Last weekend's German Grand Prix reminded us that Bernie Ecclestone's proposal from some years back that tracks should have a sprinkler system to produce random wet races might not be such a bad idea.
Joking aside, what happened at Hockenheim threw up plenty of randomness and showed that sometimes anything really can happen.
