F1 2021 Round 12: Belgian Grand Prix

If you think the race goes ahead give this post a like. I’m very on the fence, feeling like it won’t - eager to hear what others think

Force Majeur sounds like a nice team name.

According to whoever on Sky the green light was the formation lap and not official start and when they can around it was a flashing amber light

I think if it wasn’t for Eau Rouge the race would be completed by now, but it’s a very dangerous part of track especially in wet weather so believe it’s the correct decision on safety grounds.

I really hope they either race later today (doubt it) or tomorrow because if they reschedule or cancel Russell will be the worst-off as I doubt they would run the race with the Qualy classification.

If its raining as it seems I don't think a few clearing trucks would clear up the track. If there was a race on somewhere where snow was coming down hard I doubt they be able to clear it either. Also what tyre do they start with. It may be a bit too dry for wets but not dry enough for the next. These cars are so overly engineered now it is not fair to compare then to the cars that were maybe more capable of running in very we weather

It’s because it’s the anniversary of his dad's first race in F1. And seeing as Michael Schumacher can’t be involved it makes sense to have his son mark the moment.

He was over the moon to see that car in the flesh as it were, and then to drive it - I'm presuming Sky organised it.

He won't get away from the fact that he is a Schumacher - the segment was about his dad though.

Anyways, i'm not going to complain when we see footage of any Jordan car.

I'll never complain about the Jordan 191 appearing

Looking at the weather radar I would think top of the hour there will be a possibility for 1 hour before the next blob of rain.

I'd say if there was a yacht near by Kimi would be gone home by now

I was at the Irish launch of the Jordan 191 as my Da worked for the 7up importer, always nice to see it running again.

That poster is a troll who replies to everything with aggressive insults, I wouldn’t waste your time replying to them.

The race leader agreed with what I said, the medical car driver has said the grip isn’t too bad, Martin Brundle is also of the opinion that they should have got running. Nobody disagreed that there was enough grip, simply that visibility was an issue - something that would have cleared up a lot after a few laps running and clearing the line, and which is avoidable if the drivers keep to a safe distance, as they have in many many wet races through history. As I type this Karyn Chandhok is saying the same thing about how it’s no wetter than other races they’ve run in.

At least they’ve made a sensible decision to suspend the silly three hour rule, even if that makes a mockery of the rule existing.
