Poll: Belgian Grand Prix 2021, Spa-Francorchamps - Race 12

[Flibster]

Brundle sums it up. "What a miserable day"

 

[chrismscotland]

Shut up Crofty

 

[CaptainRAVE]

No refund guys, we had a race. Ridiculous.

 

[Flibster]

They need to extend the "required for points" to a third race distance and add a requirement that they have a minimum number of racing laps. Cancel the race rather than have nonsense like this.

Hopefully the new aero makes them more able to run in the rain next year.

You don't think that they'd be happy to run 15 laps behind the safety car?

that's what I think they've done the 2 laps for.

 

[Mr Jack]

Hence the requirement for a minimum number of actual racing laps. This wasn't a race, it shouldn''t award points.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Poll added.

Why not a full poll, or at best a half poll, we had a ‘race’

Edit: ‘half race’

 

[mmj_uk]

In the future just have qualifying and then on race day follow the safety around for 2 laps for classification, I'm sure you'll all agree that having an actual race is risking drivers lives.

Totally agree with this; complete and total joke; no racing should mean no points/winner, etc

 

[Flibster]

Radar looks like nothing's going to happen. Call it now Masi... Rather than having us wait around for another 40 minutes.

 

[Bazzards]

I don't know what it is but mazaspin reminds me of matt lucas.

 

[GravyMonster]

It's looking like it's going to be the exact same weather at Zandvoort next week too. The summer in northern Europe this year has been horrendous.

 

[Flibster]

They need 10 minutes warning for a restart, then 3:30 for a lap...

So really if anything is going to happen needs to happen in the next 15 minutes.

 

[Feek]

Even my Sky box just turned itself off due to boredom.

 

[Malt_Vinegar]

Hmm, I can see a situation here where we will have no race today...

So technically we had a race.. Damn, I was wrong

Do we get a podium?!

Could well be worse as the increased under body aero will pull even more water up from the track.

Will do once its confirmed

 

[MooMoo444]

A podium ceremony would just cap off this farce.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Can you imagine the podium ‘celebration’. What an anticlimax that would be. Poor George.

 

[Mr Jack]

It has. The forecast is clear for Zandvoort next weekend though and, in any case, it's flat and coastal there so unlikely to suffer the same difficulties.
