I guess it's a question of safety.

It does strike me is a little strange that for the sake of safety, if the race is declared wet you must your rain light operating. But if it starts hosing down halfway through a race and guys are on slicks, you're not required to have your rain light going and their quite happy to have everyone running around until there's carnage. I'd suggest that what was alllowed to happen in Race 2 was far far far far more dangerous than a non operational rain light.
