he was on a good lap yeh, but it was verry wet in sector 3, like i said he was unlucky with the yellows but i still think he lifter too much, but maybe it was just how wet the last sector was

It wasn't just Alonso that called for a red flag. A radio transmission of Hamilton showed him to be calling for a red flag also. Doubtless there were other drivers and teams doing the same.

I never said he called for a red flag or not, I meant that they called a red flag, and as Ferrari were struggling, when the water clears they can all go back out and Ferrari can do better

Had this been a track with better drainage they would probably still be running. There is just too much standing water which makes the risk of aqua-planing far too high.

All drivers were struggling and when the water clears all drivers will do better, not just Ferrari.
