Actually, if it’s for safety reasons then fair enough. You do not want what just happened to Verstappen happening to anyone else.

The restart could be explosive.

This seems quite a pointless red flag. Just let them finish the race under safety car.

Why the need, seen as it was only safety car with Stroll?
They want them off the old tyres.

Red Flag because they want them all off them tyres.
Safety car ending would saved them all.
Still a chance of a failure it’s smaller but still there. They want them off them period.

"That's motor racing." These things happen after all.

Will it be a standing restart for just 2 laps? Would seem most curious.

To be honest though Max was off line??
That had nothing to do with it.
Oh really? I state an observation and you state a strong claim? Lets wait till Pirelli investigates. But Max was definitely running far right than normal.

Pirelli sabotaged Lewis last year, it was just a lap too late.

Because Pirelli claimed it was safe.

Pirelli claimed after Lance there wasn’t an issue. Clearly there is.

Max's car seems to need just a nose job and tyre change. Can they just repair his car and rejoin the race? What place would he be? A lap down?
