George Russell has won the Austrian Grand Prix at the Red Bull Ring after inheriting the lead when Verstappen and Norris lots out in the battle for the lead 10 laps from the end. Piastri saved the day for McLaren in second place while Sainz completed the podium for Ferrari.
IDK maybe or sandbags are sheeding...InsaneX_Badger wrote: ↑30 Jun 2024, 15:19Been away from the forum last few weeks. Any reason why the gap between Max and the rest has gotten bigger again? Track suits the red bull more?
Why? Rules are same for everybody...
Which is funny as the track usually lends good racing with the DRS being everywhere. Wonder if the degradation is so high that they can't push without killing the tyres.
I'd say all these regs have done is make the procession more punched up, compared to how it used to be.
Have you ever seen Verstapen getting a penalty??InsaneX_Badger wrote: ↑30 Jun 2024, 15:38Any update on the Max and Lando pit stop? Only thing that can save the race lead
Tbh it was close but it was fine. Just move onAMG.Tzan wrote: ↑30 Jun 2024, 15:40Have you ever seen Verstapen getting a penalty??InsaneX_Badger wrote: ↑30 Jun 2024, 15:38Any update on the Max and Lando pit stop? Only thing that can save the race lead
He wasn’t getting penalties for way worse things than this…
It did seem that the DRS trains were made worse when in race engine mode switching was banned. Monza certainly seemed to suffer.GrizzleBoy wrote: ↑30 Jun 2024, 15:40I'd say all these regs have done is make the procession more punched up, compared to how it used to be.
But it's still a procession, with people scared to push because of tyres and most changes happening via strategy even if cars behind are a couple tenths faster than those in front.
Also, tracks that used to be at least looked forward to due to their reputation for lots of action and passing ability, are now procession races too.
