Another delay. Surely they're gonna run out of daylight soon?

The return of 'for sure' ... Looks like another season of drinking games.

I just thought the same thing!

Wet tyres don't stop F1 cars floating unfortunately.

Never used to stop them. Although Prost used to complain like a little girl.

I still miss the old tyre rules.

I best get out of bed now then and start washing up, then feed the cat and the little boy.

I feel sorry for the people who still get told to wave the yellow flags, even though nothing is happening on track

Shimmy · 16 Mar 2013 at 07:10

FIA are going to be cutting it fine with regards to light.

Guerrilla · 16 Mar 2013 at 07:11

Didn't realise they had changed the camera colours.

Least I had time to make a bacon butty!

Older cars didn't use to have a surf board under them running 1mm above the ground.

As soon as you get any significant standing water it acts like a hull and steering is futile.

I think Q3 may happen later this afternoon at this rate

413x · 16 Mar 2013 at 07:14

Might have to give up watching, it's getting to late

Tenzo · 16 Mar 2013 at 07:14

Why delay it again

I've already had 2 bacon and egg toasted sarnies, with chilli sauce *

Tempted to break out the curly-wurlys now.

Meanie! Although if someone could bring me a French stick. . . .

Why are they bothering to hairdryer the track if its gonna rain again?

Oh and if I wasn't awake before, I am now. Both cats just came in from outside in the rain and plonked themselves on the bed

Stumble Bum · 16 Mar 2013 at 07:15

Bored now.....

I meant UK time, after all the drivers have had a nice little sleep.
