2024 São Paulo Grand Prix - Interlagos, Nov 01 - 03

Would anyone really want to see a sporting penalty though? The race hasn’t even started. Silly.

Fully agree. Nobody did get an advantage or disadvantage.

FIA really has no clue how to run this sport...where the hell was safety car?

Safety car for what? This is more half the drivers not knowing the rules.

If you abort the start, you need to abort it. Everyone went over so everyone is to blame here. No matter eho did it first.

Did the green light come on eventually?

[stewie325]

Yea the entire grid would get a penalty since they all drove off eventually

Norris caused this mess by not knowing the rules.

In such a situation, the lead car is the de-facto safety car.

So he should have a penalty for this really..

You stop the race and give a red flag. Also there are radio comms. FIA has no clue how to run the race. If he is a safety car, then he should be allowed to circle the track... And everyone that went over the line breached the rules, no matter who was first to do it.

He's the de-facto safety car, but needs a green flag to start the second formation lap. He went too soon, and (some) others followed reactively. The lead car has more responsibility, and should be penalised here for not following protocol...

Drivethrough for Norris or nothing probably.

No inbetween.

[Slitch-nl]

Because of safety. It is the same as ignoring yellow flags

Not everyone, the last 5 or 6 waited for a green light

Perez was 3 meters ahead of his grid spot and got 5 seconds. Obviously they have some room to choose the penalty depending on circumstances.

You read the rule book?

[Szabi1112]

Lando caused it, some of the cars knew the rules. Penalty for all who went when the lights were yellow.

Tru. But why is only norris being investigated?

I guess they are viewing it as Norris was the lead driver and caused it

[search]

Half the grid would get penalties. No chance.

either just norris or all. everyone sooner or later followed norris.

Max and two or three others waited for the green light. Would not get a penalty

they waited, but it never turned green

[mwillems]

Interesting. He's not responsible for whether others know the rules though.

Let's see where it goes.

Rain coming down now.

[BosF1]

Aaaand it is raining hahahaa
