RB using the Silverstone engine for qual and race


After the way they carried on anyone would have thought it was smashed into a bazillion pieces. So is it STILL $1.8 million in damage????

The engine went back to japan for checks, I imagine that whole proces wasn't cheap. Could well have cost more than if it was a write off, if we didn't have the 3 engine per year rule it would have gone directly into the garbage bin I think

this is by far one of the things I hate the most in today's rules, good old days when they used 3 engines per weekend at least

I can’t be the only one that’s reminded of the 70s low airbox run by ligier whenever I see the alpine from the front

I think Red Bull are comitting to a 2 stopper, to do what Lewis did last year. No point in starting on the mediums then.

In order to ensure that cars are not driven unnecessarily slowly on in laps during and after the end ofqualifying or during reconnaissance laps when the pit exit is opened for the race, drivers must staybelow 1:31.0 between the Safety Car lines shown on the pit lane map.


Got this from another forum so don’t take it for absolute truth. But if true Lewis should be receiving a penalty.

Arguably verstappen too btw unless they deem it believable he was forced to be this slow by Lewis.
