This is the biggest BS penalty in recent memory.
Not penalizing the guy who refused to stop his car and penalizing the guy who wants to 'avoid' being behind the stricken car in fear of debris ?
As BS as it gets. No wonder the stewards aren't paid. Might as well pickup some random methhead tramp from under a bridge and ask him to steward a weekend.

Could just enforce the use of pit limiter during red flags, would simplify a lot of things.

F1 have always been selective who gets penalties Fernando complain about being spanish among brits steward perez and lewis complain too ,some drivers gets treated with kids glove.yuki quali was not a disaster i expected him to be knocked out in q1 but time he spent on garage and penalty does not help.lando was very quick i wonder what happend.

Usually when driver breaks rule during practice they get a fine for like speeding in the pitlane,blocking other drivers you dont get a penality ,so how does yuki end up with a penality for something that happend in prac thats not how the game is played.

Red Bulls 336km/h speed trap vs Russell 329km/h.
Could make things easier for Max during the race.

I am not sure whether the source of the above data is accurate, when I look at the lap plots, the numbers are less drastic - 335 and 332 ; a DRS diff of 3kph and not 7kph.

Today is lead or ban at T1 ?

Spot on

Hated Russel's little quip "well I have a few more penalty points" after qualifying, isn't he implying he will just resort to dirty tactics because he can afford the penalty points?

Verstappen himself is to blame for finding himself in such a situation, it would be stupid not to take advantage of it.

A race ban coming with another penalty point. Can Max afford it?

[Vettel165]

Who cares, if Max doesnt start winning in the next races, its season over. The pressure after Barcelona is already off, we are just an outsider this year. If nothing drastic changes of course. Max only cares about winning, and I really admire him for that.

Jokes aside, this is not a race that you win at T1. It will be hotter right ? so Mercedes could struggle over the distance, and you can overtake here. There's no point for Max to risk everything at T1, it will important to keep position on Oscar though.

Easiest way to keep Oscar behind, is by passing Russell tho.

Exactly. Clearing Russell early is important to create a gap to McLarens, not because of Russell himself.

I took it from here (from the race thread, not sure how reliable this is)
