Re: 2020 Russian Grand Prix Race Thread

That feels wrong to me. I've never seen that getting penalised in race. It's not something that's effected the race so it feels wrong it gets an in race penalty. My only thoughts are that maybe they really don't want to give him penalty points knowing the potential reprecutions. You haven't seen it...

Re: 2020 Russian Grand Prix Race Thread

Mercedes and "the greatest driver of our time" are making silly mistakes. There is no reason for Mercedes to tell Hamilton it is fine, and Lewis should also know on his own. Dumb.

Come on guys we should not be wasting so much of every race behind the safety car. Clear it up and get it going
Agreed. 1st lap chaos should lead to a Red Flag while they clean it up.
