Gasly has been called to the Stewards for speeding under a red flag!!!!! Seems fair to me. Irrespective of the rights and wrongs of the recovery, Gasly was going way to fast for waved yellows, safety car or red flag, especially given the conditions. I'm inclined to agree. Whilst the red flag may ha...

As I'm too lazy to do the maths, will Max be WDC if the race is cancelled and no points are awarded? How about half points?

Asphalt_World

So. If it's rather wet, you can't race. Race started on inters. What is the point of other tyres?

Asphalt_World

McLaren doesn't think the race will restart.

Tweet from Lando.

Wtf. How’s this happened!? We lost a life in this situation years ago. We risk our lives, especially in conditions like this. We wanna race. But this… Unacceptable.

Maybe this is a separate discussion topic but what should be the procedure for recovery vehicles? Either ensure the corcuit is fully clear first or, as has been stated here pretty often, incorporate slow zones? A slow zone would have helped, but really, wait until all cars are behind the safety car.

Asphalt_World

Regardless of how fast Gasly may have been going, there should never be a vehicle on the circuit when there is at least one car not in the line behind the safety car. It's never worth the risk.

Maybe inters should be more towards wets than they currently are, or just get rid of inters I think the teams should have been made to start on Wets. Inters were probably used because they thought all the cars would clear up quite a bit of the water within a few laps and they would be quicker. It's...

It appears that the entire pack of cars behind the safety car, went past the tractor.

Asphalt_World

Vehicle on track. F1 continues to show how inept it is.

Asphalt_World

what would the punishment have been if they had an accident and who would have been at fault for it Norris was the driver that had to take evasive action there's little doubt to who was at fault. Max was very lucky. But it's become standard for those in the leading cars to get away with such incide...

Just watching this on Sky F1 and at the fastest point of the long straight at Mugello, one of the 488s has speared off to the right, hit the wall and tumbled its way back onto the track. I was fearful for a moment but barely 30 seconds after the accident we saw the driver walking off the track. Asto...

I love how the FIA backs up its non-penalty penalty by saying that it follows precedent. When has precedent ever bothered them before?

Asphalt_World

This delay just makes me think they are all in a room apollo 13 style trying to get the RB numbers within budget Above is most definately a load of *Definitely True*, but honestly what on earth is the delay for. Fuel that fire FIA, muppets I guess that if they're worried about having to change the ...

I can't believe there can be many grey areas when it comes to the amount of money spent unless teams are outsourcing work to other companies and funding this though a totally different pot of money used by the team itself.

Asphalt_World

I guess another 5 days are needed for them to concoct a reason for not causing RB any distress.

Asphalt_World

I've said this for many years but I'll say it again. F1 need to get DORNA to sort them out. Their camera work and graphics used in MOTO GP are simply brilliant. F1 still has cameras on cars that can only be viewed post-race, as they don't transmit live images. F1 claim this is due to a lack of space...

A second vote for Max. Come on......

Asphalt_World

Has there ever been another GP where the reigning WDC & his predecessor, regarded as the fastest of their generation, were both so embarrasingly rubbish? This race was certainly more proof that there are and have been few true rain masters. If the car works, it works and this is the same in any con...

Asphalt_World

Remember, as ever, Horner knew nothing about this during the race itself.....

Asphalt_World

This is great. 'Although the track was wet in parts, we do not accept that the conditions were such as to make it impossible or dangerous for PER to have maintained the required less than 10 car length gap. Nevertheless, we took into account the wet conditions and the difficulties highlighted by PER...

Asphalt_World

Let me get this straight. Is Perez blaming the conditions for not keeping up with the safety car? Was he also trying to make the SC go faster? And didn't Horner say after the race that he knew of nothing yet the FIA say that they warned the team during the race?

Asphalt_World

Best ever victory, when you've only got 4 to choose from. He drove very well, but come on... Probably true though, he won two because Verstappen crashed and Mercedes messed up. The other was because Ferrari messed up. And this was because he got the best start and Max had a team mess up his qualify...

Asphalt_World

OK. Who voted for Max? Was it the epic start or his massive lock-up that put him in your top three?

Nobody. Seriously, I can't think of any driver who shone above all the rest. Some clearly drove badly, but nobody was above all the rest.

It's the Christian Horner show again.

Asphalt_World

That's useful. If Perez wins, they'll not give him a time penalty. If he gets passed by Charles, they can give him a 5-second penalty with no change to his position.

Asphalt_World

How quickly do drivers in fast cars forget what it was like to drive a slow car. GR complaining about Schumacher defending against him. MS is driving for a contract last year and will want to show everything he can.

Asphalt_World

Nothing against him as a person as he always comes across as a nice mane, but as a driver, this could be Perez's forth win and I just don't rate him as a driver who would have that many wins.

Asphalt_World

Staggered they are not saying that was Russell's fault.

Asphalt_World

Ooh. A graphic to show me who's in front of Charles whilst the leaderboard is on the screen too!

Asphalt_World

This really is amateur hour. GR just drove into Schumacher.

Why on the two safety car restarts today has there been massive gaps between the drivers?

It's a little risky to follow so close to the car in front when the track isn't dry so backing them all up isn't needed.

Asphalt_World

Not sure if Max braked half a meter too late there or 100m too late!!!!!

Asphalt_World

Right. We've had an SC and VSC. F1 are currently thinking of something else they can do with this one.
