    Not sure they would be allowed as the car was recovered by marshals, I'm sure there's something in the regulations for that. When Max had his off he made it to the grid and they were able to make repairs

    Hopefully Martin brundle didn’t tempt faith mentioning the medical helicopter.

    The redbull lads have got it Perez's car back to the pits and look to be working at it with some speed,

    maybe they might get him into the race - if we get one.

    I understand being safe but is the rain going to ease off anytime soon ? If it’s not then is delaying the start going to make much difference.

    Assumption the delay is due to the medical helicopter not being able to fly.

    So mclaren are telling Danny ric that it’s going to keep raining and get heavier so the race director needs to make a call because it’s not getting better.

    What happens if the race is called off for results? Are points issued or does nobody get anything?

    Is there any way we can blame Hamilton for the rain?

    I think this is looking less likely we'll have a race at all, looks like they're expecting it to get heavier

    Well that was a waste of 25 minutes, expect more waste of time circulating behind the safety car before they are pulled in

    If it’s like this now where it looks manky for the drivers and it’s supposed to get worse this could be a mess.

    This is going to be a disaster of a race. There's no way we'll get a full 44 laps surely.

    Plenty of complaints of poor visibility, sliding about on full wets, heavier rain due.

    Can't see there being a race.

    If Max gets penalised for leaving extra room for the safety car I swear to god.

    max is saying it’s good to race but he’s at the front but even Lewis is saying it’s messy.

    I can only presume worse weather is due later in the afternoon to explain why the are exploring racing now. Otherwise are we looking at racing tomorrow?

    He won't be saying that when he catches up on the back row.
