Torrential Rain Wrecked Havoc

The F1 race in Sepang was going on well until half way through the torrential rain wrecked havoc and causing the race to be suspended. It was extremely dangerous racing under the heavy downpour especially in Malaysia, the lightning could be very scary. The drivers seemed reluctant to restart the race, Mark Webber, Alonso and a few others were not hoping to restart the race when interviewed by the commentator due to too much of water on the road surface and poor visibility.

My house is about 40km from Sepang. It was raining heavily when the race was suspended with 24 or 25 laps to go. It was not even safe for normal driving under torrential downpour what more racing. Poor visibility and lack of grip can potentially be fatal to the drivers.What a disappointment, the race went on well at the beginning with plentiful of overtaking involving Timo Glock, Ruben, Nico Rosberg, Alonso, Jenson, Trulli and Mark Webber. Good thing is no serious accident happened; all the drivers were safe and sound despite some skidding off. As at 6.30 pm local time, the race was still suspended and no sign that it will be restarted.

It looks like Jenson is going to win his successive victory. Well done, London boy.
