[Adam Cooper} on Twitter: So that’s it, track action cancelled for today. Good news is that Michael Masi says that the FIA is working on “back-up plans” in case the medical helicopter can’t fly tomorrow

hook up a stretcher to an F1 car and drive fast af to the nearest hospital?

sounds like a certain top gear episode…

“FIA is proud to announce Teleportation.”

Would explain why their stewarding is all over the place.

Ferrari would still be too slow

Medical F1 2 seater with Inters/Wets ready lets go!

They’ll struggle to fit ECNALUBMA on that…

The issue is that they cannot depart from the track because of the fog, so that solution wouldn’t fix anything

Could they also strike a deal with a hospital in a different city? For example the university hospitals in Bonn or Cologne.

Rumors say that they are trying to aquire extra equipment for another ICU. Might be the backup plan.

Wonder how that would work. Hospital is too far, cant really bring the hospital to the track either (to the extends needed)

Chinese GP a couple of years ago, they brought the equipment and specialists to a nearer hospital so road transport was within tolerance. I believe that is the alternative being investigated.

It was always risky to come to the Nürburgring in October but I guess Saturday and Sunday should be mostly dry. The only problems for the next two days could be gusty wind and the cold temperatures. But one should not rely solely on the weather predictions, as the weather in the Eifel region can change rapidly. Looking forward to the next two days. Might see some interesting developments in qualifying and race

Why can’t a medical helicopter IFR instead

It can but it can’t land IFR at the hospital’s helipad.
