Leclerc: Verstappen's Brazil move sets F1 precedent

The stewards and the FIA have put themselves in an impossible situation.

I have been replying this race all week.

Last night I took a look at the sprint race again.

Guess what I saw. On the first lap in the same corner, Max was on the outside and Sainz was in the inside. Sainz took the line that Max should have taken.

Notice Sainz had the speed from the slipstream and still made that corner. Max was forced to go on the run off but that's actually a perfect example of a fair pass on the inside in that corner. If Max had done that, there would be no argument.

If the timestamp doesn't work it's 36 seconds in

Mercedes needs pole this track is not great for overtaking or following in dirty air

 

[jj23]

They gave Max a free pass. These fukking people.

The stewards feel the footage is new, it was unavailable at the time, it is relevant but it is NOT significant.

"...there is nothing in the footage that fundamentally changes the facts..."

It is important to note that the following is not an affirmation or review of the Stewards decision made during the race, but rather an assessment regarding whether the right of review exists

I really hope someone runs Max off the fukking track.

Yep I agree, but to be honest I think we all knew, including mercedes, that the appeal was going to get rejected. FIA need to save face

However, it's got the discussion going and is everyone's mind now

They really want that new champion, one way or another.

A couple of times before he started a run, they've told him they need a second of full throttle. I'm not learned enough to know why

Lewis? On the old engine, they could be managing it so it lasts?

 

[jj23]

I feel like someone is going to crash on that pit lane entry.

Hope it isn't Lewis.

Yeah. That could be a reason. I know at times they've told him to keep high revs.
