Fernando Alonso has made the best of a difficult race that started in extremely difficult conditions. Alonso ran faultless, and profited from both Red Bull's not finishing to take the championship lead. Lewis Hamilton came in second, with Massa securing a great result for Ferrari in 3rd place.

There is a point of diminishing return, and the water is too damn deep. It was too wet out there when they started and that retard Bernie scheduled the race very late in the day to satisfy TV times. It's lunacy to drive in weather where you can't see your own tires. I don't give a damn how good the drivers are, stupid decisions are stupid decisions. Watching this bullshit parade is exactly what I'm talking about. 9 laps in and not one racing lap. This is LAME. all I am watching for now is to see just how many crashes there are. Because there sure as hell isn't going to be any racing.
Please, it is not that Hamilton has balls and that Vettel is weak. Look at the standings! If the race ends now, how will be happy? Vettel, Webber and to some degree Alonso. Hamilton will be out of contention if the race ends like this. THAT is why he is so chirpy and positive and wants to start the race right away.
Why are you swearing! go back to bed like ya told US.

Finishing races is important, but racing is more important.
I'm starting to think that maybe the cars will have to pit for new wet tires... before the safety car goes out!
I am not amazed by F1 cars in Monaco. I want to see them driving in the A8 highway: Variable radius corners, negative banking, and extreme narrowings that Tilke has never dreamed off. Oh, yes, and "beautiful" weather tops it all.

Because I'm an adult that's why. And I already said I just want to see the wrecks, cause that's all that's going to happen. But don't let me stop you from watching the MASSIVE DISPLAY OF SUPERIOR CAR CONTROL!

Lewis is right on the money. They should have started the race laps ago. They're all weaving off the racing line, because it's dry in places. Let's go, stop playing games, Red Bull and Ferrari.

if it goes on like this, the safety car will run out of fuel
slowly it turns into a joke, the conditions are not worse then in any other
wet race we have seen before

Ray you are in a minority with your thinking that the track is crap. Most drivers and users here on F1technical think the track is well designed.
The race will start any moment now and no more rain is due today.
