Is the race stopped in case of rain?
No, normally the race is not stopped if it starts to rain. It is up to the drivers and teams to decide whether they want to stop at their pit to change tyres or continue with the dry-weather tyres. However, if the conditions are such that driving at racing speed would constitute a serious danger, the Race Director may order the use of the Safety Car (in which case the normal Safety Car procedure would apply – see 57 above and 62 to 64 below). If the conditions are so extreme that to carry on driving would be dangerous even behind the Safety Car, the race would be stopped. 61.
