I'm pretty sure someone will be brave enough to continue and snatch the win.

It's totally unfair to those drivers who may have an advantage in wet weather driving. It's bad enough that because of the way they make the calendar nowadays, we only have two, max three wet races per season.

Just like USA 05. don't force the ones who are not afraid to race (or put themselves in a position to do be able to, by not having the car so close to the ground, or by being carefull/smart or just by being damn good) to lose their oportunity.. And if some cars go to the barriers or someone gets hurt, it was still his choice, his responsability. Disgusting.
In the current "nanny state" conditions that exist today, it is alsways someone elses responsibility.
