That penalty for Vainio was bullshit, he didn't gain anything there.

He made a personal best last split with the yellows. It doesn't matter if he gained advantage or not.

It really isn't.

Last week, most of the forum was unanimous in support for penalties for silly driving.

He then goes very fast under yellow flag conditions, with marshals and a tractor mere metres away.

The problem is the rules. Abt and Ellinas were barely slower, but slow enough, something like 0.2s. They were being stupid there too.

If Evans doesn't score tomorrow, where Abt needs to win right?

There's 10 points between them, so I guess 5th place assuming Evans doesn't score.

Oh, so he does need to win then I think. I'm sure the Maths genius in the booth will keep us updated...

If Evans doesn't score, Abt has to win. Coming 2nd wouldn't be enough even if Abt got 2 points for the Fastest Lap. They would be equal on points but Evans has more wins.

If Abt wins, Evans has to finish 7th or higher (unless he sets the fastest lap) to become champion. An 8th place (=1 point) for Evans would give Abt the title as the German has more 2nd places.

I hope I got that right...

Nice to see you're happy.................



Recorded the race last night... or so I thought, turns out it was some crappy tennis, needless to say I am not surprised Mitch DNF'd, just his kind of luck
