Does this mean more delays before Q2 to clean up all the debris? :/

Doubt it, there should be plenty of time

Why is gutierrez still sitting in his car?

 

[drifter444]

Seeing all this carbon makes me want to eat tortillas.

 

[Shaneus]

Just started pelting down as soon as Q1 finished. Expect delays, I reckon. Guaranteed.

 

[Hackbert]

shaneus should get some of the wing for his wall back home hehe.
Aaaand it is back to raining.. dammit. track was getting faster

 

[sammex]

Ugh more rain.

 

[Mastah]

Bravo Whiting, what an idiot. We would have full quali if he only started in on time.

 

[dubc35]

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

 

[Risgroo]

Maaan that rain...

 

[Adamm]

Delayed by 10 minutes

Is it always like that in Australia?

 

[lastplayed]

dat rain

 

[CurlySaysX]

shheeeitt!!! It's pissing down now.

 

[bobnowhere]

Ricciardo was lucky, there was no way he was going to make it round for an inter run.

And it's bucketing down!

 

[Wax Free Vanilla]

Another 10 min delay.

 

[Chris R]

Holy shit at the rain, more delays incoming.

What happens if they have to stop now? Is Qualifying over or will they attempt Q2/Q3 tomorrow?

 

[Hackbert]

stop the quali.. rosberg on pole would be fun ^^".
mhh 15 min. waterbreak..

 

[Salamndar]

Wet wet wet !

 

[Adamm]

Holy shit at the rain, more delays incoming.

Yeah, they've done that before. If this keeps up they are going to have to, it'll start getting dark soon

Cute little Wibba...

The Crowded House song Four Seasons in One Day was inspired by Melbourne.

I think they carry on tomorrow morning.

 

[bobnowhere]

Happy so far about my choice to pick Maldonado as most positions gained in the predictor. Of course he could easily chuck it off at any point tomorrow.

 

[CurlySaysX]

This is Melbourne. Sun will be out in 10 minutes no doubt.

Heh, picked the same.

 

[Shaneus]

Can't help but wonder where Petrov and Angry Heikki would've finished :/

PS. Rain seems to have stopped but track is still very wet. Should be swept clean by Q2 I'd say.

 

[Bagerk]

Last time I was in Melbourne some girl took me back to her hotel room and then only wanted to snuggle. Smellbourne continuing its trend of being a massive cock tease.

 

[Adamm]

Another 20 mins!!??

 

[Shaneus]

Fucking 6:30.

 

[lastplayed]

Another 20 minutes.

It's gonna be delayed till tomorrow isn't it.

 

[Risk Breaker]

Oh geez, 20 minutes delay I want my sleep back!

 

[Wax Free Vanilla]

20 more mins, wtf

 

[Dead Man]

Pasta impressed me with that short interview on local coverage. No whining, just saying they have to work harder.

Fucking 6:30.

Hows the light there at the moment?

Another 20 minutes.

It's gonna be delayed till tomorrow isn't it.

Yep.

 

[Shaneus]

I don't even know why. There's no rain that I can see and it looks like it'd clear after one or two laps. Nanny state.

 

[Hackbert]

ZzZZzzZ

 

[Risgroo]

Pimp glasses on Massa Sr.!

 

[Shaneus]

Hows the light there at the moment?

Plenty fine. Though f1 app just said that a heavy shower is imminent, hence delay. Not from what I can see, though :/
Could've started at 6pm and be finished by that "imminent" shower. Fuck's sake.

 

[Addnan]

Very tired now, trying to keep eyes open . Apparently they are waiting for a big shower to come down soon.

 

[Mastah]

I can only laugh at the reasons why quali is postponed according to Ted Kravitz. It's simply ridiculous, they see better weather on the radar, so they wait, and drivers are using kerbs, which are wet, so Whiting is scared, LOL.

 

[Sloane]

Would it be delayed to tomorrow or wouldn't they just take the Q1 result?

 

[Hammer24]

Some of these drivers look like they got their super license out of a vending machine, disgusting.

That's good. I think Whiting is just getting too conservative now. He's been a bit of a rain nanny for a while, but this is too much.

I think it's more the road paint that they're concerned with. Not that it makes it any better (still should've started) but I thinks the paint itself was the reason Massa went off.

 

[Hammer24]

Would it be delayed to tomorrow or wouldn't they just take the Q1 result?

Nope. Either they do Q2 and Q3 tomorrow morning, or they´d start according to the number on the car (Vet on pole).

 

[Bagerk]

Here is the radar for Melbourne for international folk BTW http://www.bom.gov.au/products/IDR023.loop.shtml

 

[Sloane]

Thanks. I don't like either option.

Or out of Bernie's arse, which doubles as a super license dispensing machine if enough million dollars are deposited.

 

[Lach]

Those guys are F1 drivers...I think the concept of avoiding kerbs and white lines in wet shouldn't be to complicated to them...as well as aquaplaning...

 

[Shaneus]

You mean, everyone in Caterham? I must say there are far more drivers that are only suited for bottom tier teams than other years, it seems. And that's including the fact we're one team down! (But PDLR wouldn't have been on that shitlist.

 

[Hammer24]

Yeah. Its the same for everyone, so let them drive. A couple of years ago noone would have given a flying *beep*.

 

[Septimius]

What's going on with british coverage, this year? Was BBC out of it? Only Sky? Also, if I were in nature, wanting to watch a small river, or stream if you want where I could see the heavens above, where should I go?
