The Hulk incident was Australia.

Quote:
After Red Bull driver Max Verstappen crossed the line eight seconds ahead of McLaren’s Lando Norris to win the 71-lap race, “a large group” of spectators made their way onto the circuit.

This occurred at Turn 1 during the chequered flag lap while cars were still on track. Although there were no injuries, the stewards summoned race officials due to the serious safety concerns.

In line with a similar incident at the end of the 2023 Australian GP, when Nico Hulkenberg’s car was also on track in an unsafe condition due to having possible electrical discharge, Brazilian GP officials must conduct a thorough investigation and take remedial action in time for the 2024 race.

By 30 January 2024, race organisers must “present a formal remediation plan to the FIA that adequately addresses the serious concerns”.

Ah, in the article I had read, they mentionned Australia too as an example where spectators stormed the track too soon. I must have mixed it up.

Yeah the camera shot and chequered flag positioning made it look like Perez clinched it, I still wasn't sure where the finish line actually was until your post lol. I know F1 doesn't have close finishes very often, but making it clear where the finish line is should be a fairly fundamental thing in a race of any sort (other series, cycling, athletics, horse racing, you name it, they all seem to manage it...)


And remember, here at talladega Interlagos, the finish line is not in the usual position in the tri-oval as you'd expect at other tracks, it's around the tri-oval and partway down to turn 1. :innocent:

I always was under the impression the transponder in the finish line that has to log the positions every lap has to be a different one than the start transponders that has to detect jump starts and grid position errors etc, so the two lines always have to be different,...

Edit: just to add that my nitpicking above should not tarnish how amazing this was either way :lol: I mean give F1 fans the finish of the decade and let them find ways to complain about it :beard:


Same, I was aware I was playing right into the stereotypical grumpy TBK-er but posted anyway :lol: Was still an amazing finish.
