The German Grand Prix has become an unpredictable event thanks to short showers of rain hitting the track. Error-free strategies and zero-mistake driving saw Hamilton win the race from 14th, ahead of team mate Bottas and Kimi Raikkonen.
What is inconsistent? It is very clear cut.subcritical71 wrote: ↑22 Jul 2018, 19:30There is that, so the rule seems to be inconsistent. It'll be interesting to read the reason if the penalty is indeed not enforced.
So there is that. Hamilton didn't enter the pit lane.d) Except in cases of force majeure (accepted as such by the Stewards), the crossing, in any direction, of the line separating the pit entry and the track by a car entering the pit lane is prohibited.
Sloppy wording, perhaps.
They wanted to put wet tyres ? In Bottas' pit stop there was a mess, his tires weren't ready - or so I thought. When his tires got removed, the new tires to put on the car were in their blankets, and they tried hastily taking them off and slapping the ultra softs on the car, which made no sense to me at the time; it was raining, a lot. In hindsight, they might've brought Bottas in and made wet tires ready, only to abort at the final moment to put on ultra softs instead. What must have been at around the same time, they aborted Hamilton's pit entry.
(7:0 if you add Rosberg-Brawn). A farce of "let them race" pure motorsport. Added bonus of fake penalty from helpful FIA. They surely know when to recycle reprimands.
