It would have been good to see how Hulkenberg got on, i think he would have started on mediums like Sutil did (and this is purely what gave him such a great run).
There's a risk of serious accident all the time. A lot of worst accidents of the last 10 years have all come in dry conditions (eg Kubica at Canada, Ralf at Indy). So we might as well start every race under SC by that logic.
The problem is that the wet tyres do not shift enough water or raise the ride height of the car enough (to help avoid aquaplaning). I think if the wets were sorted, this stopping of heavy rain-hit races wouldn't be such a big issue. Another thing that doesn't help is parc ferme, teams can't use real wet setups any more.
He really cut through the field today.

I always get nervous at even the SLIGHTEST possibility of rain at Sepang.... knowing race control these days....
It's a lot better to postpone the race or start under a safety car than risk a serious accident.

Rising number one of Formula 1, Juan - Juan, one wonders should Juan only win one Formula 1 one year, would Juan have won that one in round one, Juan??
If it rains and the track' cold again, with no upgrades, it will likely be similar to yesterday. But if the tracks warmer, maybe the order will mix up a bit.
make sense?
