Race control is pretty trigger happy with these red flags.
Better safe than sorry, I suppose, but it is a bit annoying when it’s pretty clearly unnecessary.
You’re not kidding. If you just look at races that were red flagged then between 2001 and 2018 there was 17 red flag situations.
There have been 17 Red flags shown during races since 2020.
There has been a massive increase in Red flags since Charlie died in 2019 and that’s not even counting practice and qualifying where reds are seemingly used instead of yellow flags.
Stop it Max, they’re already dead!
I’m sure Lawson would’ve wished for slightly better conditions for his first session.
And a longer session…
Track is still pretty wet at the moment, not sure if more rain is coming.
Looks like it’s raining
More rain coming in 4-5 minutes, they say.
Not even “pissed off” can be said on Sky without serving up an apology.
Sun and clear skies from 14:00 and onwards, according to yr.no.
What a messy session. I’m expecting a very difficult rest of the weekend for Lawson.
