Whilst that would be one interesting race, are you sure there's nothing in your drinking water?

I can definitely see a few coming to grief at Turn One, so you're probably close there.
 
It's just wet enough to be a problem in Monaco - everyone will have to start on inters, and the track will dry out, but more rain is expected.

Porsche and Formule Renault races at Monaco this morning both started under Safety Car (and both ended with a red flag): as time passes, the weather forecast brings us more and more to a similar start condition. (it wasn't the scenario earlier today)

Edit: Rain radar animation, Monaco is at the very bottom right of the country (not counting Corsica island)

Our CEO is at the race, Tweeting. His helicopter to the circuit was delayed due to the weather but it has just cleared enough to fly in.
 
Red Bull still working on Verstappen's car. It could be tight to see if they can make it to the grid.
 
So it's not going to be dry, interesting, should be fun. Now that I said that expect a million safety cars.
 
Lot of water on the grid, and it's raining. 25 mn from start, SC start is very likely now.
 
There's a homeless man who looks like Flavio Briatore on the grid ...
 
Safety Car start it seems.

Also Kimi's interview with Brundle on the grid. :lol:
 
Lol, Brundle twice just pretending DC & Eddie Jordan weren't there.
 
Official Timing still show Nasr and Verstapen as in Pit, do they start from the pit lane?
 
The start will under the safety car. Not good for those wishing to make a quick first impression (on the barriers:D).

Maldonado said most likely
 
It's raining. Great. :D

Wet races are always fun.
 
Safety car start to save the eventual turn one crash ruining the race and people switching to the N24 hours.

It will still happen when it comes in. I would place a bet on that.

Could be from the back, but doubt anyone from the front will take any risks, this race now has strategy involved so technically overtaking is on the cards again.

Sky just said Max is starting from the pits

Looked like he was on the grid? Oh well, he starts, and that's the important take away 👍

Daniil Kvyat's car already has problems, it's stuck in "constant speed"
 
Omg let them race! Get rid of that pig of a Benz leading the field!!
 
Kyvat still stuck at a constant speed.
 
So, not only is the Mercedes AMG GT dominating the 24h of Nürburgring, but now it leads a F1 race as well :D
