Thanks guys. Several hours ago they showed a shot from above looking over the GP circuit and I was hoping it wasn't going to turn to fog but unfortunately it did.

PIT EXIT GOES GREEN 9.30! We might get a sprint race after all. 
EDIT: Information from the race management: The fog in the Grand Prix circuit area means that the teams can at least drive to the starting grid. The pit lane lights will be switched to green at 9:30 a.m. The next information on how to proceed will also follow at 9:30 a.m.

GP track is still thick with fog and Hatzenbach looks as foggy as it's ever been.
There is movement in the pitlane though...

Pity about the fog, though it took most people about half an hour to notice that the race had stopped 
I spent the latter part of the evening with these guys...
..amazingly friendly and hospitable - they not only gave me several beers, but also fed me with a plateful of freshly BBQ'd bratwurst, and a pasta side - at 1am!
These probably didn't help much though...
.. and yet, even at 2.30 am as I staggered back to my hotel, I found Bugatti's top secret environmentally friendly prototype...
It's just turning 9.30am here now, and I'm going back to the circuit for one last time. I woke up about 5 am with my backpack still on my back

Any chance you could take a pic or two from those Cupra intervention vehicles? Please?

Current standing is 1 lap before the race was red flagged, AUDI is in the lead.
All repairs/work on the cars are allowed, they can in principle be built up from new.
EDIT:
Mercedes driver wants to start the race under CODE 120(km) mostly to get the cars on track for the fans i guess..

The northloop is starting look drivable, judging from the feed. Hopefully they can get going soon.

I'm on the bus at Hatzenbach and the fog is still very bad, and it's pretty cold too - hope to see some racing but wouldn't be surprised if it stays red for a while...

Sadly, I'm about 30m from the track and I can barely see it.
