AMG 227 Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Prema on a garbage strategy. Should've told Mick about the possible 5 sec penalty and told him to stay within 5 seconds of Mezzepin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eco 3,008 Posted August 29, 2020 Author Share Posted August 29, 2020 I can't believe Mazepin got a penalty there. That takes all the fun out of racing...if you are going around the outside, it's only normal that driver on the inside protects his line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber nudge+ 15,325 Posted August 29, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted August 29, 2020 Deserved win for Tsunoda. A strong race by Mick, good pace and managed his tyres well, it's annoying how his race was compromised by a bad pit stop again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always tough decision in situations like that, but Tsunoda was in front, so Mazepin had no claim for the racing line there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber nudge+ 15,325 Posted August 29, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted August 29, 2020 Should also get another penalty for sending the shield flying into Tsunoda. Prick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber nudge+ 15,325 Posted August 29, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted August 29, 2020 Mick now has the most podiums this season. Also gutted for Vips missing out on points, but finishing P11 after starting from P21, with no experience with the car and missing qualifying due to technical issue is very impressive.

Yeah - that was a Grade A dick move there. Still don't think he should have gotten the penalty as I never saw any angle to suggest he had lost the lead, and thus he had the right idea. I think this is another instance of the FIA being too involved. Oh well, no love lost as he proved that at the end of the day he is just a prick, so fuck him.

Eco 3,008 Posted August 29, 2020 Author Share Posted August 29, 2020 Also, all around good day for Prema. Despite mucking up the only 2 pits stops they had, the cars performed well and both drivers are in the top 4 and caught up with Illot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well he has already received his first, so we will see about the second. I doubt it was a case of them not telling him unless they were worried about tires.

Mazepin was sulking about the penalty, claiming that he was ahead of Tsunoda so he didn't do anything wrong, but the thing is, he wasn't ahead of him at all. At best, they were side by side, with Tsunoda's nose marginally ahead when Mazepin turned into him. I agree that those decisions are too inconsistent and it could have well be judged to be a racing incident, but then Mazepin is a twat anyway. Surprised he didn't punch anyone this time.

So, I see that Tsunoda is ahead, but he is also turning into Mazepin at this moment so that even if Maz doesn't move, they will collide. I just can't think this is anything but a racing incident. But Maz is a prick so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will not collide if Mazepin gives him space instead of opening his steering and forcing Tsunoda off the track Personally, I hoped they'd both crash out gifting Mick the win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah both crashing out would have been find with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
