    On one hand it would be nice for George to get podium in a Williams but a bit hollow.

    Could they do this under virtual safety car? Would allow for a little more speed and maybe more clearing of water.

    Prolly not... Probably just have people spinning off left and right.

    Just shut down my own thought ... Oh well.

    Taking them out just for classification is just bollocks. Happy for George, but still utter crap

    What a joke, should never had started it. Why don’t they just come back tomorrow and race. They only have to travel with the equipment to Holland, not like it’s a fly away race next.

    It's a bit like an old dog you just don't want to say goodbye to, but you know it's for the best to just end the pain.

    Awarding half points for driving the car behind an SC is ridiculous. At least Malaysia 2009 they had a go!!

    No issues with not racing if it’s too dangerous, especially the nature of Eau Rouge and the unfortunate possibility of hitting the barrier and bouncing back into oncoming 190MPH traffic, but don’t award points for driving exploratory safety car laps FFS.

    Well.... We're not going to have much to talk about this week.

    Are they really going to do a podium?
