I saw at least 2 red flags by livetiming in practice 2, but I could have missed something.

I was told that there were 5 red-flags (the 5th happened about 40seconds after the restart from the 4th!) and they declared the session 20minutes before a full hour would have been run as they were so far over time by that point.
What they cause of them was though I'm afraid I don't know. |

Session was finished in time (about 17:00), but the time when flags were on wasn't added.

Just look at the entry list:
Australia - Will Power/Christian Jones Austria - Mathias Lauda Brazil - Nelson Piquet Jr./Joao Paulo de Oliveira Canada - Sean MacIntosh China - Qinghua Ma/Tengyi Jiang Czech Republic - Jan Charouz France - Nicholas Lapierre/Alexandre Premat Germany - Timo Scheider/Adrian Sutil Great Britain - Robbie Kerr/Alex Lloyd India - Karun Chandhok/Armaan Ebrahim Indonesia - Ananda Mikola Ireland - Michael Devaney Italy - Enrico Toccacelo/Nino Piccoli Japan - Ryo Fukuda Lebanon - Basil Shaaban/Khalil Beschir Malaysia - Alex Yoong/Fairuz Fauzy Mexico - Salvador Duran Netherlands - Jos Verstappen/Jeroen Bleekemolen New Zealand - Matt Halliday/Jonny Reid Pakistan - Adam Khan Portugal - Alvaro Parente/Joao Urbano Russia - Alexey Vasiliev/Nikolay Fomenko South Africa - Stephen Simpson/Gavin Cronje Switzerland - Neel Jani USA - Scott Speed You've got drivers of vastly different abilities in there. Red flags are inevitable. |
