The valid results are one lap before the red flag...

New Webber would pit 1 lap before the downpour & thus chuck him back in the pack - always the way for poor Mark

The rule states the valid results are always one lap before the red flag.

And only half of the points will be given.

Rubens not a happy bunny (again) then?!!!
"Dodgy pit stops and confused call from the pit wall" Anyway, little doubt that Toyota look like the main challengers to Brawn for the forseeable future, with RBR hot on their heels? |

The position order change stuff was clearly part of the anti-Hamilton/anti-Mclaren witchhunt conspiracy.
I don't understand how it could be seen as following standard procedure. |

It took them a long time to work them out, but the amended results are correct by my understanding of the rules, so nothing to do with any so-called anti-Hamilton/anti-McLaren conspiracy.
Shame for Glock, though |

Much better than getting it wrong though, wasn't it Fisi in Brazil who had to wait for the next GP to get his trophy.

It was a plenty enjoyable race insofar as it lasted. It is going to be interesting to see what Bernie has to say about everything, though, since what happened cannot be put in the totally surprising category. |

Great race, but unfortunately too short. If only it had started earlier (so a restart would be possible)... than it would be excellent. Stupid decisions.

I know the rules have to be followed, but given the amount of effort put into the race, shorter though it may have been, by the drivers and the teams, half points do seem to be a meagre reward. |

Well, I don't think we need to revise the points deal since the last time it happened was 1991.

I was really enjoying that until it became impossible to race. Bernie has got a bit too greedy - people have been saying for months that running the race so late in the day would be too dangerous because it rains cats and dogs at the same time every day, and he should have listened. He wanted the biggest TV audience he could get, and his viewers only got half a race. A huge error on his part, IMO.
