A stoppage halfway in the race due to an accident for Kevin Magnussen couldn't prevent Max Verstappen to win the Mexican Grand Prix in front of an ecstatic crowd. Lewis Hamilton was overjoyed with second place while Charles Leclerc completed the podium for Ferrari.
It seems you have forgotten about Monza already. Ferrari has already done it, with 20 seconds out of bounds or something thereabouts and they came out penalty free.dialtone wrote: ↑29 Oct 2023, 02:48Classic. Introduced a max laptime to avoid games on track only to introduce them at pit lane exit and give nobody penalties. Let's wait till Ferrari does it the first time for a 4 race ban and 3 place grid drop for the next 60 years worth of GP starts. All of which will be adorned by countless RBR fans saying that when Max clogged the pit exit it was different because he was going 1kph so technically he wasn't stopped.
Same bs as when half the grid was parked before the last chicane in canada when Vettel's Ferrari was coming through on a fast lap, nobody punished.

clown organization more so than Ferrari's pitwall.
The problem is the FIA is either run by a bunch of cowards or a bunch of corrupt individuals.
Ferrari has abused the minimum laptime agreement in 2 of the last 7 GPs and got away with it. They may have had convenient excuses, but they still got away with it. Nevermind the driving standards in Monza which they also got away with...I think you can agree the FIA has been more than partial toward Ferrari as of latedialtone wrote: ↑29 Oct 2023, 02:48Classic.

I didn't forget about Monza... Or Suzuka or any other case in which cars were called in the stewards for max lap time violation and in ALL cases nobody was punished because you can check their onboard where they are letting 5+ cars through.
They just made it officially accepted that you can clog the pitlane in the last minutes of quali to ruin outlap and quali attempt of the drivers behind you.
That would force their hand to make them define what you're allowed to do properly
That's one of the many problems with the fIA, they are reactive, never proactive!
That's odd then .. ignoring yellow while passing someone is 10places, not slowing down is zero places.
They explained that at least it is safer than happening on track. Which I agree. Not ideal yet, but a bit better.
20 cars times 5 to 6 second gap does not fit on a track of 78 sec laptime.dialtone wrote: ↑29 Oct 2023, 02:48Classic.
