Massive implications for the championship. In my opinion, both were too aggressive on the opening lap, but Lewis missed the apex there, got too much understeer and clipped Max, who left enough space. So predominantly Lewis's fault. I don't think misjudging the corner entry qualifies as a racing incident.

I’m against all racing incident penalties. And I genuinely would be saying the same the other way round. It was bloody exciting whilst it lasted and I hope we see more of the same going forward.

I agree Max being healthy is the most important part, of course.

Yeah - but it's Silverstone and I just didn't expect them to be too harsh to him at Silverstone. 10 Seconds is better than nothing, I guess.
Eco Posted July 18, 2021 Posted July 18, 2021 PU issues for Charles. Damn, Hamilton is going to win this race despite the penalty and taking how his biggest challenge.

I mean, I don't think the penalty should have been more severe. He made a mistake, but it was not some massively dangerous or a premeditated move, so while it's unfortunate for Max, that's just what happens sometimes... What I don't like is that the teams are allowed to work on the car during the red flag. Should be parc ferme by default, imo.
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted July 18, 2021 Subscriber Posted July 18, 2021 Ferrari and McLaren with a genuine chance to have a pop at Mercedes here and win the race. Maybe Mercedes and Red Bull should always start the race with a 10 second penalty .

Gives them a free pit which is rather shit, or lucky if you're Hamilton and have some damage.
nudge Posted July 18, 2021 Posted July 18, 2021 Max was released from the medical center, but was feeling light-headed, so going to the hospital for the CT scans.

Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted July 18, 2021 Subscriber Posted July 18, 2021 Looks good for Leclerc now. I just have a horrible feeling Ferrari are going to fuck it up but hopefully they've just got it out of their system with that Sainz stop. Lot of mechanics feeling the heat down there today.
Eco Posted July 18, 2021 Posted July 18, 2021 Sainz with an awful pit stop. What is going on today, so many bad pit stops.
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted July 18, 2021 Subscriber Posted July 18, 2021 Shame Norris didn't fight that.
