The track is wet but it isn't raining. Track should dry relatively quickly if the cars do a bit of running. Of course it also depends on the track surface and the temperature

Interesting if the track remains wet until qualifying! We haven't had a wet qualifying session this season (and this current format)

There will only be 5 minutes in the session (if they get the all clear!)

The session has been abandoned!

This was due to poor visibility that prevents the medical helicopter from taking off.
