    Haas is putting up with Maze-spinner because his father has expressed an interest in buying Haas from Gene.
    Therefore it is in Haas' interest to stay alive and keep the spinner until that can transpire.

    I wonder what will happen to that team once Mazepin buys it.

    An additional time penalty would make sense applied at your finish.

    Hmmmm........I'd much prefer ridding F1 of the Lucky Dog rule(Hamilton's recent 2nd was despicable). Being last is punishment enough. Anything more and he just gets in the way earlier..

    It's a bit surprising they issued it since Lando stood up for Nikita.

    For some reason I was reminded of this, which did not end well.

    As another suggested, maybe just giving him a time penalty on his first pit or finish. Image Unavailable, Please Login

    Some of those incidents were from F2...... so, yes, he was pissing people off in the Jr formula as well.

    Very funny yet Mazespin-Useless could have a not good impact on the titles with his actions. This will be fun. Of course any driver around the city of slim streets and walls/not built for SUV sized F1 cars could do the same.

    Well, at least we can count on a safety car and possibly a red flag at monaco! Maze-spin will no doubt bin it spectacularly...

    ... on Friday, Saturday and Sunday...!

    Steiner: "Not easy" to get Haas 2021 F1 car to suit Mazepin

    Gunther Steiner says it is “not an easy task” for Haas to remedy the “weak” rear-end of its 2021 Formula 1 car to suit Nikita Mazepin’s driving style.

    Who else here was amazed that Mazepin kept basically out of trouble all weekend and did not cause a single red flag? Pretty amazing at Monaco and deserving of a little credit.

    I was surprised to find that he finished in front of Schumacher.

    I would have expected it the other way around.

    Anyone knows what happened to Mick ?
