2021 Formula One Season: Championship Decider Abu Dhabi - Verstappen Wins in a Controversial Race! 🏆 🍾

[FR0GGY]

seems utterly pointless to go out and do a couple of laps under safety car to classify the race.
Positions won’t chance, why not just give them the points in the order they are.

How long has the maximum time for a GP been 3 hours? I thought it was still 4 hours (although I'll admit that its been years since I've thought about that rule)

this season. was made 4 hours after the 2011 canadian gp

Come on, let’s go racing.

Brundle says hes raced in worse conditions and i agree. Get them out there. Drive to conditions. If that means crawling around so be it.

 

[DamoESP]

RBR finally have a bit of luck go slightly their way, and the Sky commentators can’t fathom it

This race being called off could be the most George Russell thing to ever happen to George Russell

i reckon. Bloke seems cursed.

i think there might be some rule clarifications come monday morning

 

[Clubs are trumps]

70 minutes for the rain to stop or race is called off. Gotta feel for the fans who paid up.

 

[DamoESP]

Let’s at least get classified. Make this whole weekend worthwhile at least

 

[Supersuns]

My favourite race weekend of the season slipping away

 

[DamoESP]

So with half points….HAM profits again since the points gap between 1st and 3rd is less than normal.

#blessed

They should have just started on time when it wasnt raining that bad. The 10 then the further 15 minute delay wasnt neccessary

 

[BigTacoBandit]

Would they come back to Spa in that TBC slot at the end of the year between Brazil and SA or is it too far away?

 

[DamoESP]

Honestly they should have tried to do a few laps behind the safety car already, see if it clears some of the standing water.

They’ve let it go on too much now that it’s become a joke.

Is there not talk of racing tomorrow?

Lol so they stopped the 3 hour clock

Suppose that means they are trying to make sure we get some racing in tonight

 

[royboy2]

Same Lando, same

 

[Magma]

so now the clock has stopped with 1 hour left. looks like they have overruled their own regulations

what an absolute cluster**** this has been

 

[DamoESP]

The medical car is hurling it around the track and haven’t really seen it lose traction at all. Get on with it

 

[mouncey2franklin]

I saw this on reddit:

So today they've managed to start a race without starting a race, un-retire a car that has been retired and have now seemingly mastered stopping time.
Next they're just gonna announce the results as psychically foreseen by Masi or something.

Lol.

 

[nobbyiscool]

Spa needs a friggen roof.

Running 2 laps to artificially classify it, which then artificially impacts the world championship, would be total shit.

I saw it lose traction a couple of times, but you are right, he was flying.

Start the race, boys.

Professionals in the best tech money can buy.

If a couple of cars fly off the track, that's what the barriers are for.

It's racing ffs.

 

[Magma]

how many laps is the medical car up on the rest of the field

 

[DamoESP]

What’s the use of lugging those full wet tyres around if they are never going to use them because they displace too much water? Just save the freight and don’t bother with them anymore if they will never race with them.
