    Also probably controversial, but when someone absolutely dicks someone else at the start of the race and ruins their race, like Russell to Hadjar, then the punishment should be you drop down the field until you're behind that driver. 10 second penalty is nowhere near enough when you're now 35 seconds ahead of the guy you punted off

    Leclerc gets a 5-sec penalty, when Russell got a 10-sec penalty for the same thing last week

    Doesn't IndyCar have some sort of rule like that?

    Leclerc will get away with his cheating because he now has clear air. Gonna ruin the team dynamic now.

    Charles titles = 0

    Lewis titles =  7

    Charles just has a head loss over it and leads to shit like this

    I think so, they call it a repositioning penalty or something similar

    Shows how much of a joke Ferrari are... More bothered about Hamilton making them look bad
    Than Leclerc ruining their chances of a 1-2!!

    Ferrari drivers having to be interviewed by Nico in the pen just to add to their woes

    If only that had been a lap or two earlier for Antonelli...

    Does that really need a Red Flag? - Doesn't look like the barriers really need much repair

    Red Flag. Huge shunt for Bottas , hopefully he's okay

    Jesus... Horrible for Bottas, I'd be shitting myself

    Hamilton then fucked again as he pits for new tyres, only for red flag to then be thrown, so he lost a position to Antonelli for absolutely nothing

    The restart should be fun

    I actually think that Bottas crash was nowhere near as big as I thought it could have been, by the time he hit the barrier he had slowed a lot, and the backwards and sideways angle would have dissipated a lot of the energy

    Even more so now, the stewards have decided to go back a lap for the starting positions. Lewis now just behind Leclerc. Would imagine Kimi is happy to finish 4th and keep well away from any trouble

    WTF... Thats just bizarre... Don't ever recall them having done that for a Red Flag!!
    Fair enough if there is a crash before cars go through Sector One at a race start / restart... But thats not the case here

    Hamilton starting P3 for the restart. Better position than Leclerc in P2. Clean side and big tow from Max…… this is gonna kick off between the Ferrari’s at turn 1.

    I wouldn’t want to be in Charles shoes. Lewis will be tearing into turn one behind him

    And hopefully in front of him at turn 2

    Hopefully if Lewis doesn't pass him he takes him out. Never thought I'd ever want a Max win if Lewis can't win himself!

    Now Max under investigation for being out of position. Usually a slam dunk 

    * No Further Investigation

    Croft's fake excitement late into these races is more and more annoying as the season goes on. 

    Hamilton doesn't have the pace to pass Max, but every lap he's like "OOOHHH MY GOOOD CAN LEWIS CLOSE UP AND GET PAST MAX AND HES GAINING GAINING GAINING AND HES STILL 8 CAR LENGTHS BEHIND"

    Max is a great.

    Lewis is a great.

    Kimi is a great.

    Charles is a Cnut

    Pure Partridge from Crofty. So pleased with his goat for a kid line he felt he had to repeat it.

    Can only assume it didn't get the reaction in the commentary box he was hoping for.
