Track unusable and cold, the single-seaters remain in the pits

F1 Tests 2018 | It's snowing at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, the third day of testing doesn't start

The frost that characterized the second day of testing at Montmelò did not promise anything good, and in fact, on Wednesday morning, the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya woke up under the snow. Teams and professionals have turned up their collars and holed up in their respective hospitality areas, waiting for the weather conditions to improve and for work to begin again.

This hypothesis, however, seems remote, given the current situation, even if at the moment the start of the session is officially delayed and not cancelled. The track is mostly wet but the fallen snow is obviously present in many other places. Furthermore, in these conditions the medical helicopter would not be able to take off in case of need, so it is not possible to turn around without guaranteeing maximum safety for the pilots.

It seems that the organizers and teams will meet to decide what to do and possibly communicate the cancellation of the entire day of testing.
