The big shower here is over and it seems to stay dry for a while after this, with the emphasis on 'seems'.
Quali on an increasingly drier track quite likely at this point. #F1

Another qualifying to write off for Perez? It's wet and going to be changing conditions.

Why delayed by 10 minutes?! It is not even raining anymore. Current state of F1 is seriously horrible.

Tyres just losing temperature at the end of the pitlane as well.

He got lucky in the first session! Hope he doesn't have car damage from that off.

McLaren easily quickest in S2, but they are bleeding a lot of time through S1 and S3. I suspect their advantage in S2 will be reduced as track evolution ramps up.

They're running a lot more DF than most so that quick S2 / slow S1/S3 will probably continue

But it's marginally more beneficial in wet conditions vs. dry.
