Thanks. How is that different though? Are the monsoons more widespread (i.e. guaranteed to hit the track) making rain for this event less likely?
Malaysia, as a country is located in the middle of Tropical Rain Forests and on most days of the years, Rain is guaranteed. Having lived there for couple of years, I can tell you when it rains, it's intense.
As for GP itself, since the Bianchi incident, where the officials denied to start the Suzuka GP early, though it was getting darker and darker by the day, now the races can start early if it really demands. We have seen in Sepang also that, when it rains in the afternoon, it really gets darker and remains darker as it approaches the evening. Would it rain on Race day? Too early to predict, but it should be fun to have a WET race.
