I thought this was going to be policed better?
It was.

Perez did a second lap and improved.

Every driver that did not improve got their time deleted.
That’s not how it works. #-o

They don’t say ‘oh we’ll just wait and see’ you need your time deleted and it’s deleted there and then. Not eventually after siting on it for 10 minutes

That's the first run in Q1, he did another one.
Irrelevant. His time wasn’t deleted. So much for new stricter rules.

KevMag's lack of recent race experience showing with two lots of outbraking himself.
If you are more fortunate than others, build a larger table not a taller fence.

The lack of slipstream effect seems apparent though.

Indeed. Even with DRS Hamilton is struggling to catch the Ferrari.

In a F1 car. He was racing IMSA last year. He got more seat time / race experience last year than any F1 driver.
