yesterday they were saying Perez was gonna drive this weekend cos he had passed the quarantine and was asymptomatic

but he failed the test today so Hulkenberg is in again

The FIA have upheld Renault’s protest over the Racing Point brake ducts and fined the team as well, as deducting them 15 points. The drivers will keep their Points.

They can still run it for the rest of the season the brake ducts?

Yes. The FIA said forcing RP to re-design would be futile as any new design would be based on already learned knowledge.

Well the 15 points is a bit of a blow but come season end I don't expect the standings to be that close where 15 points is a difference in finishing position. We'll see though

 

The fine tho :lol: a comment of YT cracked me up. Lawrence Stroll wipes his ass with 400K

This,

:rofl:

 

 

Ferrari, McLaren and Renault have appealed the decision.

Honestly so raging about the leniency of this punishment. its a f***ing joke. The entire existence of the tracing point makes a mockery of the sport. I've backed my team the whole way with the protest and I'm so glad they're appealing the "punishment".

it's surprising cos in the past I thought they had been very strict

they should have taken away all the points from these 3 last races

Tracing Point could they really get Hulkenberg that podium???

I really hope not as I don’t want it to be stripped off him later :(

Looooove the Hulks achievement, hope he can get a good points finish from it at least

Verstappen doing excellently! Good to see that there is a set of conditions that Mercedes aren't the best in after all.

Of course, in the world according to Hamilton that doesn’t exist at all and Verstappen must be using illegal tyre pressures.

 

 

Can hear his crying from Berlin.

Is it worth this evening the race?

Is it worth this evening the race?

It depends.

 

Knowing the result will lower your enjoyment as it was interesting to speculate how it would play out rather than exciting to watch.

Is it worth this evening watching the highlights?

I'd say probably but much comes down to what appeals about the sport. It's not full of incidents or passing but had a decent amount of unpredictability, and differing strategies, for a while

Is it worth this evening the race?

Its the first race I've watched fully in quite a while, but that was in spite of the actual race itself and more to do with trying to understand the local language commentary

sure it's at least worth watching the highlights

 

I thought it was quite interesting and hard to tell what was gonna happen, it was all about strategy and wouldn't have called the winner

I certainly enjoyed it. It wasn’t a classic race with loads going on but was very unpredictable throughout which kept you guessing, and was delighted with the outcome.

 

I’m glad that the majority of the field is a bit tighter this season, generally makes for a lot of close and interesting racing.

Excellent win for Max. That boy needs to be a world champion.

 

Disappointed for Hulkenberg - he deserved to finish ahead of Stroll, but at least he has proven what he can do again
