[Stop It]

He had the throttle pinned through the last curve and past the kink onto the start finish straight all one handed, since his other was on the f-duct the entire time.

That just makes it all the more insane.

Anyway, if that weather prediction is right (And frankly, we've seen the rain alarm before and all of a sudden it seems to avoid raceday...Suzuka...) we're in for one hell of a race.

Well, the alarm is set, the rain dance is being prepared and the Jenson Button shirt is on standby. If this is to be his race, rain is going to be his best hope.

[anonnumber6]

When is rain expected for the race?

 

[navanman]

When is rain expected for the race?

Its raining very heavy right now so the track has been washed clean again, no racing line, and its expected to rain all day tomorrow, up till race start.

JamesAllen:
It's midnight in Mokpo, Korea and it's raining pretty hard. This will wash the rubber off the track and make the race v interesting

Adam Cooper
Rain is coming down hard in Korea. And it may stay that way all through tomorrow...

Ruins my hope of Alonso getting past Webber off the grid. Is the race in danger of being postponed/red flagged?

That would be sad. All the debate about whether or not they would be able to have the Korean GP in the first place and then mother nature steps in and prevents it from going on or severely limits it.

 

[Dilly]

Track is good enough to start the race but damp enough to make it all very interesting.

 

[CurlySaysX]

Seems to be raining.
Everyone going off on the first corner.

 

[Lucius86]

I should not be up at this time what am I doing.....

CARS ARE FLYING OFF!! HELL YEAH!

 

[Chris R]

Going to be one hell of a race. Shame it will be not too busy of a thread if last race is anything to go by

SC start or let them have at it?

Spoiler

LET THEM HAVE AT IT!

Oh and the grid girls are damn hot :lol

They sure are.

Meh, race delayed, sound a little drastic to me.

 

[navanman]

Now this is rain! Start delayed by 10 minutes.
Anyone can win this race but Hamiltin must be delighted.

 

[S. L.]

The racing fan says let them go, the Webber fan says safety car.

 

[Kurosaki Ichigo]

Start behind the Safety car?

What a shame. Hand the Red Bull the victory already.

Next time if they are going to fuck up the race, sync my watch to wake me up 2 hours later so I don't see this fucking piece of shit of a competition.

 

[navanman]

Safety car start, BORING!!!!!

 

[S. L.]

SC start

 

[Chris R]

The racing fan says let them go, the Webber fan says safety car.

Starting behind SC so all the Webber fans should be happy. Damn I wanted to see him get shunted off at T1 and finish dead last

 

[Juicy Bob]

I think that's a silly idea, when the race starts people will be going through the last corner when the lights go out.

 

[Britprog]

Well pissed horner had a chat whiting I guess!!!

 

[John_B]

Bullshit. RBR shitty starters. Alonso and Hamilton's biggest chances of overtaking RBR was just taken away from them. The most exciting start in the whole season and it will be a pussy start.

 

[Adamm]

I coulda spent an extra 10 minutes in bed

 

[Kurosaki Ichigo]

I coulda spent an extra 2 hours in bed

Ha Ha.... still could be classic, long way to go still!!!

 

[Shaneus]

Pretty happy! Obviously not the most entertaining way to start a race, but the best for Webber given his shit starts and being on the dirty side of the track. Hoping that Vettel is shit in the wet and spins out so he can give Webber another victory.

Fingers crossed.

 

[navanman]

The brand new Tarmac isn't soaking up the water with the oil I mentioned earlier.

 

[Dead Man]

Bloody hell. Still plenty of time for a great race, especially with a new, wet track. Don't give up yet.

 

[Kurosaki Ichigo]

Freaking pussified formula one, they are so going to delay the race or something, I'm seeing it.

 

[CurlySaysX]

Button having a little cry...
Kobayashi will overtake at least 4 cars as soon as the SC goes in.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Actually, maybe the FIA made the right decision after all. The spray down the straight to T3 is insane!

 

[Chris R]

Probably going to have at least 5+ laps of SC :| Let them race and throw a red flag if everyone starts to crash

 

[S. L.]

looks like a swimming pool

 

[Dilly]

FUUUUUUU

 

[Shaneus]

So, are there points given under a red flag should that happen?

Edit: Red flag doesn't mean what I think it means. Race over or what?

 

[navanman]

looks like a swimming pool

Red flag. FUCK YOU!!

I GOT UP FOR THIS!!

 

[Kurosaki Ichigo]

Red flag....


I'm so not going to wake up for this pussified farce any more.

 

[Dead Man]

Probably going to have at least 5+ laps of SC :| Let them race and throw a red flag if everyone starts to crash

There's your red flag.

 

[Mobius 1]

It's like watching real life Hydro Thunder.

Edit - Red flag >:-( If Senna was alive he'd be teaching these cry babies a lesson.

 

[Chris R]

So, are there points given under a red flag should that happen?

No, race didn't go long enough. If it reaches a certain point (50%?), half points are handed out.

edit: NEVERMIND THIS IS FALSE INFO!!!

 

[Adamm]

Sigh...

 

[S. L.]

No, race didn't go long enough. If it reaches a certain point (50%?), half points are handed out.

after 3 laps it's half points :lol
after 75% its all points i think

 

[Harry_Tequila]

I'm so glad I got up at 6 in the morning to watch the race get red flagged. This is a disaster of epic proportions for the Korean GP.

Don't know what they're going to do now, can't see this race happening at all.

Time to get the drivers on a big multiplayer game of F1 2010.

 

[Shaneus]

Ah, cool. So they just sit there until it's deemed okay to start?

 

[navanman]

Maybe we can have a real start the next start.

 

[S. L.]

RBR says less rain in 10min
