Have to give it a 9.

Starting under SC was a pathetic decision. Then doing several laps behind the SC at the restart was retarded. Why have a wet tyre if you're only going to let them go racing in intermediate conditions? This sport gets more pussified every year.

Rant over, the green flag racing was ace. And the finish was great.

5 - 10 years from now they won't drive at all in wet conditions. Eunuchs.

I was racking my brain too. Then a few seconds later I tried wiki, and voila

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

SC start
Firman/Panis crash
Schumacher crash
Button crash
Webber crash (then red flag after Alonso hit errant wheel from Webber's car and crashed)

Sunday night after the race I was racking my brain too and I figured those races out without wiki. ;)

Button. He must have been close to going a lap down after the incident with Alonso. Amazing comeback.

Just a reminder of times when they used to race in the wet at Montreal.



3:56 = win.

about the SC start, if they would implement this like they used to do now, we would have never seen Senna's fist lap at Donnington back in 1993.

There's a reason why so many drivers died in the 70's.

The Safety Car start was a overkill, yes, but the other SC shortly before the red was justified in my opinion. There wouldnt have been many drivers left after a lap in these conditions anyway.
