I've got one for you. 15 second penalty and a colouring book so you can practice staying in the lines.

I agree with you. Track is a track. With curves, limits and that stuff. We all know they are faster if they don't brake but... like in any other GP?

Haha, well put! The only thing I really don’t like at all is the fact that the final results changed so much after the chequered flag/podium… I think they were just overloaded with all the track limit violations

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

yeah, but I see that as primarily, the drivers fault.

You fucked up so much, that the ones checking you couldn't keep up.

That’s true… but I think they should just upgrade their system for detecting track limits to an automated one. Although, I read somewhere that this is not possible on all tracks.

They were definitely overloaded. While driving in lap30+ they were still dishing out tracklimits for lap 11. They had a huge backlog to get through. After about lap 35 it looked like they picked up the pace, but seeing how many tracklimits they must, I think the stewards got a hurry up and became a bit sloppier. Although the last part is just speculation by me.

Like I said in the other comment, they should use a automated system…

I can definitely see them getting sloppier haha, I think it was like 1200 violations in total - I can’t even start to imagine how painful this must be
