did they wait for VET to make the pass before waving yellows? :D because it was 100% clear safety will be out immediately after the crash

Looks like a Halo has possibly saved a driver already.

All the cars in one area which is not near the incident. They were right to wait...
Always find the gap then use it.

Maybe but I think he would've got him at the restart anyway, that Ferrari is mega down that straight with that skinny front wing.

Yep. I don’t think that big straight is very clean. Screams ‘punctures’ that’s obvious.

Looked like Kimi's DRS was broken? The mechanic could move it by hand
