Simple, post your strangest and most stupid racing moments of all.
This is a WTF? Gotta love the Wright Brothers comparison!

Well it wasn't going to be long until this got posted.

What's more surprising there is that they still made the cars race in absolutely pouring rain like that.
But it serves as a good example about why in F1 they are so very very careful about wet weather racing and trying to make the right calls on whether a race should start.
But sometimes its going so slow that its not racing...just look at Malaysia 2009 or the 2007 European GP. Its not fun to watch cars spin off and almost hit marshalls. Its not as simple as saying the drivers should just drive slower - its pretty tricky to drive slow but also race when your car can aquaplane anytime. There is a point where race control must decide whether its safe enough to race, not the drivers. Though usually the drivers themselves are the ones that call for the red flag too.
