As I understand if the race has been red flagged before the first lap is completed it will be a reset. I remember this as a rule for years, I think Spa 1998 was like this and then you could get in the T-Car if yours was wrecked.

It means 0 laps completed and race restarts, targeting to complete all laps. Currently, the live timing shows 2nd lap running!

Correct that's not happening otherwise Russell could start again, which he is not allowed too.

Roll hoop was completely shredded. He'd not have made it sans the halo.

And it would have been really gruesome...

That was indeed very scary, that it burned away before he got to the gravel.
Happy for the halo indeed !

I suspect the current "roll hoop" structure isn't as it was pre halo, meaning the halo is the new roll hoop, so the structure above it is just for performance (and non-safety regulations)

That's braindead if you ask me. It should've been mandated to be stronger with the increased overall weights, if anything.

Jesus...

Strange, because we are in Lap 2 so the first lap is completed

If the race deemed not started, then Russell should be allowed to start!

Gasley going for a space that wasn't there

Space was there and then Russell chose to close it.

Yes, but its not a race restart, they are going back one lap.

It's dumb, but that's what they're doing.

It’s taken from when the flag is thrown I believe.

That's very true what the sky guys are saying. If Max switches to the Med does that mean he no longer has to follow that rule?

Yeh, he used the soft. I see no reason why it shouldn't count.

HAM, lol. I guess the toilets must be near the Aston garage

[chrisc90]

I cant see why crossing any sectors or beams is relevant, because the race order cant change under a red flag

You mean Gasley saw a space wasnt significantly along side. There wasn’t space he should have backed out

nope, it makes all the sense to me, remember the pre halo rule and the stick they used from the roll hoop towards the nose of the car and the stick wasn't supposed to touch the driver helmet, well, now that measure is unnecessary, halo is above the helmet from all possible angles, so the safety structure above is no longer necessary, and everyone would be very pleased to get that weight off of that high spot
