Coming back on track at that angle and speed and thus taking out gasly was some real bs. When stroll is bad, he's really aggravatingly bad.

5 seconds is such a nothing penalty, which makes it more annoying.

Such a slap in the face too when it forces a DNF as well. Like "hey we know that guy forced you to retire, but don't worry we gave him a 5 second penalty!".

Feel like for incidents where one or both parties end up being out of the race because of it, any penalties applied should be a grid drop for the next race. In race penalties seem meaningless when the aggrieved can't benefit from it.

Why not both - 5s for leaving the white lines , grid drop for making another driver retire

That almost looked intentional. I find it somewhat hard to believe that absolutely no other path crossed Stroll's mind. Fucking yikes.

I was expecting a bigger penalty because the contact was absolutely egregious. He was completely off the track and didn't make any attempt to slow down to rejoin.

[–] krische 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Would be nice if they gave him a penalty point, but I doubt they will.

When your negligence/incompetence causes an opponent to retire, a 5 serving penalty doesn't seem fair.

[–] Photographer 5 points 2 years ago

I believe he got 2 penalty points

[–] davetapley 1 points 2 years ago

Should have to pay for the damage too.

[–] therittleman 1 points 2 years ago

He doesn't deserve his seat anyway, but racing like this just proves he shouldn't be in f1.
