We don't even need to go that far. I mean, if the V8s can run in these conditions on that pathetic excuse of a Dunlop wet tyre, than these guys should have no problems with what they have at their disposal :P

Suggestion for the FIA: Remember that the wet tyres are supposed to be used in the wet. That's why they're called wet tyres.

Frther delay. That's ridiculous. We don't even need wet tyres if they never start a session in the wet.

Finally! Of course, they'll probably have to end up doing Q3 tomorrow morning because a certain short old fart decided 5PM is a good time to hold a race.
