A win is a win and would be poetic justice for Canada GP (I know highly unlikely). I would take it lol, wouldn’t be his fault Max got penalized Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
W’ll know in 15 min.....although I like racing, the stewards can do nothing else than a 5 sec penalty.....they know this and are wise enough not to give it directly. It is ruining the sport though as Max was way faster and gave us a fantastic race, Ciao Oscar
So, at the start Kimi zips by Norris, but Vettel has trouble getting by? On that first stop, anyone think they were getting ready for Leclerc, and Vettel tried to jump Leclerc's stop? ... (... and paid the price, coming in before they expected a car.) Good racing by Kimi, holding off Gasley. Sad that Vettel, on fresh softs, couldn't keep fast lap away from Max on older hards. Did Ferrari send the wrong driver to Alfa? Anyone remember Leclerc objecting to being told to keep his pace down, earlier in the race? This really is starting to seem scripted. I can't see the FIA imposing a penalty on Max -- this Max win was supposed to be PR recovery from Canada. Doing the same thing, here, would be viewership suicide. On the other hand, making the results seem too "manipulated" doesn't encourage viewership, either.
If F1 wants to continue on their self destruction path, yes. Live commentary shows that Di Resta (ex F1 driver of course) immediately said ''Max is ahead, he can choose the line, that's fine''. These drivers make split seconds decisions all the time. They don't have the luxury of looking from different angles. And that should count for something.
