11:53 to answer your question of do they still race in the rain the short answer is yes they have intermediate tires and full wet tires, but there is a point where the race directors will red flag the session effectively stopping it if the rain becomes a huge safety hazard. When they do race in the rain the cars move so much water it is really hard to see anyway.

It depends on the quantity of rain: if it's light to moderate, they race, if it's heavy and it's too dangerous the session is red-flagged, basically paused, waiting for conditions to improve, if they don't improve in a set time (2-3 hours normally) the race is canceled. Happened at Spa last year.

1: F1 cars are Hybrids and all cars are powered by a turbocharged V6 with a electric motor to push over 1000HP or near that depending on the Power Unit and 2: Yes F1 does still race in the rain, they have 2 sets of tires to help the cars grip on wet tracks, one set is called intermediate and it’s used for light rain and the second set is called heavy wets which is used to heavy rain but there are some cases like Belgium 2021, where it rains so much and for a long period of time that they had to stop the race since it’s just to risky

[@peterporkeresq.2817]

[@JokerGames-ef4gw]

Kimi nagging about the drink is actually quite clever. He didn't care if he could drink or not, he wanted to now if he could empty the bottle. Empty bottle, lighter car. Lighter car is a faster car.

[@tayuno]

The thing with F1 Races in the rain is that they used to keep going even in heavy rain conditions, and there have been instances where, for example in Japan 1976, the race was still going to happen despite monsoon conditions. Niki Lauda famously withdrew from that race when he could've raced and tried to win the championship there, but he thought it was unsafe and with that, his rival James Hunt, who kept racing, went on to win the title that year. Nowadays, if the rain is too heavy, the race is being "red flagged", which is basically just like pausing it. During a red flag, no car is allowed on the track, cars must return to the pitlane and teams can change the tyres if they wish to do so. The last time we had a red flag for rain that delayed the race was the 2023 Dutch Grand Prix, but we also had the 2021 Belgian Grand Prix, which didn't even properly start. All we got was 3 laps under the Safety Car, and then the rest was cancelled after hours of waiting for better conditions which never came. Usually, there are always three different outcomes: 1. The race gets red flagged for heavy rain and continues once the conditions are better 2. The race gets red flagged for heavy rain and completely ends at that point if the conditions won't get better 3. The race doesn't even start. 1 being the one that happens the most, 3 the one that happens the least, but ever since the 2014 Japanese Grand Prix which has the last fatal accident of an F1 Driver (Jules Bianchi), they're being more and more careful with racing in the rain.

[@monsarch3436]

[@nataliebartkowiak8088]

It’s funny too watch that you two just sitting there and don’t know what too say. But as a person who watched all this races it’s really funny 🤣🤣

[@StefanVeenstra]

Races have a race time maximum of 2 hours and an event time maximum of 3 hours. The race clock get paused during red flag situations, which can happen because of a crash that requires marshals to enter the track or because of conditions making it unsafe to race. The event never lasts longer than 3 hours, regardless of red flags. This means some races can be cut short because of time restrictions, it happened last year at Spa, the weather was very bad for many hours they only did a few laps behind a safetycar to run at least the minimum amount of laps required for points to be alloted. So basically fans paid hundreds of dollars only to wait in the soaking rain for a lousy procession of slow driving cars, no race, no action, no refunds. You can imagine how well that goes down with folks.

[@noahhermansson]

11:23 depends on how much standing water there is on the track

[@RougeLino]

he said "KARMA!" 🤣🤣🤣

[@Lanes100]

For stopping the race for a safety issue, there are a few ways this is handled: 1. Yellow flags in the section of track where the incident occurred (if its a crash) - Under a Yellow, no passing is allowed, and cars must proceed with caution, but can do that at full speed. 2. Virtual Safety Car - This forces all drivers to maintain a "Positive Delta", meaning that every driver must drive the same lap time (at a slow pace) for the duration of the VSC, meaning they all hold their current positions before Green flag (race restart). 3. Safety Car - Actual safety car comes out, rounds up the pack and sets a pace for the pack to follow while the track is secured. In this scenario, drivers can bunch up to each other so when the restart happens, any drivers in the lead by a lot of time will have a disadvantage as now their rival will be directly behind them at the restart. 4. Red Flag - If track conditions are so bad that there is a safety issue keeping the cars driving any longer, the FIA will issue a red flag, stopping the race. There is a rule that a race will never exceed a certain time limit, so if that time limit is exceeded the drivers will be placed in the order they were in when the red flag was first waved, and if the time is not exceeded, the race will restart and run until the time limit, not to the normally allotted lap amount. There actually was a red flag for rain at Monaco in 2022, as the track conditions were so wet that even the wet tires were not enough to keep any grip and it was too dangerous to drive as determined by the stewards, so they stopped the race and the race ended up being 20 laps less than originally planned due to time constraints.

[@TheBazino]

The rain thing depends. In the old days rain before/at the start would get the race called off completely if too heavy. Otherwise they would race. Look up the Lauda/Hunt championship battle. Lauda crashed and burned alive (survived) in a rain race (the drivers had voted to drive), came back just 3 races later with burned face and lungs, then in the last race of the season in Japan it was raining that hard again but since they had for the first time sold TV rights around the whole globe, the race was driven. Lauda came back into the box after just 1 lap and got out of the car saying it's too dangerous to drive, so Hunt won the championship by 1 point that year. Nowadays the race start would be postponed (total time from the original start time can't be over 3 hours tho), if the weather would not clear enough for at least 75% of the race to be driven, the race would not start. If rain comes during the race, usually they drive, unless conditions get extreme (like Hockenheim back about 20 years when a lot of drivers crashed full speed into cars driving in front of them - since that race they have breaking lights on the cars), then they will have a red flag and try to wait out the heaviest rain. If conditions don't get better race will not be restarted. For this year they've developed a new tire that supposedly will disperse the rain from the ground better, so that they can see better when they are behind other cars. But let me tell you, I've raced in Go-Kart once in the rain and you can basically see nothing. And not just that, in each corner your inner side wheel will shoot a fountain of water directly in your face, so driving in the rain is absurd.

