Sadly i wasn't there. I have to leave my house to run some errands for my parents. What a pity. I miss two wonderful races in a row. Hopefully will be able to catch the race in Spain. =P

I sent a email to live timing asking why the China and
Malaysia races were shown as dry.We'll see the answer
if they respond that is.

As has already been said if they run on inters or wets and do not have to use the prime and option then it has to be a wet race to read it any other way would not be right. ;)

Having slept on this I do not believe it requires a committee to decide a wet race, wet tyres are useless if its dry so would not be used as a tactic, if a team/teams use wet tyres its raining. Simples!! :good:
This fact should be enough to decide if its a wet race for the Grid game.

Or maybe we could have a poll of those competting? :DntKnw:

This is weird. How can live timing conclude there is no rain when there's so much of it about?

I reckon if the commentators say it's raining, we take their word for it unless they're obviously wrong. Live Timing doesn't have eyes, after all...

If it doesn't rain, the drivers still don't have to use both compounds if they decided to put on wet or intermediate tyres at some point anyway.
