Clearly safety car/red flag conditions now but they should have started the race on time.

And then red flag it after a few laps?

Start the race, get a dry line going, then see how the conditions are when the next wave of rain hits.

They've achieved nothing through this course of action.

Are you counting this as a red flag?

Not counting this red flag as the race hasn't started. We'll do it for stoppages after the racing has actually started.

@Tommy why the facepalm? They could have started the race on time when it was drizzling and the track was barely damp, have them race in difficult conditions for about 20 minutes, and then red flag it if necessary. Instead, they delayed it for no reason, and will now restart once the rain stops, and then you'll have a single dry racing line on track, and even less overtaking possibilities as a result.

What facepalm? :ph34r:

Barely spitting now. The water isn't going to clear itself. Get out there. This is an absolute embarrassment.

These are the best drivers in the world. Why do they insist on safety car and red flagging sessions whenever the track is extremely wet and what's the point in having extreme wet tyres if that's what's going to happen.

My thoughts too. 

None of the teams or drivers look in a hurry to start. Race director probably in the same position...
