My mini pre race prediction is that Yuki will try his best to back up the field as much as possible through sector 1 for as long as Norris is behind him0

Its always a shame that Jeddah is where it is, as its one of my favourite modern GPsAFKABartram said:Got a feeling this is going to be a really good Grand Prix0 -
Surely Verstappen can't get away with going off the track on that early corner?2
-
Same old Max. Always cheating.3
-
Mini went off there about three / four times in the F2 races this weekend, and barely got penalised for it, so not sure what'll happen from that!!0
-
Correct decision for Max I think0
-
5 second time penalty is not much use for Piastri there who lost a place because Max acted illegally1
-
Correct decision but MB is right that he should have to give it back too but Max and sportsmanship aren't used in the same sentence2

Yeah may have misremembered, the FIA definitely tried but think the drivers pushed backForeverAddickted said:

This is why Verstappen is disliked by everyone but his fanboys.
The fact is, he’s insanely talented, yet he continually insists on dirty play and being underhand. You can call it competitive spirit, but when he makes moves like today, he’s so bang to rights he just looks like a cheat.
It’s a good job his car isn’t the best in the field this year, because then he could build a 5 second gap and that penalty would be worthless.
Personally, I feel if you gain an advantage and don’t give it back quickly enough, you should get 5 seconds AND be obliged to give it back. Or, if that’s impractical, 10 seconds.7 -
Max apparently has his own rule book. Anyone else & they give the place back. But not Max. He just gets a 5 sec penalty that he'll take when he is 20 secs ahead.fenaddick said:5 second time penalty is not much use for Piastri there who lost a place because Max acted illegally.0 -
You can bet your life that if Piastri had gone off the track, Verstappen would be absolutely screaming into his radio that he should give the place back.3

Sensational move from Piastri on Lewis.5

Leclerc is having a great race2
-
Would be great if the faces of the sport were Piastri,Norris, Leclerc and Russell for the next few years and a certain someone just left.3

Think its going to take a lot to beat Oscar Piastri this season
Felt watching last season that he'd be McLaren's bigger threat than Lando3 -
He won't have been happy with 4th at the start of the weekend, but starting from 10th i think Norris will be pretty pleased with how that ended up.
Piastri's 3rd win in the last 4 races though, right now you'd have to say he looks the more likely to win the title.3 -

Absolutely childish behaviour from Max with DC.
Such a contrast to Piastri.1 -
I'm not sure that's how it works. If you go off the track and gain an advantage, and you give the place or places back voluntarily, there is no further investigation and therefore no further penalty.golfaddick said:

Today that was what happened and the penalty was deemed to be 5 secs which i thought was lenient but in the end turned out to be worth exactly one place1 -

Answered one question then DC mentioned the incident and he said "See you in Miami" and walked off!ForeverAddickted said:

He really doesnt like it when he doesnt win, but is probably the worst loser out there3 -
It doesn’t help that Whinger Spice comes on the radio and encourages Max, saying that they were only 2.4 seconds behind. Feeds Max’s resentment that he would have won without the 5 second penalty. They really do deserve each other, those two. And that team as well.3

You'd think that he'd be eternally grateful to the stewards as, after all, it was them that handed him his first driver's championship.ForeverAddickted said:

It's a shame it's Miami next and we'll have to deal with Danica Patrick on summary duty.2
