They shouldn’t have done this unless they can let them go without the safety car. It’s farcical.

If RB took every opportunity to change Perez setup and fuel load here, then he could make a run through the field.

Kemmel straight is really bad. Can they stay under the SC for 15-20 minutes until they can clear some of this?.

He’s a lap or two down, isn’t he? I think all he would be doing is unlapping himself.

What a joke. They knew full well it was too wet still.

Congrats Max on the easiest win of your career.

This is an absolute farce. They rolled them out just to get an arbitrary result.

Complete b*******.

To think I hung around almost four hours to watch THAT.

So this was all about getting enough laps in to call it a ‘race’.

What an utter joke.

How this can be counted as a win is beyond me. Why not just cancel the whole thing? What sport is it in this?

I don't think I've heard a definite answer on that.

But anyway, seems like they might just make a farce of it. Let's see.

Yep, if I was anyone other than Max I'd be on the radio complaining about them just handing out free points to people.

Race control has quite a short fuse man. But Russell P2 and Latifi P9, nice haul haha.

No, I’m not sure we have either!

Looks like he won’t have a chance anyway. What a joke that was.
