Think that was some common sense from the FIA to re-instate Norris' time for once.
He clearly didnt gain an advantage by going off track when starting his pole lap, and his delta showed him being +0.08 (?) when he started that lap, so did it at a disadvantage.
What people wont like is the fact that it opens the rules to interpretation again
I'd be surprised if he didn't have significant gardening leave to serve regardless of where he goes. Aston would make a lot of sense on a personal level if he doesn't want to relocate, they also have his former deputy Dan Fallows there already.
But there's always going to be that allure of Ferrari and an 8th WDC for Lewis that I think will be hard to resist.
Hulkenberg and maybe Sainz at Audi, but I still think Red Bull will push for him (especially if the whole Max thing blows up) and he'll end up there, he's the best person available for a top team right now, and there's no-one else with Red Bull ties worthy of the seat, especially as Danny Ric is looking like a busted flush more and more right now
McLaren's IndyCar fortunes seem to have taken a turn for the worse, all 3 drivers finishing in the bottom 7 at the weekend, and then releasing Malukas as the injury he picked up before the season started is worse than they thought
Red Bull have confirmed the departure of Adrian Newey, he'll leave in Q1 2025 and will now be focusing solely on the RB17, their upcoming Hypercar - So be interesting to see how the Red Bull F1 car does in 2025, although imagine Adrian's involvement is already done.
Will be interesting to see what happens with Newey, I'm not overly convinced he is going to Ferrari at his age. Am assuming he will have some form of gardening leave built into this package too.
Such a disappointment when all the racesuits and merchandise is blue and they come up with this.... I was hoping for something like the Gulf McLaren livery from 2 years ago , the added HP logos don't especially work well with it either.

But then there are always rules like that
If Max Verstappen didn't exist
Why the hell didnt Williams just tell him to give the place back?
If it's coming from Tobi and AMUS I'd expect an announcement is coming soon
BBC have confirmed it
Adrian Newey: Red Bull design chief to leave team - BBC Sport
I bet the car has barely any blue on it, but this is beautiful
I imagine he'll be able to go wherever he likes and name his price.
Or giving Alonso a car to finally win another WDC?
Or (given he's 65 and not full time anymore) riding off into the sunset and giving someone else a go
But there's always going to be that allure of Ferrari and an 8th WDC for Lewis that I think will be hard to resist.
Ironically he could well end up being the lowest points scorer in an F2 season to end up promoted to F1
Think Sargeant when he finished P5 has that honour at the moment

History dictates though, that teams dont do so well once they lose Newey, given Williams fall from grace.
Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of people!
The helmets are in blue, the race suits are in blue - The car...
So I'm not sure why people expected them to paint the whole thing blue!
