I'm just saying Norris was like he was really trying to be a douche.
Hamilton was run of the mill "oops".
Still, running into someone intentionally is really bad, Norris also reported he might have damage. Leclerc slammed on the brakes, downshifted 4 times and then turned into Norris, shouldnt be getting that upset especially when its just practice

100% should be a penalty for Leclerc. You cant retaliate like that for any reason doesn't matter what then other driver does.

You may say this, but i hope Norris doesn't walk freely from this, this was the worst "i don't even care" blocking i've seen ever.

Maybe 10 positions Leclerc, 5 Norris.

'You must be on something if you think norris deserves anything, Its blatant road rage from Leclerc

Because the guy retaliated he doesn't get anything for his previous blatant foul? Where does it say that on the rule book.

Impeding in fp3 is never a penalty or reprimand. And Norris was never dangerous in any way

5 places for Leclerc and nothing for Norris

Don't be absurd. It's free practice, blocking isn't an issue especially not to the point where someone thinks it's ok to then drive into a competitors car

I would assume there are different fuel loads in play here? the time difference is big between Russell and the other teams, even to his teammate

Hamilton, Norris deserve some kind of punishment for blocking. Stroll and LeClerc deserve actual grid slot drops.

I'll say Norris leasurely drove 3 corners in the racing line before pulling to the side, a new record.
And on an outlap, no less
And they call it a stall. A STALL!

Wasnt anywhere near close to 3 corners. 1 yes. 3 no chance.

Charles only got close to him on the left hander before the contact.

And everybody is saying it's FP, so it's alright to be the biggest douche around.

Isn't it quite normal to experience blocking especially on the final runs when everyone is on track?

It's not ideal but it happens because there are 20 cars all trying to do different things

4,5 guaranteed depends if you count that kink, the track does.
