It's really not that bad (the amount of rain, that is).

In heavy rain I kinda get why a SC start but it isn't that wet so I see no reason for a SC start.

Its not even raining anymore.

That's why I hope it'd rain in every single race. At some point they would get fed up starting race always behind SC.

Just get the rule in with an extra formation lap in wet conditions and then start it without Safety Car.

Soon they can bring explanation - drivers don't have experience of standing start in very wet conditions.

Lol at GP2 live timing: "The race will start behind the safety car due to torrential rain"
I think they mean ""The race will start behind the safety car due to light rain or actually no rain at all".

With the delay and the sc laps it'll only be a few laps until slicks let alone intermediates

"SC start due to spit on track"

The mandatory pit stop is going to be from wets to slicks I think.

The face of Bernd Mayländer in the Safety Car looked like "What the f*ck am I doing here??"
