168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton has pleaded with F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali to provide “better 🦩tyres” after qualifying at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix was postponed due to wet weather.

Saturday’s regular quali✅fying has been moved to Sunday morning after a deluge of rain and thunderstorms hit the Interlagos circuit, leading to conditions which meant the session could not take place.

Domenicali was conducting an interview with F1 TV to apologise to the fans when he was interrupted by seven-time world champion Hamilton, who challenged the former Ferrari boss live💮 on air.

“You should’ve sent us out, this is ridiculous, we should 🅰go out! I wanna go out,” a smiling Hamilton said.

“If you give us better wet tyres or blankets we'd be abl𓃲e to run in this! I’m putting you on the spot,” he added𝔉, laughing.

Domeni🉐cali said: “First of all let me reiterate that these fans are incredible.

“We cannot control the weather as you know and it’s a pity but the conditions are not safe to drive, it’s as simple as 🍌that. There is a problem of light also. So unfortunately tha🌠t’s the situation we have to manage.”

Qualifying was due to start at 18:00 GMT (15:00 localඣ) but was subject to nearly two hours of delays before officials opted to reschedule the session.

Explaining the decisio꧋n, an FIA spokesperson said: “The decision was taken because of the lack of visibility caused by the level of rain we have experienced in the past few hours.

“There is a lot of stan💟ding water on parts of the circuit, which renders conditions unsafe.

“As much as we would all like to see competition on track, the safety of drivers, team members, 🐻volunteers, officials and spectators is our main priority.”

Qualifying is now set to take place at 10:3ꦦ0 GMT (07:30 local), with the grand prix starting at 15:30 GMT (12:30 local).
