Session Times ;
Current Weather Forecast;
Sainz out means Red Bull are confirmed as constructors winners?
Nope. Plus as things stand looks like we won't get any points at all...
😁
I think Sky (except Karun) are being a bit harsh on Gasly - a driver is always going to drive as fast a possible to get back up to the back of the pack. His team didn't give him any warning about a tractor on track - probably they didn't know about it at that stage.
A difficult situation all round and thankfully Gasly didn't have a nasty accident.
Moving on from the tractor, this is getting depressing - we're not going to get much of a race are we? Lucky to get even the 2 laps not behind a safety car. Sucks but what can you do if the rain doesn't let up. Much respect to the fans in the grandstand.
They need to just let the drivers race or just call the race off now and let everyone go home. It's obvious they aren't going to get 37 laps in to give the drivers full points so no point dragging this on
Andreas Seidl seems to think we won’t get any racing.
Joke that this is allowed to happen. Races should be moved to Monday if this happens. Scrapping it altogether is ridiculous.
This one is going to be an interesting meeting
Seidl sounds pretty sure that we won’t get a race today.
Safety has to be a priority, but it seems ridiculous that there can be nothing proactive done to try and get a race going - surely just looking at the track get wetter and hoping that it just gets better is the worst thing you can do.
If he was driving at 250kmh under red flag then it's a slam dunk penalty. The tractor shouldn't have been in track in those conditions but there's no excuse for driving at that speed under red flag especially in those conditions.
Or just start the race earlier if the forecast shows this kind of weather
I very much doubt there will be a race Today, the rain is not letting up and the issue soon will be the levels of light.
Ok so he'll be in trouble if he was going those speeds after the scene of the incident. But still, FIA need to cop the fook on and mention they are also looking into the presence of the tractor (or maybe I missed that??). Jenson speaking sense as usual.
Looking at the radar there's no sign of the rain easing up.
Getting hard to stay awake now and listening to Craig Slater aint helping.
Fair.
Yup 4 races after this, not 3. Forgot about Mexico
I feel sorry for people who set alarms to get up today.
....
The misses wasn't impressed but she's used to it now. 😂
So we have just over 1 hr left before time runs out, maybe we might get a handful of laps in?
Jesus!
Yeah it’s a bit much that they’re willing to stick the boot into Gasly without acknowledging their own f*ck up.
No doubt they’ll try to blame the tractor on the marshalls in the area as well.
They will be rewarded in the next life!
I can understand when there is a race the next weekend but they should really have a contingency to race the next day for situations like this - particularly when you schedule a race in a country with its heaviest month of rain.
Racing resumes in 10 minutes
Bring it on!
10 minute warning 🚨
Good to get a restart hopefully... 45min race
How many laps will we get? 20ish?
Thank you… your support is much appreciated and I want to give special thanks my team for standing by me during this time and all the fans who got up aswell, and also my blessings to those who turned up to see me make tea at 5:50am and watch rain! #blessed #weriseagain
Wow - that's some Tom Pryce stuff. Overall it's a **** situation that should never have happened - I really hope F1 learns from it and makes sure it doesn't happen again
Completely missed Mick going from 15th to 10th
Conditions definitely looking better, fingers crossed no issues
