Ahh, Brazil. You never fail to deliver
Saves you some calculating with all those zeroesWell, FACC and GTPFF1 will be fun this week.
Hulkenberg probably also has a ton of damage, so not sure if he's gonna continueWhose out altogether then? Leclerc, Kmag, Albon, potentially Piastri and Danny Ric?
Might even be starting grid order.So if Piastri and Ricciardo get repaired, they get back to wherever they were when the SC was called, right? As the red flag was called in the middle of lap 2, the end of lap 1 (start of pitlane) defines the restart order
It's the last completed lap, right? They completed lap 1 behind the SC, and then did another lap behind SC where the Red Flag was called.Might even be starting grid order.
Only reason they're on lap 3 is because they had to park at end and of pit lane for red flag.
Whew, woke up late and turned on the TV, thinking I missed a chunk of the race, but I see a red flag and carnage replays.
So the only car out is... Leclerc, yeah?
Albon and Magnussen as well.Whew, woke up late and turned on the TV, thinking I missed a chunk of the race, but I see a red flag and carnage replays.

And Albon, and Magnussen...So the only car out is... Leclerc, yeah?
Ah, thank you. Still trying to sort out my brain with some coffee.Not just him.
A Haas and a williams
Edit: FIA just clarified that Piastri and Ricciardo can only start from the pitlane
Ok so they're considered 1 lap behind now, even though that was an uncompleted red flag lapIt's curious though with Piastri and Ricciardo. If they start from pitlane now, they will have driven 1 fewer lap than the rest of the field, yet in ranking they should be on the same lap
They stopped in the garage after lap 1, the Red Flag came out on lap 2 so yeah they retired a lap before everyone else.Ok so they're considered 1 lap behind now, even though that was an uncompleted red flag lap
But on a red flag it's supposed to go back to the order of the last completed lap, right? That's lap 1, which they both completed.They stopped in the garage after lap 1, the Red Flag came out on lap 2 so yeah they retired a lap before everyone else.
I suspect you missed Mexico then.Very interesting to see Danny keeping up with the McLaren while being in the worst car.

That's usually for when a race finishes. They actually go back to the last timing line with a complete order, which could be Sector 2 in this case, for restarts. Everyone else has driven an extra lap of the track than Piastri and Ricciardo.But on a red flag it's supposed to go back to the order of the last completed lap, right?

It's a bit of a weird case, and I don't know what exactly the rules say on this.
Being 1 lap behind sounds like the right thing to do, but what I remember from these rules I think it's not what's supposed to happen
Fair enough, I'm pretty sure they would have crossed the first timing line before the red flag. Then it sounds right to have the 1 lap defecitThat's usually for when a race finishes.

They were both in their garage's when the red flag came out.Fair enough, I'm pretty sure they would have crossed the first timing line before the red flag. Then it sounds right to have the 1 lap defecit
I know they were, but it's a matter of where the rest of the field was. If the rest of the field only crossed the end of lap line, the last sector would be equal for everyone (end of lap 1)They were both in their garage's when the red flag came out.
