Half the race is going to be safety car.

As long as it doesn't start behind one I'm fine. Got me some vidyagames to play during those moments.

 

[Tempy]

We're gonna hit the 2hr mark methinks.

Someone's gonna spin during the safety car formation laps.

 

[brotkasten]

Maybe not that often, but he tends to be somewhat risky during the starts and sometimes it doesn't go as planned, as RIC and VET can confirm.

And unless something weird happens, VET should have this race, because you cannot overtake here. Only two races haven't been won from pole and those were 2008 (crashgate) and 2012 (gearbox failure for Hamilton)

I guess a wet race in Singapore can be considered weird enough.

 

[Deadman]

Funny because brundle was saying yesterday he couldn't believe we never had a wet race in 10 years.

 

[Aiii]

Max’s rain dance worked, I guess.

 

[LoveCake]

For those in the UK, Sky are showing this for free on Sky Sports Mix channel 121. (I know it's on channel 4 also) depends if you want Martin Brundle or David Coulthard.

 

[Business]

Here's hoping rain is just enough until the start so Charlie doesn't shit the bed.

 

[Ruruja]

Putting all my money on it staying dry.

Whoops.

 

[Grug]

I have a feeling this race is going to deliver. Maybe not Baku levels but still...

Preach it Brother!

Also, Rain at singapore? Oh hoho, this is going to be fun.... hoping for Chaos.

 

[Risk Breaker]

Hey guys, just woke up, what's goin on h-

Oh shit it's raining pretty hard isn't it?

 

[Ark]

Damn, a wet Singapore race :O

 

[DrM]

Ferrari will put Kimi on slicks for sure

 

[Juicy Bob]

Putting all my money on it staying dry.

RIP

 

[PtKid]

I hope this race DOES NOT start behind a safety car.

 

[CrayToes]

Just tuned in. Fucking rain? Let's go.

 

[DieH@rd]

Charlie is 100% going to fuck the start up.

 

[magimix]

We just need enough rain to mess with strategy, but no so much to need any delays or red flags. (Guess while I'm here I'm ask for the moon on a stick too!)

 

[Waldo Lydecker]

Night, wet, thunder, slippery track...

Who will be the first retirement? Stroll, Grosjean, Max?

 

[John_B]

This will be awesome, someone is leaving Singapore unhappy.

 

[JDB]

Ferrari will put Kimi on slicks for sure

Gotta back up the Mercs!

 

[Dutch Gronk]

This is gonna suck for Ferrari fans, isn't it...

 

[magimix]

Night, wet, thunder, slippery track...

For my money, Grojean has the most trouble in damp or wet conditions - to be sure, I'm sure the issues he has with the car doesn't help at all.

 

[EnlightenedMint]

Give us that regular start

 

[BigAl1992]

It's a mixture of Inters and Wets on all the cars. Today is going to suck for someone today.

Also: Standing Start.

Cheers, having to pay for HD in 2017 is ludicrous

 

[DrM]

It would be awesome if rain would intensify, so those on inters would be in trouble.

 

[sTiTcH AU]

This is going to be awesome, or a complete disaster haha. Top 6 on inters will be interesting. The rain looks too heavy for inters

 

[bubaglobalj]

wooohooo rain!!!

 

[aspiegamer]

I don't think there's ever been wet conditions during the race here. A few practices and qualifyings that started on inters but... my my. This should be interesting. Woah @ the tyre variety.

 

[Tempy]

Hmm different starting tyres.

Full wets might be a bit too much.

 

[Aiii]

This is exciting.

 

[Adam Scott Aukerman]

It’s free on Channel 4, in HD.

 

[Gareth Bale]

This is going to be sick

 

[Breakage]

Damp start, hyped.

 

[sems4arsenal]

This could be a disaster.

 

[Juicy Bob]

FUCK YEAH WET SINGAPORE NIGHT RACE HOOK IT INT MY FUCKING VEINS

 

[Tempy]

Spray. At a street circuit. At night.

 

[Grug]

Oh man this looks dangerous.

 

[Joni]

I don't think there's ever been wet conditions during the race here. A few practices and qualifyings that started on inters but... my my. This should be interesting. Woah @ the tyre variety.

Indeed. First time ever, also first wet night race. Gonna be great.

 

[aspiegamer]

Thanks FOM! First wet night race ever. A thing that maybe shouldn't exist, but we're about to find out.

 

[BigAl1992]

The Spray is turning to mist almost immediately once it gets kicked up into the air.

 

[Business]

Oh yes.

 

[malyce]

Oh shit, this race is about to be lit.

 

[Cub3h]

This is fucking exciting, I can't wait!

 

[Graphics Horse]

Just tuned in, Is this f1's first wet night race?

Thanks FOM! First wet night race ever. A thing that maybe shouldn't exist, but we're about to find out.

thanks nvm

 

[EnlightenedMint]

A wet night race what could go wrong lol

 

[DrM]

How many DNFs will we see? 10+

 

[Xando]

Race is actually going ahead?

Fuck yeah

 

[Ennosuke]

FUCK YEAH WET SINGAPORE NIGHT RACE HOOK IT INT MY FUCKING VEINS

Usually I would say Fuck yes! But to be honest makes a win fot Seb less likely.
