RedBull ****ing over Sergio again this race..

RB bending over its No 2 driver? Say it ain't so!

Thinking about it, it was the only right choice to make. If it wasn't gonna be red, they needed the full wets. If it was red, precedent is that the order goes back one lap, so it wouldn't matter.

Sargeant still sitting on the other side of the track 🤣

It's not necessarily the lap before, so there's a bit more risk as they could go by sector. But it's not the worst call we've seen today.

The exact wording is this:
In all cases the order will be taken at the last point at which it was possible to determine
the position of all cars. All such cars will then be permitted to resume the sprint session
or the race.

I hope we get a word very soon.

Worst case would be 1 more hour, as the time runs out then

Waiting one more hour only to see a message "Race will not be resumed"

 

[PaMu1337]

10 minute warning to restart

 

[MSZ]

Race resumes in ten minutes.

 

[PaMu1337]

Restart on inters, not on full wets for once

Rolling start

 

[IforceV8]

Rolling start and I assume no DRS, they could have done this behind the SC 30 min ago and this would be the post race show.

 

[TumeK5]

Safety car for 2 laps, why? I know the order needs to be shuffled, but...

 

[PaMu1337]

Safety car for 2 laps, why?

To get a bit more water off the track, and get the drivers familiar with the conditions.

Restart on inters, not on full wets for once

Rolling start

Good addition to the race notes. No point making them start on a tyre they can never actually race on.

 

[AshenGraey]

What is the point of full wet tires when they just stop the race everytime they have an occasion to use them? They might as well not have them.

I mean, Japan 2014 is one time they screwed up with this so they seem gun-shy to try again.

Crofty was just talking how in one second, the full wet tires remove a bath tub-ful of water...let's defnitely not use them in wet conditions then!

That is what all of us have been wondering since years ago.

Edit: LMAO, PEREZ

 

[PaMu1337]

Seriously, what's going on this year? So many pitlane speeding incidents.

Russell out

 

[Sum1s2pid]

Sergio penalty and George puncture... man.

 

[Blitz24]

Norris cut Russell's tire.

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Gasly P3? It doesn't look like Perez is pulling a gap.

 

[Blitz24]

Sainz is holding up Hamilton and Norris enough that Perez might end up just falling to 4th.

 

[Blitz24]

1. Verstappan
2. Alonso (FL)
3. Gasly
4. Perez
5. Sainz
6. Hamilton
7. Norris
8. Albon
9. Piastri
10. Ocon

 

[TumeK5]

1. Verstappan

I can see how dominant he is.

 

[Bosso]

Wow Norris nearly got Hamilton there. 0.023 secs.

 

[Dennisch]

Quality race. More of these please.

 

[MagpieRacer]

Good final 7 laps.

7 constructors in the top 8 finishing positions.

 

[Blitz24]

Tsunoda toppled 3 spots on the final lap. Lawson finished 13th.

 

[PaMu1337]

P13 for Lawson, ahead of his teammate. And that's after getting a 10s penalty. Otherwise kept out of trouble in tricky conditions.

A debut to be satisfied with
