Do the greatest drivers in the world not know how to drive in the rain? Is there not a full wet tire?

But the wet tyres are too slow and we can't have that.

Hence why they stick inters on then complain its dangerous if it gets any wetter. The Ocon strategy was dumb because if it got wet enough to need them it's obvious they'd throw the reds.
 
The problem is that they don't have a good answer for visibility in the wet. They did test a solution earlier this year to reduce spray, but unfortunately it didn't work. Of course, they should just stop being cowards and if they're too scared to race just pull into the pits voluntarily, but a couple of rich-kids end up getting t-boned to death and it becomes a major problem.

I knew as soon as they were talking about it being heavier than at the start it was a guaranteed red because muh wet weather tyres.

And now the commentators defend the cuck out.

Was it Horner calling the wets a "survival tyre."

Can’t wait for the most boneheaded restart method, who’s ready for Stroll to eliminate a quarter of the remaining field?

IIRC the main rationale for this raincuckery is actually related to the medical helicopter not being able to take off in very bad weather.

I think most people misunderstand this rule.

You don't need it if an FIA approved major trauma center is within 20 minutes by road or there is an avaliable landing spot for a medihelicopter within 3km of the circuit.

Mandating full wets for a rolling start is one of the stupidest ideas. Because first lap around everyone ducks into the pits for inters.

The race director changed the rule for this event saying they could do inters for a rolling start because of how narrow the pit lane is and how dangerous 20 cars heading in at once would be.
 
Not sure how Piastri damaged Leclerc’s underside, seems like blame shifting because I still think it was the gravel since Piastri just ate part of the front wing.
 
I've come up with a solution to the "We can't ever test wets" problem. Fuck Bahrain and fuck the Spanish, testing is now held in Miami. We've got a shitty parking lot track let's use it. They get to have an extra prestigious event at an expensive venue, and there's good chance of biblical downpours for testing.

Also tell them that they will go out in the Miami rain instead of waiting in the garage like cucks.
 
The Gasly speeding was by 0.1 kmph

If you are wondering about the Lawson penalty for impeding since we never saw a replay or got told anything about it.

They double stacked him behind Tsunoda which blocked the Haas garage, Tsunoda's stop was slow so Lawson being there meant Magnussen couldn't exit his pit box. So not Lawson's fault.

Interesting they're mandating inters.
 
And we gonna race again. Let's see how this will end. I somehow expect the Mercs to fall down at fiurst because they can't warm their tyres while the Mclarens might go up a bit
