I thought so. Verstappen's time should not have counted as I was sure there was a double yellow as the accident happened before Max finished his lap.

Max's time deleted. All good.

Investigation?

My god whyyyy, he was flying.
It was maybe tenth or two ahead of Verstappen. If this laptime stays deleted we are quite lucky. I checked the onboard and didn't see an obvious yellow.
Man this is extremely lucky!!!

Lucky if he gets the penalty I expect him to.

There is another tenth or two that Lando has had over RedBulls in the last sector because they can't ride bumps. It would have been provisional pole.

Pretty poor by Oscar though, like come on. New tires, there's no excuse to go almost half a second slower than Q2 lap.

There should be an investigation though despite Verstappen's time getting deleted. He went full throttle on a double yellow and could have been an accident.

When looking at onboard, it looked to me like Verstappen lifted on the straight after and I didn't see flashing yellow boards (only flashing green after the crash). But it's hard to see really.

Did Max lift off or did he go full throttle cause I noticed he lifted after he passed the double wave yellows.

If the time was deleted due to yellows, then he's in trouble.

Ahh they just showed it, he did back off. But right at the last moment.

He lifted after the corner (when he realized that there was a crash). Yellow if it showed it showed when he turned into the corner. I think it would be unfair if he gets penalty.

I just hope his lap is not brought back.

Yes. They have it.
