Frustrating to waste so much time when the track is ready for racing. If some cars are incapable of operating in the rain then let them retire!

    The lack of explanation for the delay is frustrating.

    Glad to hear the racing resumes in 10 minutes.

    Disaster for the slicks. Mercs made out like bandits with that start.

    Ferrari somehow always gets the strategy wrong..

    Did they forget that half the field needs to make an extra formation lap? Pit lane order looks wrong for it.

    As much as it was a disaster start on slicks for Ferrari, Hamilton has been on a charge to get back to the front. Podium possible?

    Barring Monaco, I think this race might be a contender for the worst race in recent years. Red flag Spa might still have it beat though.
