Second infringement deffo deserved at least a 5 second. First one, he should've been told to give the place to avoid a penalty, and that would've sufficed. But they tried to make amends for what happened in Austin, and f***ed it up again by going way overkill. How hard is it to hand out a fair penalty for wrong doing ?

Perez race was a mess from the start! He couldn't even park the car in the box for the starting grid.
All went down from there

His head has gone. He wasn’t even aware he had made a mistake
Just a fan's point of view

Lawson has RB material. Dirty, arrogant and a brat. Perfect for the place ...

Stewards have gone even harder on Max, adding penalty points

Perez salty tears level achieved: Alonso

:lol:

I quite enjoyed that, not gonna lie. He tried to squeeze in a place where a car barely fits (if at all), and if the other guy tries it, god forbid ! Solid logic right there.
He can be salty all he likes, but being in a Red Bull and even being in a position (through your own failure) to have to resort to hail mary moves to overtake an RB is sad.

That he performed this poorly in front of his home crowd actually makes me feel sorry for him though. I've personally never ever believed since 2010 that the Red Bull second driver gets the same car as the first driver, but I've never seen it this bad.

There wasn't a place to give back after the first one, only the second.

True true. After the shenanigans were over, he should've been asked to give the place back, and then get handed out a 5 or 10. Another extra 5 or 10, only if he refused to give the place back.

After the 2nd incident, if he gives the place back he only gets 10seconds for tge first one.

He then finishes 4th.

2nd incident deserved at least 10s penalty. Max ran Norris off the road almost into the wall because Norris had dared to fight max hard. 2nd incident is a high speed corner and max basically tried to send it into the side of Norris at 150+ km/h deliberately. Gotta put your foot down as the stewards on that.

First incident is a 50/50. Pretty sure we saw similar cases in the same GP (Perez/stroll) not get penalised. It seems harsh to give 10s for that especially since Norris gained the place from that exchange and kept it until the t8 incident (did Norris not leave the track at T4 and gain an advantage here?)

Perez has lost his head over lawson :mrgreen: totally rattled
I think the way he has come to Formula 1, I don't think he has the right attitude for it. He needs to be a bit more humble."

"When a two-time world champion was saying things last weekend, he completely ignored him. It's like when you come to Formula 1, you're obviously very hungry and so on, but you have to be respectful as well, off track and on track.

"I don't think he's showing the right attitude. I think he's a great driver and I hope for him that he can step back and learn from it.

"In his first two grands prix he has had many incidents. I think there will be a point where it can cost him too much, like it did this weekend.

"I just think that he has to have the right attitude to say: 'Look, probably I'm overdoing it a little bit, I will step back and start again'. Because if you don't learn from your mistakes, Formula 1 is a brutal world and he might not continue."

This lesson was long due for Max. He was getting dirtier by every race to push out his competitor. Fully deserved penalties, all of them. Hopefully he would learn something out of this.

I would have black flagged Max on the second infraction. He actually tried to cause a collision, and that is unacceptable at any level of motorsport.
