The 2007 European GP was held at a fairly dry Nurburgring but the chance of rain was extremely high. When the heavens did open a number of drivers were caught out at Turn 1. The victims included Jenson Button, Lewis Hamilton, Adrian Sutil, Nico Rosberg, Vitantonio Liuzzi and Scott Speed.

Mercifully the race was red-flagged and Hamilton was able to rejoin but the other drivers were forced to sit on the sidelines.
