I miss the old days of chaos in rainy races, 1998 Belgian GP is unforgettable. i miss those days too, today they care too much about this, and dont let drivers show their true skill driving. | ||

A bit sad that we get a race like this, 25 laps with almost no action  | ||

I think it's easy to say this as a spectator but from a stewards point of view, you need to be proactive rather than reactive and they had no way of knowing exactly how the first lap was going to go (though it doesn't take much imagination) Drivers have said that the clutch part was that they simply couldn't see anything and in a scenario like this, drivers safety is paramount. As a spectator, I'm a bit gutted as well but it's a legit argument. | ||

If the tyres are not aquaplaning its fine. They are the best of the best, they can deal with it. | ||
