I don't know how I feel about this
To quote Seb, "Well I think it's complete bullshit to be honest π" but that's me sitting here as a casual viewer not stewards knowledge/access.
To me it just feels like another classic inconsistency in decision making.
Absolutely mate, I think it's a bad call but the stewards have access to more video feeds so we have to trust them.
What I will say is that seargant and Williams was fined EUR5000 for something less egregious
Alpha Tauri didnβt show up to the stewards room so got off that one on a technicality.
Wait what. This is ridiculous. One how can AT just skip a FIA summons without repercussions. Amd two why is max exempt if AT does not report. It's not like AT have filed a complaint and have to be there to justify their complaint. The footage of the impeding is their for all to see. Man all this is bullshit.
That's a fair outcome of that's the case
How is that in any way fair? Alpha Tauri, owned by Red Bull, declined to send a representative to the hearing that would have seen Max penalised for impeding. Any other driver would have had a grid drop.
Exactly. Red Bull jnr had to just drop it in favour of Red Bull Sr. Sucks but what you gonna do? π€·
