imagine if they find many years from today in a locked Toto's drawer emails detailing plans to win the championship with ludicrous strategies?

I would laugh my ass off for a whole year

Aston seems to claim there is enough fuel left so expecting a protest

they should spray fuel into the stewards face and set on fire to see if it's good enough

how about put them to drive the cars since they want the main role?


They saw how much action FE stewards have been getting recently and the jealousy kicked in...

To be honest it was pretty classy of Alonso to stay on the sidelines while Ocon was celebrating with his team, and wait to congratulate him.


Alonso changed so much after leaving F1 last time.
He is more of a team worker right now, before he want all the spot light on him.


WEC turned him into a team player and the Indy 500 polished it.

Lewis' lead out to 8 points as a result. Also drops Seb out of the top 10 in the standings and Aston to 7th behind AT

However, on the plus side, it takes Williams into double digits in points for the first time since 2017. It also puts Sainz 3 points ahead of Leclerc which is...interesting

Fucking worthless rule. The whole race was run like a shit show, rules wise. Especially the restart rules. Should have had all the cars on the grid, period.

Now this.

plus this is not a driver's mistake, but one from the team

why not dock points from constructor's championship or a fine instead?

I'm just wondering, what would have happened if Lewis took the pits before the second start? Would there be red lights or would everybody be cleared to race straightaway?

I'd guess there would have been red lights and the pit light would switch to green at the same moment the start lights go out?

Driver could have set leaner setting however. Guess they where too busy chasing Ocon to inform him to do it

Because the car was illegal. As much as I'm frustrated by this, the rules are the rules here - they've been in place for a while now and the teams are aware. Aston will be appealing: https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/aston ... n/6640826/

Well you know how it goes. Run into someone get 10-20s penalty. Not have enough fuel DQF. I mean how dare they to not have at least 1 liter left at the end
