That cat and mouse chase between Lewis and Piastri was so stressful

I can only imagine how frustrated Piastri was the whole time only to move ahead of him because Lewis pitted lol

Kmag with the huge teamwork to get Hulk points

Pretty good racing, nice to see Beaman do so well on his first outing.

What happened to that Norris jumpstart? Did the stewards forget

[–] TheYang@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

I believe sky mentioned that the jump-start sensors didn't trip, indicating that he didn't cross (or touch?) the line.

Basically he stopped far enough back that his movement did not leave his designated area.

They were too busy giving 10 sec penalties to Magnussen for actual racing. Ok maybe the Albon pinch was penalty worthy but 10 seconds?

I thought so too but it sounded like that was the new rule this year that they had to give a 10 second penalty.

Ahh didn't know about that thanks for the precision. Still feels a bit harsh to me, especially the second one where he went wide.

I HATE that they are always shilling for these events.

"It really was a great show here in Saudi Arabia"

You never hear that during the more traditional races. Fuck sports washing.
