Lando Norris had the best of afternoons at Mexico City, leading the race from start to finish and ending with a big advantage over second placed Charles Leclerc. Max Verstappen recovered to third while Oliver Bearman earned Driver of the Day by finishing 4th for Haas.
There’s no penalty for that anyways in today’s regulations. He sent it, had the front tyre well ahead of the mirror by the apex, and kept his car within track limits on the exit. Those are the rules the drivers wanted.Gillian wrote: ↑27 Oct 2025, 00:43Penalized Verstappen for what?

On another note, Oscar should be very happy, he´s lucky not to be 19 points behind right now
He’s clearly 4th before the braking zone and stays 4th. Make an effort.amritc1 wrote: ↑27 Oct 2025, 00:47https://x.com/CASKA50036909/status/1982 ... 0&ref_url=
Easily see how may places vestappen made. If he he braked and made that corner he would easily be 9th being generous. The stewards are useless,
Its not the first time Ive seen this happen and it has never been penalised anyway. Its entirely different from what Leclerc did as well!Badger wrote: ↑27 Oct 2025, 00:46There’s no penalty for that anyways in today’s regulations.

Ah okay. Not sure I agree on that either, but that is at least debatable. If I was a stewards I'd be happy to leave it as hard racing, no penalty for either as long as if Hamilton loses his time gained after cutting (just lift a little and let Verstappen come closer).Artur Craft wrote: ↑27 Oct 2025, 00:50The divebomb on LH, he was way too far behind(they even banged side by side, Max´s fault this time).

Well, if the rules are like that, then ok. I just don´t like the look of it. Maybe if he didn´t have LH´s car there on the outside holding him, he would have gone off track.
The drivers asked for “karting rules” which essentially means that if you dive up the inside and your front tyre is alongside or ahead of the defending driver’s mirror, you have the right to the corner on the exit (provided you stay within track limits). This does promote dives, so you get dives.Artur Craft wrote: ↑27 Oct 2025, 00:54Well, if the rules are like that, then ok. I just don´t like the look of it.

On another note, I just heard that Mclaren is sabotaging Piastri so much that they even managed to put magnets into his car so that he would be attracted to Baku´s armco on QLF and race. Poor Oscar.....
Not wearing tinted glasses but 10 seconds. Verstaptic was off at turn 1 and gained massive advantage, he needed to at least give back 5-6 places as he was no way going to make make the corner ( open your eyes). Then drove another driver off track by drive combining as he hats way always. So no way was that a 10 sec penalty.Gillian wrote: ↑27 Oct 2025, 00:54Ah okay.

Quite the rant but you're wrong and need to actually go and read up rules.amritc1 wrote: ↑27 Oct 2025, 01:04Not wearing tinted glasses but 10 seconds.

How many times has Verstappen done that and got 5 second penalty. Come on people why we
F1 Turin into a drama.
