FORMULA 1 QATAR AIRWAYS AUSTRIAN GRAND PRIX 2024
Verstappen 10s penalty is not enough for costing lando the race that he would have won
Lando still had that 5 second penalty for track limits, he might have got around max but who knows if he could’ve built a 5 second gap in like 5-6 laps
It’s absolutely insane to me that they penalised a driver for locking up and handing the position back. What’s the point of racing?
It should’ve been clear to a driver of his calibre that he wasn’t making that move, and even if he didnt realize that.. he had gone off three time already when F1 drivers are supposed to be of the calibre to stay on track. Once during a dive isn’t a big deal, the problem is he’d already gone off three times.
These guys should be able to stay in the lines at the peak of Motorsport and driving for millions of € a year
If you’re opinion is to follow the letter of the law in that sense, how do you feel Verstappen didn’t even get a warning let alone a penalty for moving under braking?
He should’ve, feel like he didn’t only because the wreck happened, that they penalized him for, and his race was hampered enough that they didn’t add more on. Sometimes the stewards act like if your race is ruined due to X then they don’t need to enforce Y. I’m not sure I agree there
Max also had a potential penalty pending for not giving the position back that he gained off the track. At least Jolyon Palmer thought so
That was fun. If you like double moves, moves under braking, track limit violations, etc
Man, I rally would have liked to see how that battle between verstappen and Norris turned out on track. Max is defending too aggressive. But even if Lando would have come through, he would have had to make up his track limits penalty. This is really disappointing.
I agree. I am a Max fan but not when he drives like this. I really hoped the “old” Max was a thing of the past but it seems he pops back up under extreme pressure.
Nah, Max never matured. He just stopped being challenged. If he’s challenged, he reverts to full asshole. “I win or we crash.”
"Heads I win, tails you lose."
What. An. Ending.
Great race imo. Bummer the fight at the front ended in trouble like that, but it was very exciting!
Well the stewards won't be deciding one and two now.
Well Oscar, will you take the gift Lando died for?
Toto on the radio lmao
This friendship is officially tested.
Could be a spicy rest of the season
They should stream tonight, for the drama.
Oh my god, did they just gift Russell a win.
WTF is going in
Russell win?
What happened to Red Bull pit crew
Max - 6+ sec pitstop
Perez -8+ sec pitstop
Unlucky for max that a bolt wouldn't fasten and then Norris was there so he couldn't drive off.
Perez had a 5s penalty so 8s is decent considering.
Go get him Lando.
Piastri is doing great! Really showing his skill!
Love the drama between Gasly and Ocon. Glad to see some fighting on track too!
I think I'm just gonna take a nap. Wake me up when someone calls a safety car.
I hope you woke up for the last stint
I actually walked to the supermarket to get some chips and stuff and when I returned the gap was 0.5.
3 stopper yet somehow nothing happening on track
Well that just took a really sharp turn
Norris and Verstappen = Rosberg and Hamilton, but in different teams.
Verstappen has turned into Hamilton and Lando has taken his role
Lewis became conflict avoidant in his later years, Max is willing to crash still. Different styles of defending.
Max's defending today was just 'oh let me veer left so you crash into me'
Very entertaining combined with Lando's "you can't react to my move!" complaining.
Hamilton with a rookie mistake.
Death, taxes and Norris fucking up the start...
He is still learning how to start from the front.
The Hans Zimmer anthem was a banger!
