L1 T1 incidents have always been treated more leniently, this isn't new. If RUS took out SAI on lap 4 he would have got stronger punishment.
Pretty sure the drivers agreed to this, they don't want to have to tip toe around lap 1 when everyone is grouped together.

So Max avoids getting his Q1 lap deleted. And Sergio avoids getting penalized for not getting damage repaired. Another strong weekend for F1
There is also pretty strong evidence they penalised GAS solely because he criticised them in Japan.
Almost the entire grid, >10 car lengths behind. Not to mention of course Singapore where Checo did it three times and still came out with effectively no penalty.

This is getting pretty wild now. The last 12 months of F1 have been by far the worst officiating in any sport.

Try to figure out what roughing the passer is this year.

Apparently the protest against Alonso and Alpine was made and accepted after the deadline for protests. What a mess

Might as well protest the Singapore decision again against Checo. Deadlines are just like rules I guess, made to be broken.Apparently the protest against Alonso and Alpine was made and accepted after the deadline for protests. What a mess

I don't see how you can make a 10 second penalty turn into 30 for a non-existent pit stop. So now we have stewards acting like little children, making things up as they go along. The chance for a black flag could have been flown, but it wasn't. Getting teams to lodge complaints well after the race isn't a good precedent.
Next week, Alonso will have to drive with a duck in his car and Russell will have to play Calvinball to make up the lost ghost points until the Destructor's Championship is reset to M and 13.

If nothing we watch is real any more and everything can be incessantly protested, what's the point of watching?
Also whither protests over Verstappen's track limits in Q1? Although you'd have thought - if it was what it looked like - Mercedes/Ferrari would have protested it on principle at the time

All protests are equal, but some are more equal than others.

Haas got flags for a lot less, I even mentioned it twice at the time during this thread. I think although the penalty for Alonso is harsh, Haas were fully within their rights to make that protest, and the FIA need to hand this penalty out more stringently and quickly in future to any car with that loose endplate.

Especially as it has often seemed like Haas have been getting targeted with the meatball this year despite plenty of other instances of loose or missing parts
I don't believe they have been getting targeted, but they seem to always get one despite multiple cars being involved.

Thanks to FIA flip-flopping, Alonso's 7th place has been reinstated after the haas appeal was revoked.
