Have you been believing it so far?

We're owed a big rain dump during green conditions tbf, would be apt if it was the way the race ended :whistling:

Of course I haven't. It's lied to us all day.

Pretty good racing right now though.

Yeah it's picked up a bit for the last run to the flag hasn't it? :8:

Yeah it's taken a while to get there, but it's been great since the end of the last FCY

Well, we should go green before they piss away 20 mins...

Certainly potential for some more spice.

We called it a day, first time I go home before the finish. Too wet, and too many interuptions to convince us to stay.

These FCYs seem unnecessarily long, too. They showed the car getting going again a few minutes ago

Feels like this is teeing up a brilliant bit of action right at your seat for the last 10 mins lol

I'm beginning to fear that Freitas will be worse than Masi in F1, at least in terms of willingness to interrupt the race. Imagine him in F1 with 1990s or early 2000s reliability: we would have 8 to 12 safety car periods per race.

That would happen under anyone. FIA won't let them leave cars parked at the side of the track like they used to.

They would have to come up with another system if we started having ~10 stopped cars per race. Any series would start losing viewers if there's only 5% of green racing. I don't know how to solve the issue, slow-zones, remote cranes, helicopters with huge magnets...
