FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX DU CANADA 2011: RACE *** SPOILERS ***

Again agreed, it really does seem that way, and MS did put him out to dry, I really don't know how he is going to be able to deal with this if this is the case and carries on.

He can be his own worst enemy in times like this.

 

Well, technically the clock IS still running. However the length of the suspension gets added to the 2 hour limit. Per the regs

41.4 Whilst the race is suspended :
- neither the race nor the timekeeping system will stop, however, in accordance with Article 5.3 the length of the race suspension will be added to the maximum two hour period ;

 

Can anybody answer how Massa and Vettel are in the top-3 after pitting after the SC was deployed? There was already a line formed and they were barely impacted?

I thought there was some discussion by Rob Smedley about the grid order being mixed up.

 

They might as well have started at two and save us all grief

 

Thanks again!

 

i thought the rain would bring some fun

nearly 3am here, i need some sleep

 

It has to do with when the leaders are caught by the safety car. If they haven't met the safety car yet, they can pit and the safety car has to wait for them. All very confusing...

 

That was my understanding too.

However, IIRC, the "official" clock (at the top of the screen) did indeed stop at Monaco last time out - That surprised me given the reg....

Cheers,

I really hope during the off season, the FIA make it mandatory for circuits to have proper drainage systems. The rain isn't actually holding up the race, but the standing water is.

 

Didn't MS last dominate a season in 2004? You've held onto a seven year grudge? And how does hating/bashing Hamilton and the FIA for their favortism of Hamilton make up for your feelings being hurt 7+ years ago. I'm missing the connecting between people complaining about MS dominating and your hatred for Hamilton. Again, you sound like a scorned chick.

Do u guys think the situation is getting any better? I just hope they don't call off the race...

 

Another 20 mins of this down pour

 

Please do not double post Mark.

 

When do they lose the light?

 

Which means it should end at 3 am my time. Damn...

I can't even recall if there was ever so much of rain at the Canadian GP. Last wet race i can remember is 2000.

 

No danger about that, as to the TV commentators.

 

FINE!!!

 

The same people who enjoy Hamilton's crazy moronic driving are those that complained against Ferrari and it's winning ways.

When they made a fuss... it was fine because Michael and Ferrari are not British. But since Mclaren is British and Lewis is British... a colored one at that... it is not acceptable!

 

If Fox stops broadcasting I am assuming I can get the race on Satellite Radio and use live timing.
