That would be very epic... I don't know if I want this race to be restarted, really!

I have to say this once again highlights why starting this race so late is a bad idea, if we end up like Canada last year the race will get aborted due to light problems

But the longer the SC went on for, the more likely Vergne would have binned it and HRT would have doubled their points haul

If the race ends at this point, would it beat the record from the 1991 Australian GP?

The sad part will be that HRT, technically, will not be the first new team to score a point

Did McLaren just mounted tents for their cars? That is just typical for them to worry with such details. It almost looks like they are the more feminine team in F1...

Mercedes has tents? Missed that part. When I first looked at the grid formation only McLaren had them. Mercedes are slower to mount the thing. Another detail...

It wouldn`t surprise me if Adrian Newey is designing an new kind of tent with a DRS so that it can get to the grid faster.

I only saw the end of that race. A silly timezone conversion error made me lose most of the thing.

I'd say Pedro could definitely have got further up the points, his experience (and general pace) is higher and better than Narain's.
