Formula 1 Pirelli Gran Premio Del Made In Italy E Dell'emilia Romagna 2021Formula 1

What is it about Imola and crashing under the Safety Car?

 

[MagpieRacer]

It wasn't Mazepin's fault but obviously he just had to be involved in something.

Indeed. I'm sure there'll be some who say an intelligent person would have backed off as he was out of position anyway on the circuit but yeah its hard to attribute full blame to him really. Latifi probably wouldn't have seen him in the mirrors.

 

[PeterJB]

Russell 11th.

 

[Liquid]

Haas are just absolute hilarity.

EmbarHaasing.

 

[numbnuts70]

Schumi schoolboy error.

 

[Vinylshark]

Mazepin really didn't do anything wrong. He saw a car returning onto the track and tried to use that to his advantage for an easy position gain, like anyone else would do. Can't blame him for Latifi going all the way from the left to the right without racing speed.

 

[MagpieRacer]

Pretty sure Perez will cop a penalty there. Fairly sure you can't repass if you go off under safety car conditions. Not like the formation lap.

 

[Jimlaad43]

More cars have gone off on non-racing laps than in racing laps now.

Yeah, confused that Gasly and Ricciardo gave it back

 

[Liquid]

Surely Perez will be investigated?

It's basically what would have happened if Hamilton hadn't jumped on the brakes when Vettel was a moron in Canada 2019.

Sorry for blaming you Mazepin, but it's still ironic that he's the guy involved again.

 

[NotThePrez]

I'm not sure if anybody else saw it, but Max just had a nice little low-speed drift earlier.

 

[MagpieRacer]

Yeah, confused that Gasly and Ricciardo gave it back

That might even work in Perez favour if they slowed.

 

[Sum1s2pid]

Ricciardo with the huevos mas grandes. Nice.

 

[McLaren]

Max putting in fast laps. Wonder if the car's getting up to pace or he could be running his tires a bit hard to make distance.

 

[PaMu1337]

I think we already have more overtakes than last year in the entire race

 

[Skygrasper550]

Those wet tires don't seem to be working well for Gasly at the moment.

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

"the steering wheel is moving by itself"

Sounds like a driver aid.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Bottas is unable to drop Russell's Williams

 

[PaMu1337]

That might even work in Perez favour if they slowed.

He's under investigation for it now

Edit: 10 sec stop/go even

 

[McLaren]

Perez's penalty going to be a 5-second? Or does he have to concede positions back?

Edit* Oh, that was a quick answer by the race directors, lol.

 

[Famine]

Bottas is unable to drop Russell's Williams

Is he doing it on purpose? Only he knows...

 

[MUSC4EVER]

10 second stop go penalty.

 

[NotThePrez]

Seems like the Red Bull is a solid wet weather car. The Ferrari seems ok as well, though it takes longer for the tires to heat up and is prone to understeer. Not a great performance from Bottas at the moment.

Checo under investigation.

Edit: Well that was a quick penalty.

 

[Skygrasper550]

Checo just got a 10-sec stop and go penalty.

 

[Sum1s2pid]

Ooh, Russell P10.

 

[Touring Mars]

For a driver of Perez's experience, that was inexplicably stupid.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Alpha Tauri's just going backwards...

 

[Liquid]

For a driver of Perez's experience, that was inexplicably stupid.

I can only think that he was in "formation lap mode" in his head wherein he would have been allowed to take the places back.
