Apparently because there is only one dry line and off line is not fully dry it’s a disadvantage to drivers off the dry line so they can’t do a standing start
I still don't see why we can’t complete the full 77 laps. We’ve had red flags etc and still plenty of light, what different does 2 hr race length make if we can complete it without issue.
They are way too risk adverse. They haven't had to learn to take risks with such a dominant car in previous years.
