So, having seen many very wet races over a number of decades, is this resistance against wet races a result of over-sensitive health and safety or are cars getting progressively more difficult to race in the wet?
H&S me thinks. Let's call it the Bianhci rule.

As Russell himself said yesterday - he needs to nail that braking into Turn 1.
I was watching his onboards during FP1&2 and he was quite inconsistent on the breaking point there. Never seemed to carry a "Hamilton" level of speed through the first apex.
