Well, by your reasoning then

Nope. By your version of my reasoning based on something I didn't say.

Anyone 'member when Max Verstappen got a 5s penalty for an unsafe release at Monaco this season? I 'member.


Actually, anyone 'member when Max Verstappen span the car and raged at the team for putting him on the wrong tyres about 30 minutes back? :lol:
 
They have to box Lewis. His penalty will be largely negated by the SC.
 
And anyway... Safety car on warm-up laps untill track was almost dry... A lot of crashes with moist track on intermediate tires... I wonder... Are the cars unsafe to run in wet conditions, or nowadays drivers have same driving skills as a sponge?

Ferrari: Unsafe pit release - stewards issue a fine.

Team error. Punish the team.

Famine
Mercedes: Enter pits the wrong side of a bollard rather than carry on with a dangerous car in wet conditions - five second penalty

Driver error. Blame the driver.

As it should be. But the FIA should have told us that the rule has been changed.

I don't think you're allowed to serve the penalty under SC

Quite so. It was only two months ago that a driver got a five second penalty for an unsafe release... Given the circuit he was at, he (and the team) would probably have preferred the fine.
 
Albon still fourth!!

Vettel tenth.
 
Bit unfair to fine Leclerc but give Lewis the penalty after recovering from a crash.... hey-ho


The smart play is to let Lewis loose and have him attack max and just hope for something to happen
 
It's really saying something when the TV announcers who do this for a living, after all this time still calling Racing Point a Force India. Are they just that dumb/can't unlearn things?
 
4 pit stops so far for vettel and Verstappen
 
Rolling roadblock Bottas will help Max.

Lewis hunted down by the mid pack. :lol:
 
It might be time for slicks.
 
WHy are they pitting now and not a minute ago under safety car?
 
So with Vettel and Hamilton out of the reckoning, who from Formula 1B is going to make it on the podium?
 
Hot take: extremely fast, powerful cars with not that much grip makes for hilarious, unpredictable, compelling and interesting races.

Stroll is gonna be under interstellar pressure.

These cars are absolutely awful at low speed. I'd be happy if they reduce the amount of aero.
 
This race is mental!!!
 
I think Kvyat is earning himself a promotion

Edit: or Albon
