This is the driver Nick Heidfeld, BMW Sauber, who says that the FIA did the right thing to do appear red flag after having seen how poor visibility was at the beginning of.
When asked if he echoed comments by Fernando Alonso to his team that the conditions were the most dangerous he had known radio, Heidfeld said AUTOSPORT: "I agree, and that's what I said on the radio, because Charlie [Whiting, Director of race FIA] is in the listening." I think he had 24 pilots shouting the same thing in his ears!
"I said as it was the worst I had ever just entra?né.Et before it red flag, I said that they have red flag it."It was difficult from the outside to understand why it was so bad, because when we stopped and obtained outside that it resembled a whole little pleuve.Mais in the car, the visibility was zero.
"The only problem was the visibility because there was a little water .Volant alone, it would have been easy to drive.
Heidfeld believes that Whiting made all the right calls Sunday to ensure that safety was not compromised by the need to obtain the race goes for public television.
"Charlie did is not in a position easily," he said."Course, everyone wants to see a race and we need to have a show, but focuses on security as well."
"Where he sits relative to what we see is very different, for him to take a decision is very difficile.Je thought that it was a great decision to start behind the car security - as he gave us the chance to see the visibility."
"It's not very often we start behind the safety car, then it is red-flagged my compliments to him - so, I think he did good job."
Director of Bridgestone motorsport Hirohide Hamashima said that the problems at the beginning of the race were caused by the amount of rain falling but that the runway was draining tyre development not fast enough.
"The problem was further flowing water," he said. "The surface was actually correct, it is fast drying, but water landed just not the way.
"Standing water was so deep, but the drainage was not very good - a too spray."
