2023 São Paulo Grand Prix - Interlagos, Nov 03 - 05

What was McLaren thinking?

[search]

4 minutes left, why no re-start? The weather may move through quickly.

complete nonsense, yeah. How do the rules even allow this, and does the result still officially count?

I mean, it obviously would most likely change nothing about the result if they continued, but how can they just decide to stop qualifying?

[chrisc90]

Race control really need to address this.

The sun isn’t particularly strong. Will take quite a while for the track to dry. It won't be competitive in time.

Come on now. They have weather radars. That storm looked like a scene from some apocalypse movie, you think it was going to pass and give a dry track within 4 minutes?

[chrisc90]

It could allow some laps on the inter tyre for data gathering.

Whatever the weather, Max always there to deliver.

Was he 1st on track in Q3 ?

no, 99,9% not, but I'd like to know who is allowed to make a decision like this, and on what grounds. I mean, it took them like a minute.

Umm, common sense?

[chrisc90]

Was he 1st on track in Q3 ?

Not sure what difference that makes. You dont start the race on your Q3 position.

[avantman]

The fastest and the best driver does it again, making all the difference not having the fastest car. Best qualifier on the grid by far.

No, not 99,9%. Literally 100%. Unless the sun explodes that amount of water is not clearing in 4 minutes. There's absolutely zero uncertainty here. These complaints are just misguided. And the race director is the obvious answer to your question.

[Cs98]

Whatever the weather, Max always there to deliver.

Was he 1st on track in Q3 ?

He was like 5th in the running order, behind Lewis.

[avantman]

Mclaren are running their cars so low to the ground, aren't they ? did you notice that too?
