Depends on what the the penalty is. He finished well over 5 second in front of Russell. Gasly, was next, almost 30 seconds behind. So I doubt he'll get a 30 second penalty. The other thing is, they're allowed 3 warnings but they never got any warning so how does that play into it?
Haas's proposal is 18x 5 seconds added to his race time. That is eighteen 5 second penalties. He will be back at the race start in Japan when they are done counting . Since that is the only framework we have for the penalties, I can't see anything else applying.diffuser wrote: ↑06 Nov 2023, 17:26Depends on what the the penalty is.

Also iirc, Aston Martin got a lot of people hosed in Austria, and it didn't matter if you hadn't been warned. You got the penalties that the regs said you should have.
.FIA appoints F1 Commissioner to help lead improvements
The FIA has appointed an F1 Commissioner to help with its strategies and improvements in grand prix racing, Motorsport.com has learned.
Former F1 journalist Dieter Rencken, who has been working as an advisor to FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem for several months,
will take up the role with immediate effect.
It is understood that Rencken will report directly to Ben Sulayem, and he has been tasked with assisting in the formulation
and implementation of improvements for F1 on behalf of the governing body. The FIA is a separate organisation to F1's commercial rights holders FOM.
He will furthermore help with discussions over the framing of the new Concorde Agreement, the document by which F1 is run,
which is expected to come into force in 2026.
Huge news. GM as an engine supplier is big & a better deal than Ford which will only do the battery side of the Red Bull Powertrains !
Does this mean that Andretti has to find an engine partner for the seasons from 2025 - 2027?
Yes and Alpine doesn't seem to be interested anymore now that they know Andretti is just using them as a placeholder.
I agree, think this makes it harder for them to come in for 2026. nobody is gonna want to be their stop gap.
