Not sure if these videos have been posted here before so thought I'd share. I know the discussion time and come and gone and we're now on the Chinese GP but this vision is too good to not share.

I think it's very clear just how much Hamilton slowed down and came to a near stop.... but in saying that you can see Vettel look to the right and watch Hamilton instead of looking ahead. Visibility was poor, however not so bad that Vettel wouldn't have seen Webber had he been looking ahead where he should have been.

Wow! it looks dangerous in the rain.
Drivers should be careful.

It is my understanding that these guys couldn't see anything because their visors fogged up as well. How they could race anything, let alone an F1 car in these conditions is beyond my comprehension. I wouldn't even walk my dog in the park under those conditions. :(

By hte way, Ari tells me the weather at Shanghai, according to the webcam, is really miserable.
