Remember when Ocon T-Boned Raikkonen's Ferrari and had a massive accident?
It could easily have happened and I do not want to see another chance of it.
We've got over two hours left, plenty of time yet. Rain is easing off, so wait a little bit longer and it'll be safer.

Yeah, but he also said "Kimi had a high speed accident and what happend? Nothing. The cars are safe" which is ridiculous itself in those conditions. We just saw how close F1 avoided a catastrophe there.

I just want it to stop raining.
I'd rather not see them start again and have another crash on the very first lap. But it's frustrating that nothing is happening. Fully realizing the futility of that feeling, but there it is.
Either way, there is still time to finish the race. But it's a close thing.

Brazil had been the second race after Melbourne for like a Decade.
Then they decided to move it all across the calendar to the end...

Charlie doesn't want to restart the race, because Vettel's down the order. Indirect karma for telling him to "🤬 off.$
(At least I think he's down the order. I just turned the race on.)

The person who I feel for the most from this is the FIA PR spokesperson. How on earth are they gonna explain this

Aren't we supposed to get heavier rain in 10 minutes? or are they sending them out cause why not?
Eric Boullier speaking complete sense for a change. You can't let cars race on this track in those conditions. I'm with you guys most of the time on getting racing in the rain but this is a unique track, that pit straight area wasn't safe.
Pretty simple - "It wasn't safe to race, look at the cars aquaplaning off and coming close to catastrophic accidents"
I don't see the big deal.

Because when other sports wouldn't race in these conditions F1 always would. It's not a question of weather conditions as much as it's the tires aren't good. Other tires in these conditions could race. That's a big part of it. Also like I said (and Niki Lauda agrees with me) that the cars are safe. Just race and have at it. There's always luck involved with this sport. This time it's greater than usual. Which makes it, guess what? more exciting!

I figured out why it's raining!
Personally I don't find the possibility of cars being T-Boned or crashing head because of poor visibility exciting.
Yes, Kimi's accident ended up pretty safe as it turned out but it could have easily been much worse, so could Vettel's.
What have we lost? An hour or so of time. I'd rather that than a driver's life.

I agree, Raikonnen got really lucky there - it's still a bit ridiculous they aren't racing, maybe the tires are really bad...
Restart at 16.02
