Appalling choice by the FIA. There really is no need.

Nope, can't do anything in regards to the suspension unless they take the car off the grid & start from the pit lane or from the back of the grid, which I think is what they've done with Alguersari

I don't like it, but I think it's the procedure in case it wasn't any wet practice...

EDIT : regarding to safety car start

According to the guys who are in the cars it is pretty wet and slippery.

Awww diddums. Are these the best drivers in the world or not? I don't understand why on earth the safety car is needed with hardly any standing water of significance.

Edit: This also means the FIA has mandated everyone must start on the full wet tyres, taking any chance of someone taking a risk out of the equation.

I don't like it either but that is the decision that has been made.

Incidently, no DRS until the race director says so.
