2nd reason:

We have SC on track. About 12 laps to go. Another accident happened. What Masi could do? Set red flag and let them fight for 12 laps?

NO!

Let SC stay on track and waste another 8 laps for riding behind it like donkeys. /facepalm
to be fair, it wasn't really a red-flag worthy incident. The FIA should really do something about this lapped cars rules though. I'm fine with them getting their lap back, but let them do it quickly please, and don't care about them closing back on the field or not
Simplest way: start of the straight, the unlapped car and safety car pull over and slow to pit lane speed, the lapped cars then pass and go flat chat for the lap. Once all lapped cars are past, train gets back to speed for rest of lap. Safety car in once he gets round at the end of that lap. Done and dusted. Bush bash bosh.

I highly doubt he dissed them on purpose. He didn't even know the meaning of it. Maybe just stop provocing.
Fact of the matter is that it is just a very common dutch word for calling someone an idiot ..
Yeah this was made a meal out of by the goddamn PC culture, which is the cancer of social media.
I'm more worried about political leaders supporting the beheading of teachers. Dunno, seems a bigger issue to me...

He chose the wrong presenter. Tiff Needell on the other hand would likely be as strong as Albon.

The most important question is - who was the lady in the red skirt?

What on earth happened today with the lapped cars under the SC??

They were released far too early, going at very high speeds close to marshals still on track.





Hope this will be addressed.

Oh please. And Albon did not say that like that. That is just unfair. Listen to the actual radio in the RBR team thread. He asked if he got hit, indeed thinking it was the case but clearly leaving it open and accepting the input from his engineer.

What else could Russell be thinking. Ofcourse he was devastated. But for sure it will help him in the future. He will be even more carefull and this can happen in a heartbeat. Most drivers have had this happen to them at some point.

Wow :shock: What really needs to happen is very strict ruling (sigh, yes I know, not what we want) for this kind of things. This is the whole point of the SC, safety. This was unsafe. Also the VSC timing. It is now race deciding (today Hamilton would have won anyway) and also there it was very strange why they first waited so long. Now it seems they try to have it not effect the front runners battle as much as possible. Not for one driver in particularly. Just in general. That is my feeling on the decision making processing for when VSC starts and stops, It should be more clear. Car stops, boom VSC starts. Then you can still be lucky or unlucky, but now they waited much too long. Otoh then any opening lap melee will kill all overtaking. Let’s say first lap is excluded as then the field is still bunched up so no laggards blasting by. Allthough, pit stop start. You see, not so easy.

Don't understand why they dont just tell lapped cars to drop to the back of the pack and then add a lap on, would be much safer