[@kobby5564]

Yh the FIA can pause the race in severe conditions and resume later.but they can drive in wet conditions,they have dedicated tires for that

[@Guzyedits]

They do drive in the rain, they have special tyres for it which can evacuate 23 galons of water per second per tyre at around 190mph. It is rare that a race is cancelled due to safety concerns (extreme weather), but it happens (once in Belgium last season, in Spa Francorchamps). This is because of the thight schedule and money invested in each race; cancelling is a really disastrous situation for FIA (F1 regulating body).

[@brandonnoffze4595]

I would say that not being able to see in the rain is common. There is still a point where its too dangerous, and the race director will pause the race. But even regular rain drives have extremely limited visibility and high danger. It usually makes things fun because all the cars and drivers behave differently so you get a mixed up finishing order.

[@SuperfluousIndividual]

I know I'm a year later, but I don't see anyone responding to 11:43, so here goes a proper answer and a meme-type answer: - Usually, races get paused. There's a maximum allotted time for a race, regardless of anything, it's like a clock that doesn't stop no matter what. I'm not sure if it's the same for all the races nor if it's 3 or 4h, but it's somewhere around that. Race ends once that threshold gets surpassed, no matter what. Cars could be behind a safety car, stopped in the pit lane during red flag, doesn't matter. So they wait it out and if there's still time, they resume the race. If, say, we have the 4h maximum allotted time for the race, they did 15 laps on a 60 lap race, started raining to the point where they paused it for like 2h30m and then resumed it again, race will probably not end at lap 60, it will most likely turn into a run the clock down type race. Could end in lap 40, lap 50, who knows. - Meme answer is, if the the green rimmed tires (intermediates) aren't good enough and the blue rimmed tires (wets, or extreme wets how they call it) are needed, there's no race.

[@hblandvreugd]

We were at the race in Belgium last year, which was the race that couldn't be raced, because of the heavy rain. Postponing, starting behind Safety Car, postponing again, another SC and ended in half points given at the end, so heavy rain is no race 👍🏾😉

[@Thunderbolt479]

Yep, normally when the conditions on the track are really bad (too much water on track, low visibility or huge crash), the session (free practice, qualifying or race) is red flagged, which means it's paused. At that moment, all the drivers go back to the pits. If the situation is fixed, the session is resumed. If the conditions worsens, the session is definitely stopped.

[@nathanwho1384]

Lando saying he was losing power wasn't electric, he can feel the engine losing power. And yes they race in heavy rain, and they will red flag and pause the race if there is too much standing water. Most of the time in the rain, the wet tires throw a lot of water in the air, so visibility is always a challenge. But that's what makes the rain so exciting. It's also an equalizer, because every driver has to be cautious. So it kind of equals out the performance and makes it a driver vs driver race, as opposed to a car vs car race like it is in the dry.

[@katywillcox2256]

Yes they do drive in the rain but if it gets too bad then they will either pause it or cancel it depending on how long it is predicted to last.

11:40 yes the race marshal will stop the race for temporarily if the rain stops and stop it permanently if the rain didn't stop for more or less than an hour and half and the race outcome is whoever in the position before the race is stopped and trust me guys, it's not a dumb question to ask cuz in some of the past races, the marshal just didn't stop the rain even when the driver can't see shit through their tight helmet (luckily they have this very great muscle memories of the track).

[@Thewhitetile]

They do drive in the rain up until its too much. Pretty much race until its a heavy downpour. Even a little rain causes the car behind to see very little to nothing. The wet and intermediate tires have ratings on how much water they move and it is a crazy amount. The best way to dry a track is to actually have the F1 cars race on it. You should check out the new camera that they have that shoots video from inside the drivers helmet right beside their eye. It shows you exactly what the driver is seeing when looking through the helmet.

[@Phillice]

They do be driving in the rain, where the downforce of the cars picks up a lot of water, in addition to what the tires displace. All that water ends up as spray in the air, reducing visibility literally down to the blinking red rain light of the car in front of you. So except for the guy in P1, the rest of the is actually driving pretty much blind.

[@calogerosantocono7995]

The race has a time limit, once the race starts they have 3 hours to finish. If they red flag the race due to weather, then they have until that 3 hour time limit is up, if they don't restart and they didn't complete half of the laps then they will be reward half points to the finishing order at the time the red flag comes out. If they are over half the laps complete then they get full points. If they resume than the run the full laps or until the time limit expires and then have one additional lap until the checkered flag.

Depending on the track the race will continue or not. But there are some types of heavy rain that the cars won't race or it will start with a safety car.

If it was the Austria circuit or Imola it wouldn't have stopped.

[@nuncapasaran9374]

Most race series will race under some level of rain conditions.

To answer your question, yes, they do race in wet conditions, for years the F1 had 2 types of tires for rain (intermediates and full wets). BUT for the last decade or so, and because how f1 are made ,is really hard to drive them in wet, so when there is a lot of rain, the race directors will send the safty car and just circle arroud trying to drain the water of the track and wait to the conditions to improve. IF the conditions don´t improve they just red flag the race and wait, until there is no more daylight and they just cancel the race and give half points. This wasn´t always the case, in the 90s, 80s, 70s, they race in really wet conditions and you end up with amazing races, even there were drivers that where so good at it, they were called "rain masters", Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher are two of them.
