated to the topic.

Gees, conditions are tough. I expect carnage at the start of the race.

 

[1337]

Track looks dry now

 

[Naks]

Main concert area now.

Last night already people were ankle deep in mud

 

[1337]

Cannot imagine what its like to race under those conditions. Even with AC everywhere I suffered there

And now the post rain humidity... fok

 

[quovadis]

That's irrelevant to the Bernie discussion too.

I’m not discussing the merit of Bernie just the feeling of many that wet conditions isn’t an excuse to delay a race as was the case during Bernie’s tenure.

A few laps behind the safety car and a rolling start would be more effective than hours of guys with brooms.
