Internet jokes about lack of rain: 'What about that 100 percent?'
The qualifying session for the Turkish Grand Prix has brought a few surprises, but most of all a lot of excitement. Beforehand the FIA predicted a 100 percent chance of rain during the session and although that rain did come, it largely stayed away from the circuit in Istanbul. This is how the internet reacted to all the events on Saturday!
Excitement in the rain
Man this slight bit of rain has made this F1 Quali really interesting.
