Start of the test is delayed due to the medical helicopter unable to fly <-- unable to take off

Which forum member was it who mentioned cars running in snow.
Well you got your wish. Happy now.

Well this week has been a really disappointing test so far. Plummeting temperatures l, tyres not really in operating windows, disruptions in weather.

They really ought to put an extra couple of days on top of the second test, weather permitting.

Going forward why not go back to Bahrain for pre-season testing, at least they get consistent dry running in appropriate temperatures, the difficulty will be getting all teams to agree though.

Teams should just be allowed to Test where they want. If some want to spend more, but get reliable Conditions that's fine. Whoever wants cheaper Testing, go somewhere near.

Snowballs should be banned, they are in schools now

Some teams are apparently planning to go out before the snow disappears, purely for photo opportunities! Can't say I blame them.
