It has to. It should come in at the end of the first lap - although we all know that won't happen.

Maybe if we are lucky, we might see Perez get the lead, then the race stops again, and he ends up winning the race.

Anyone want to make a prediction what position Karthikeyan will be when the safety car goes in and we get back to racing?
Miserable Thierry (Boutsen) staggers round mostly on ten cylinders (out of 12) with no clutch, low oil pressure, bad brakes and no grip to finish tenth, 3 laps down...

Ha, a couple days ago, Karthikeyan was on everyone's "not deserving an F1 drive" list. And he's dropped to eleventh now... Also, Vergne's on inters right? He could be in the lead!!!

Karthikeyan is still 10th. Safety car is on, so no overtaking. Vergne changed to full wets. They were forced to do it by race control.

They will change to intermediates as soon as the race properly starts. So, both your mom is very smart and Charlie Whiting is an idiot...
