When a refs assistant holds up the board showing how much time, it indicates the minimum time that will be added. Any issues during the shown added time are judged by the ref in case more time is needed. As already said, some things are fixed, others are discretionary.

If you had all read my post which was just two posts after I said 'I can't see any interest', it makes things pretty damn clear.

People pick up on one post and ignore one straight after it. I can't help that.

I'm fact Covalent, it was a response to you....

I was asking a question in not only an aggressive, but also rude way now. My humblest apologies to everyone on this forum. I will do my best to explain everything 100% clearly in future. Of course, when someone miss quotes me by removing the 'I' from a sentence, that doesn't help. People could inqui...

I clearly have no idea what constitutes aggressive then.

Perhaps people need to realise the difference between aggression and despair.

Please don't use my posting history on FE against future posts. Each post is its own. Despite my feelings on FE, I have watched every single race either live, or recorded in full. That's probably more than most on this forum. I said I would give it a chance and still am. I don't think it's a patch o...

Yes, surely significantly upsides remote control cars would be more entertaining. About the size of a Go Kart but looking like a proper single seater.

I guess that's missing the point though.

Implementing team orders will be entertaining.

I, that's 'I' can't see any interest! Blimey, how hard can that be to understand? Others CAN be interested, I don't think I will be...

As for hostility, as someone else pointed out on my behalf, it wasn't me being remotely hostile.

Equally, I never said nobody else would find it interesting. I was hoping that on a forum I could air my own views. Ok, I interpreted it falsely when you said there would be no interest in racing without human input...? No need to interpret anything when I actually said the following. 'I can't see ...

You're already doing a good job of putting me off even more.

My point is that I can't see any interest in cars racing without human input. What's the point? Radio Control car racing is more interesting because there is human input which can lead to mistakes. If a mistake is made in AI controlled cars, it's down to a programming error! How exciting!

Would be good if they have mannequins in the cars that can raise the middle finger if they're cut up!

I can watch my sons motorsport games on his Xbox 1 or PC if I want to watch AI cars racing! That's like saying you can watch your son's multiplayer motorsport games if you want to watch people racing. :) Except multiplayer games are full of numpties who can't drive. Aside from that, I think you get...

OMG. Just when I thought I couldn't get more excited about motorsport, they go and bring out a driverless series.

Lord of the Rings was hyped but was amazing, all three of the films. JJ's Star Trek films are brilliant imo, therefore I expect to be equally impressed with the new Star Wars. Hype is sometimes misplaced, but at least the trailers have gone down well it seems. So far, no Jar Jar Binks replacement ha...

To be fair, losing a sponsor that can accurately record McLaren lap times is no bad thing at the moment!

Very very very very very.

F1 simply needs to remove the need to be the most technically advanced formula and replace that with the need for the best drivers in the world fighting it out in fast, but tricky cars. I have never watched F1 thinking how lucky it was that they had all those electronic gadgets and fiddly aero bits....

Not much I can really say about this. Puts this F1 lark in perspective.

Thinking for the nation and indeed the world as a whole.

I initially thought this was a joke thread, but it seems not. Vettel's not the first driver with a puncture or damage to cut corners and I daresay he won't be the last. I should have thought the priority for any driver in such circumstances would be to get back to the pits as quickly as possible wh...

So here we go again. Another fine example of how the dollar/pound/Euro or whatever signs in the people who run the sport get in the way of those that actually want to the sport to succeed.

Well, Hamilton just made a short but amusing appearance on a Star Wars sketch for the Children in Need evening. I am sure it will be all over YouTube very soon. Worth a watch.

he should of been penalized. he cut the circuit. simple as. best way too look at the situation. and all situations in these cases. would he of done the same thing if there were gravel traps there???

Good news is that it's northern France so easy for me to travel to. Bad news, it's an airfield so ups and downs will probably be somewhat lacking.

Here's hoping it has a simply massive straight.

Tilke bashing is boring. He does not decide where a circuit is built. He does not decide on the track having to have extensive run off areas, he does not decide ANY safety features. In fact, I believe he was asked to ensure that no future circuit had a corner that was a demanding on the cars as the ...

It's not just Prema. I'm not sure what the fuss is about either as this has to be one of the most irrelevant of rule infringements ever! Do I think Seb should have been penalised (unless able to prove he was doing it to to prevent leaving on-track debris, which is unlikely) - YES. But the stewards ...

Those cars have very little grip, extremely low downforce + super tight street tracks, bumpy as hell --> more drama Antonio Da Costa said that a Formula E car is actually even harder than a modern F1 in terms of pure driving.

I think there is a way that people that are complaining that he should have not been allowed to cut the corners could prove they are correct. They could post lots of links showing that lots of different people within the sport were complaining too.

Depends on the track surface, but I get your point.

Still don't see why this is being argued though!

I was under the impression that all things being equal, Rossi could have been faster that Lorenzo in the race. The problem he was was that in all likely hood, he used up the ultimate grip on his tyres working his way through to fourth. The fact he pretty much matched the pace of the leading 3 after ...

I remember this being talked about a while ago on the 'comments/mods' thread on the main forum and it was v interesting.
