Description:

So, what do you do when the rain is pouring in your face, and the whole world is on your case? Do as Michael Masi (not Adele) does & stare at the same graph for four hours while everyone just...waits. 

The Spa Grand Prix was a cold rainy mess, seemingly to no one's shock but the FIA's. Sure, we gave it the old college try and got a couple riveting laps in. But mostly, today's GP was like watching a nature documentary about the world's greatest racing drivers just exist on a rainy Belgian tundra. Narrated by F1's answer to the soothing voice of David Attenborough -- above average rain jokes.
