Bernie Ecclestone has again prop🍰osed the use of sprinklerﷺs to create artificial rain in F1 events having claimed that there is growing support for the idea.

While a number of drivers, such as Red Bull Racing's Mark Webber, have stated there opposition for the idea, there has been some public support - with US Grand Prix promoter Tavo Hellmund amongst those to claim that the idea could work [See separate story HERE].

With that in mind, Ecclestone insisted o𝔍nce again that there is no reason why artificial watering of circuits couldn't happen although it would need to be a random moveꦿ to ensure it mimicked true weather conditions - when teams are unaware of when rain will arrive.

"There's no reason why sprinklers shouldn't happen," he told the BBC. "♕There's so much support because we🍨t races are always the best by far.

"I thought maybe at the b🐼eginning it was a little crazy [to suggest the use of sprinkler systems on F1 tracks] but it's surprising how much support that idea is getting now.

"Providing we do it so nobody would know when i🅷t was going to happen, like when it rains, I think it would make for a lot of entertainment.

"Whether or not it would make it more exciting, I don't know. Until you have done these things i♔t's impossible to say but I thought last year was a🔜 super season."
