Race starts behind the safety car and on cold full wets, going to be a fun race.
With no pits allowed and no rain the track will dry very quickly.

Hang on Sky are on about cars pitting after the SC comes in, I thought there was no pits on the sprint race
Ted talking about cars pitting, so you can pit...?
Ferrari with their tyre degradation will be a shitshow.
Would help if I read the rules 
There will be no mandatory pit stops during the sprint race. Only if a driver faces a puncture or repairable damage like a front wing or its rains, only then would we see anyone making a pit stop.

Thought so. They did it in the last Sprint race i think.
FIA were always going to be ultra conservative at this circuit given its recent history and incidents this year.
Oscar s helmet always seems a bit tight with the way it's pushing his cheeks up
I do have a major soft spot for these wooded/hill circuits like Spa, Hockenheim and the Red Bull Ring. Something about it is just so old school magical.
Booooo. Go racing. Standing start. Boring.
Thats exactly whats gonna happen.
Haha Safety Car almost lost it there.
4 laps of this...sigh.
come on they are big boys, they know its wet LET THEM RACE
4 laps of SC ridicules
4 laps of SC ridicules
Haven't been entertained this much since Spa 2021
Are they just making it up as they go along?
so is this still the formation lap or has the race started ?
Watch Ferrari pit too early.
Pre WDC era but Nuvolari would have won in multiple cars. Alfa, Maserati and probably Auto Union if not for a certain German.
Also worth mentioning Tom Kristensen who won Le Mans in 3 different cars
Max is tired of this shit
Its like watching the monaco gp
I will look them up afterwards
Nope they still formating
Another lap behind safety car. What a joke.
They re formatting the formatation of the formation at this pt.
This really is excessive. Come on ffs
Just put the cars in the pits and bring the super sopper out..
Yes it is. Especially when most all of the teams will pit for inters. F1 has gone mad.
Alpine and unsafe releases. Name a more iconic duo. At least that looked unsafe to me.
About 15 near misses in the pit lane
What's the race director doing! Let's see Piastri take 1st
If only FIA has that much sense.
WOW that pit lane is a crazy place to be
Way to go Oscar !
Oscar and McLaren did well but there is no way he holds off a rainmaster like Max in slippery conditions.
Birthday boy bins it
Alonso out, safety car.
Oh, Fernando
Where is Masi when you need him?
