Yeah it is kinda annoying, rain makes the race so interesting. It feels reactionary almost, like the teams won't use the extremes (or even inters it would seem) and they end up red flagging because the conditions are unsafe. Idk maybe at a certain point it's too wet for extremes? But even then nobody ran them so how would they know? I guess it's probably more to do with spray from the aero when I think about it. If it's wet enough for extremes then there's probably so much spray that nobody can see and they need to red flag for that.
