Race suspended as rain spread (10)
I believe the answer is:
hungarians
'race suspended as rain spread' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'suspended as rain spread' is the wordplay.
'suspended' becomes 'hung' (I've seen this before).
'spread' indicates anagramming the letters.
'as'+'rain'='asrain'
'asrain' with letters rearranged gives 'arians'.
'hung'+'arians'='HUNGARIANS'
Can you help me to learn more?
