Watching a football game from the worst seat: “Make me cry, make me cry!”

A slow lap can be done by driving through the pits (or is there some other alternative road?). A car has to do a slow lap if he did not have DRS for 2 laps while the car following did have DRS.

DRS time can be extended to 2 or 3 seconds.

That’s Johan Derksen, Dutch TV personality.

Thanks a lot!

Interesting: although the Dutch news outlets carry extensive messages about Karim B and his escape, none of them mention that it was him threatening Princess Amalia or PM Rutte. Amalia actually went to Spain to study because of the increased danger in Amsterdam. And then they find Karim B. also in Spain…

I wonder how credible this Politico article is and what the stories in Spanish outlets are. Please share links…

Alonso wdc with Honda, the irony! Would be fun if McLaren also switched back to Honda.

So you don’t need to look it up:

Then, on the 57th lap, McLaren’s David Coulthard suddenly had to swerve around Fernando Alonso approaching the chicane, and spun into retirement. “Alonso braked ten metres earlier than he had the lap before,” said Coulthard. “He was dealing inconsistently with problems, as his rear tyres looked completely worn out. But I just got caught out.”[citation needed] The Spaniard continued, and was very nearly caught on the final lap by the recovering world champion. The stewards investigated the incident after a report was filed to them by the FIA race director Charlie Whiting. They spoke to both Alonso and Coulthard and members of their respective teams. After a review of telemetry and video data, no driver was imposed a penalty.

Yes. And now I’m disappointed that it was just as boring.

It is lonely at the top. Would be nice to have a competition.

Yeah sure: “to whom it may concern: f*ck you” Wasn’t that in response to negativity before an Australian GP as well?

FIA claimed at least one team had complained, which one? Was it Redbull or one of its executives?

It is silly season betting time. Place your bets!

Sure, she should have been aware. A reprimand or penalty is correct. But that is not the point. Because she missed it, a potential hazardous situation occurred and there was no other indication to stop the danger than this single flag.

This was a situation that was not foreseen because in F1 radio-messages and fireworks will indicate to the driver that the race is over. In F1Academy this is different. Pit-crew/FIA/stewards must also learn from this and can for example wave the white flag for ‘last lap’, and use the start lights and position lights to indicate ‘track closing’. Or wave blue flags all around the track for the winner and everybody behind.

Fully agree with Damon.

We looked at it in the live show, we were shocked the lights/flags did not signal anything. Also, the finish flag is oddly located, is easily missed and might have come out too late.

From Russel’s car-cam, you can see that Norris first moves while all lights are on. Probably before he actually leaves his start-box, the lights go out. He stops outside the box, everybody starts and he goes last. I can imagine that the sensors did not catch that as a violation. It is (on F1TV) about 1 movie frame that you can see movement under lights on. Would love to see someone slowly playing it with broad-cast quality. It could have been the fastest start ever if he had continued to drive.

Yes, that is the question for RB Racing. The basic question for RedBull is: do they want their brand linked to this racing team, or these team members?

Bearman going to be the first racer in history to score pole positions in both F2 and F1 in one weekend?

Yes. That makes sense. I deleted a piece of my text and now my comment misses my real thoughts. But you’re right I would probably do the same.

Nah. I have now seen the full images. It is definitely a different phone with a different OS. She probably has two phones, one private, one company. Not unusual.
