They showed an angle where you could see another car behind the tractor and they did mention that it's now official that it was Bianchi.

I would honestly rather it end under red flag than the results be turned into a dice roll by rain.

I heard Sky talking about it, but no footage shown.

Apparently Marussia received no reply from Bianchi when they asked if he was OK after crash :ohdear:

It's really strange how the BBC guys haven't even mentioned Bianchi, they still think it is Sutil hurt?

I don't think the safety car went out until after the 2nd car hit.

Just catching up on the thread now...

1) 200 new posts, that's the power of the rain for you
2) Can only assume they brought Vettel in to get Ricciardo a few more points in the championship race, can't fathom it otherwise
3) Was immensely frustrated by the BBC not mentioning Bianchi at all, was worried, and reading these replies isn't promising
