get that fucking safety car in!

 

[brotkasten]

ERS is the biggest issue for them.

It's always been. Look at the technical report, you can see that the teams with Ferrari's PU are the first one to take the engine penalty.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Yeah, I agree with the Safety Car up to lap 6. But now we should've gotten going.

 

[Juz]

Let's go guys.

 

[RoKKeR]

Sounds like all of the drivers want to go.

 

[Aiii]

Hamilton talking straight to Charlie Whiting haha.

 

[duckroll]

Lol, Hamilton is begging for the race to start. I think he speaks for us all.

 

[hamchan]

Haha Hamilton even talking straight to Charlie Whiting to just start this race. C'mon already!!!

 

[Mokubba]

LOL at Lewis speaking directly to Charlie.

 

[cmr-94]

this is fucking ridiculous. and it happens every time

 

[kharma45]

Hamilton gagging to get going.

 

[Deadman]

Remember when we used to have wet races? That's was fun.

 

[aspiegamer]

lol @ the field tailgating the safety car

 

[Dead Man]

Ham is talking sense, Charlie should pay attention.

 

[Draconian]

Bring the freaking safety car in already. We're not going to get near lap 40 if we don't start soon.

 

[Addnan]

This is the driest we will get it. Give me few laps of racing for waking up on a Sunday...

 

[McNum]

He came within 3 points of winning the title twice with Ferrari. Had he got at least one I wonder how we'd view his time at Ferrari.

In Formula One, second place is the first loser when it comes to championships. Probably not fair to say it like this, but you are right. Had Alonso gotten a championship in the Ferrari, he'd been hailed as the guy who made a car perform better than theoretically possible and won despite the odds.

Now he's just the guy who got really close.

 

[Chris R]

TURN them loose already!

 

[Aiii]

Charlie Whiting is getting too old for this shit, scared like an 80 year old driving their Fiat Panda through town at 15kph.

 

[brotkasten]

Charlie is waiting for the rain to start again, so we'd get a more exciting race. It's all part of the plan!

 

[Mohonky]

They always do this, they have the cars out there till drivers are thinking its basically inters conditions.

 

[kharma45]

Remember when we used to have wet races? That's was fun.

Yeah we've raced in worse than this.

Need to get going and give the people who've paid in a show.

 

[ramparter]

this is fucking ridiculous. and it happens every time

Fia has a thing for the ridiculous. Instead of all this stupid they could invst a bit in visors or something for a better view in these conditions. I think the biggest problems is the visibility. If they allowed the teams to do specific set ups in those conditions and the drivers were able to view the other cars the could race 'all right'

 

[Dead Man]

this is fucking ridiculous. and it happens every time

Yep. Wet enough to need full wets means it will be too wet to race so often, it's stupid.

 

[Zeknurn]

Remember when we used to have wet races? That's was fun.

Indeed. If they can't race in the rain they should just cancel the whole weekend ahead of time if the weather forecast has any hint of rain. Also start doing more races in Abu Dhabi and Bahrain where it never rains.

 

[cmr-94]

so formula 1 complains about making a better show..

 

[stryke]

What a joke

 

[Chris R]

Charlie is worse than Bernie. There, I said it.

 

[hamchan]

Really? Another lap behind SC? If teams are thinking of putting inters on then Charlie has fucked up.

Edit: Farking finally

 

[dakun]

What Charlie is doing is a disgrace to the sport. The fans, the drivers, everyone wants to drive and one fucking man is boycotting it

 

[CurlySaysX]

Let's get racing!

 

[Salacious Crumb]

Jesus about time.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Oh come on! This is stupid! I agree with the start under SC and the Red Flag, but it's been safe enough to race for a good few laps now.

Oh, finally!

 

[Aiii]

Finally coming in, about fucking time!

 

[duckroll]

FINALLY. Let's see how long this will last.

 

[DrM]

It's always been. Look at the technical report, you can see that the teams with Ferrari's PU are the first one to take the engine penalty.

I wonder what will they do about this for 2015. With new engine design it could be quite rocky...

 

[Mokubba]

People are actually talking about inters.

What a joke.

 

[aspiegamer]

IN THIS LAP!

Area around the pits looks a little too wet for inters.

 

[kharma45]

Finally Charlie. This should've happened to laps ago.

 

[McNum]

And now the commentators have begun timing the Safety Car. It actually just had fastest lap just now. 2:22:03!

Come on. Start the race already!

EDIT: And here we go!

 

[ramparter]

lol just in time to watch one lap, hope there are a few before rain starts again so theres something to watch later.

 

[RoKKeR]

People talking about inters... holy crap. It still looks damn wet. I'm with RIC, I'll stick to the extremes.

 

[kharma45]

People are actually talking about inters.

What a joke.

I almost feel now we've been robbed of the tricky conditions and seeing the drivers be challenged.

 

[Cyborgmatt]

 

[brotkasten]

Hamilton is tailing Rosberg as close as possible. It looks great.

 

[Draconian]

People going for inters right now are insane.

 

[CurlySaysX]

Massa is a little frightened.

 

[RoKKeR]

THAT SPRAY. Unreal. And people are in for inters. Ha.

 

[duckroll]

Hamilton is looking super hungry. Hope he bites Rosberg in the ass.

 

[Tubie]

This is scary as fuck!!
