Safety car start it is then.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Didn't sound from the radio message that Nico got that it's going to get much drier.

 

[Carrotdude]

Makes sense, visibility looks awful

 

[Carrotdude]

Safety car back out, really dangerous out there by the looks of it, could have had something nasty when vettel was facing backwards and verstappen nearly took out Ericsson when he was stricken in the pit lane entry.

 

[Kenny]

Red flagged and rightly so

 

[Carrotdude]

They might just call this whole thing off

 

[The Bear]

No choice but to red flag it really.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Red flagged and rightly so

Got to be done. Mental that teams were going on inters

 

[Kenny]

Hulkenberg's car wearing some of Kimi's front wing. He must have crapped himself when he went through that.

Especially as the rain never got much better and everyone knew it was going to get worse again anyway

 

[Kenny]

Race has come to life. Max takes Nico in a great move and then somehow keeps his car out of the wall!! Top driving from Max

 

[Kenny]

Massa crashes out and the safety car is back.

When this restarts we have the Mercs on old full wet tyres and the Bulls on newish Inters. Gonna be interesting indeed.

 

[Kenny]

Or not. Ricciardo back on full wets.

 

[Kenny]

And so is Max. Red Bull gamble has failed at this point and let Nico back in.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Despite the rain, it has been a good race. Verstappen seems to be driving as though the track was dry. He is flying.

 

[Kenny]

Max is putting in a brilliant drive. Superb to watch. Just a shame he was denied a chance of the top 2. Might nab 3rd

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Verstappen gets third. A brilliant drive.

 

[Kenny]

Brilliant stuff. Up into 3rd. Stunning stunning drive from Max.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I see Vettel was fucking whinging again.

 

[Kenny]

First ever win in Brazil for Hamilton.

Needs to win in Abu and hope Rosberg finishes 4th or lower.

However today is all about Max. What a drive
