If he had driven reasonably, he would have already been through the complex and been completely out of the way!
Totally agree. He never should have been there at the first place. You'd expect the team would have told him to speed up though.
The thing that I just don't understand from Tsunoda is that there was a perfectly clear straight right after that corner where most people were letting faster cars through. I guess that was just down to inexperience or bad team communication.
Yeah, I did mention earlier, I wonder if he thought about trying to give Max a tow on that very straight?

He didn't say he did it on purpose did he?

He said Max took Hamilton out, which is 100% what happened.
.
Yes, he said he did it on purpose.

Just like in Monza we will see Max take out Hamilton because no points for both is a win for him.

Helmut Marko just having a word with Gasly on the grid on Sky F1 just now. I wonder what he said to him?

interesting that Newey just mentioned that Red Bull's problem with the rear wings is not due to the kerbs or bumbs, but because of the higher speed compared to Monaco or Hungary, where it's otherwise used. So sounds like there's basically nothing they can do about it

“And to think, 2 years ago you weren’t good enough, best of luck today Pierre”, maybe?

So he is claiming regular use has caused the cracks?

Actually there is. They can go a bit slower Image

It would be a significant plot twist if RBR fell down the order because they had to protect the rear wing.
