Subscriber nudge+ 15,328 Posted July 19, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted July 19, 2020 Whoa, protests and investigations everywhere... Albon/RB summoned to the stewards for allegedly drying his starting grid spot. Renault officially launch another protest against Racing Point. Both Haas drivers under investigation for allegedly using driver aids during the formation lap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,390 Posted July 19, 2020 Author Administrator Share Posted July 19, 2020 What do teams have against Racing Point? Also, anyone else forget what they predicted then be quite happy they got something right? Like the Bonus Point question today was highest Ferrari to finish. I guessed 5-8th but totally forgot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber nudge+ 15,328 Posted July 19, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted July 19, 2020 Both Haas get 10 sec penalty each, meaning Magnussen falls down to P10 and Grosjean to P16. No penalty for Albon, it was deemed that RB personnel didn't attempt to dry his grid box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea of them gaining an unfair advantage by copying Mercedes designs for parts that according to regulations they are supposed to design themselves.

He'd make a great team boss one day, but I doubt that he's interested in that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, until FIA concludes its investigation. That's part of the protocol, if you want all of their results to be nulified in case the car is indeed deemed illegal, then you have to report them after each race.

Moderator Tommy 12,622 Posted July 19, 2020 Moderator Share Posted July 19, 2020 https://streamable.com/0tjmoo Wow, Kvyat asked three times if he could stop for slicks before the race starts and they completely ignored him. He could have scored points if he did. Assholes. Although they might wanted to escape the penalty Haas got today, but they still could have responded. Poor Daniil.

Kvyat could have boxed on his own accord and just tell the team he's coming in. That's a bit of a shite rule, to be fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,670 Posted July 20, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted July 20, 2020 Lewis was 7 seconds clear after 2 laps because Stroll was behind him and the gap only got bigger until he pitted in the last few laps, I know you guys are joking but it's probably true!
