I don't think there's any provision in the sporting regs for moving a race to a Monday. The only thing in there about races being abandoned due to rain talks about allocation of points based on the number of laps completed. If I remember right, less than 2 laps means no points awarded, so as shit as it sounds, I wouldn't be surprised if abandoning on Sunday meant no British GP this year.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss Amad saving our blushes in a win against Southampton as well as our now annual loss at home to Brighton. They discuss Amorim's post-match comments, revisit how mid-table we may or may not be, and discuss some transfer news.
Dont think the race will be in doubt forecast for Sunday is better, but I can see the qualifying being a different story. The rain for today down there is bad.
If today is a washout I think they would do the qualifying 2 hours before the race, not sure about this, has it even happened before?
Edit: It has Japan 2010, how could I forget and they did the qualifying on the Sunday morning.

This should be interesting.
Oh dear Jenson....
That was strangely inevitable. Button going out that is
He was well up before the yellows, shame.
fecking sky trying to make excuses for Jenson. Fact of the matter is the track was too wet in the final sector and he was never going to push through regardless of where the yellow flags were.
I'm a Button fan, but man he stinks right now.
Well that got wet really fast didn't it.
The track is like a lake
I can see a red flag any second now
Alonso you stuffy sod 
Yeah they are gonna stop this one pretty soon.
Alonso calling for the Red flag, mainly to change his pants I think.
I love the wet. Red flag.
pussies
If manufacturers actually produced a monsoon wet like they fecking should we'd still be going.
You are correct, tough conditions but a) its because they don't have the tyre and b) they all cry when it gets a bit dangerous.
Edwards thinks the red is for the weather.
I'm so glad he's there to keep us informed.

They moved the Japanese GP to a Monday once due to a Typhoon.
Can we keep Murray all weekend?
Murray talks for 1 minute, better than a season of Edwards.
Don't get why they couldn't move qualifying to an earlier time.
Eddie: "Coffee is the last thing on the teams mind"
In the background team member is filling his plate with food

Eddie Jordan has clearly not finished his soup.
Button the new Massa ? Sack both.
3 pm predicted re-starting time.
Bernie refuses the opportunity to stick the boot in to Silverstone, fair play.
Lol eddie
Anyone see when Jake told some team in front of Eddie that it was the team labelled as the 'biggest disappointment' by Eddie himself. So awkward
He just said bollocking on TV too, he's good entertainment.

I love Eddie Jordan
Alonso scrapes into Q3, did he slow for the yellows though?
Hamilton a second ahead of everyone.
Why did Grojean have to retire after ending up in the gravel?
You have to get back to the pits under your cars own power.
how does ferrari have 2 second gap in qualifying?
edit: redbull faster.

Cheers.
Alonso is excellent.
Well done Schumi.
Alonso on pole...but driver on pole hardly ever wins a wet race.....Schumi and Lewis are the favorites for tomorrow.
