They obviously didnt have any flags or safety cars or radios in 2008 :)

Bit comical how long it goes on for? Was waiting for Jermey Beadle to pop up anytime :thumbsup:

What do we think the cause was? Wet? Ice?

At the ring its most likely oil, (And to be honest i cant see water causing that much hassle).

At a guess I'd say he was trying to keep racing funnily enough! That's not a TF session it's a race. Although a poorly organised one because as Kam says, it takes way too long for the marshalls to arrive. To be honest they would probably have been there quicker if it had been a TF day.

No it just looks like water to me. We all know from experience that water does have that much of an effect there, I believe that's even the same corner where we all had a similar experience last year. To me it looks like that's the start of a race, given the bunching of the pack, so oil on the track is unlikely.

the guy in that yellow punto was a bit stupid if you ask me, he passed one car slowly then when he saw the rest of them he booted it and lost control

''wonder why all these cars have crashed, oh well ill give it some gas''
