Red Flag!!
With less than 15 minute to go the race has been redflagged because of weather conditions. Snow and hail.

@Cheeveer hope you made it to Spa and are having fun. You must be used to the conditions, and feel quite at home. :haha: :wink:
(Im cold here and its 17C. I'm lying on the sofa with the heating on, a glass of red in hand, watching the V8s night racing in Perth on TV!) Still rather be there though
It was amazing, and absolutely awful. :haha:
Glad to have been a part of truelly historically bad racing weather at least. But no, do not recommend.

Proof that making a viable platform for privateer teams should be the top priority for all series.

This went poorly.
