The forecast will not be changing, just had one last chat with Massimo Rivola and even Scuderia Ferrari are singing off the same song sheet, rain for the duration of Qualifying, heavy at times and wind has been downgraded to 45 km/h.

Edit: FIA has delayed qualifying for 10 minutes in order to see if the weather relaxes...see you all after qualifying.

Further 10 minute delay...

Ok time to stay on here and have some food with fellow corporate guests who are hating this delay mind you.

However our hearts are really going out to those who are outside on the grounds doing it tough in this rain!

Way to start 2013 FIA...another weather farce

Finally we have David Croft and Martin Brundle for TV broadcasting for Star Sports and ESPN in India . I am very happy ,they are the most informative bunch of the commentators (much better than Gary Anderson) . Though there are breaks still in the live broadcast

Super sweeping slow-mo. Ugh. They are starting to become like NASCAR when it rains.

Wet track = no driving these days

[Ganxxta]

Anyone remember the good old years when they had more power, less downforce and drove in even wetter conditions?

I hate this new FIA strategy since a few years.
Just let them drive, if they can't they wont go as fast as they could, easy as.

They have only 3 sets of wet tyres. It's why they didn't want to run in the rain, it's not enough.
