The bits of F1 I saw this morning were the same old boredom as normal, hardly any overtaking.

And not driving in the rain? Gay boys.  The cars should be designed to run when its wet as well - I suspect a lot of pissed off Mayalisans who probably paid £100 to see 1hr of cars follow each other.

They may be super cars TB, but they are not amphibian with radar!

the safety car could do it, if the £5m F1 cars can't, then they need to ensure they can.

What F1 has lost sight of is that its a sport, ultimately paid for by spectators. If they piss off the spectators - which seems to have happened over the past few years (forgetting the Hamilton effect in the UK) - then the sport has no money.

I think the real problem TB is it is run by people who couldn't plan or organize a piss up in a brewery!!

Geriatric Midgets & Fascists you mean

The fact that they still have not managed to generate enough overtaking shows they don't see it as a spectator sport...

Plenty of overtaking today, even before the rain came down!

Unbelievable it may be, but a general admission ticket, i.e. no seat, just find a bit of grass, is only £5 in Malaysia!!!!!!!! Only tickets left for Silverstone are numbered seats at £279 for the day. Might be cheaper to fly to Malaysia and have some fun there.

"we should not have races stopped because of rain,even if it snows we should carry on racing.We would have to go slower but we can still race and the best driver should still win.The spectators pay their wages to come and watch us,the best drivers in the world,and if they stand in the rain or whatever to watch us,then we owe it to them to race"

too right as well, we dont sit in the traffic till it stops raining so why should they stop. i used to love formula 1 but its died a very fast death now, all the family used to sit and watch when i was young and it was great.

They should be made to take all the 'trick bits' spoilers etc of the cars and each car tested to equalize downforce across the board.
Engine wise,maximum emissions should be set at a reasonable level and let them do what ever else they want.
No Booster rockets though!

I thought there was loads of overtaking as well. It was a good race even thou they had to stop it . I think the view from the cameras was  a bit misleading it was very dark and very wet

There were a handful of overtakes, mainly cars way faster than car in front, and mostly around Webber, who can go a bit crazy at times.

This is one of the easiest circuits to overtake on. They still have not overcome the overtaking issue in the sport. There's something wrong when the most exciting bits are the pit stops (that I think should be banned anyway).
