Are we checking? This is a place to take a p*ss out of motorsports.

F1 is not the only motorsport in the world, so go ahead and post your shitposts about WEC or MotoGP or IndyCar or ralley or Polish Speedway or whatever. Even Formula E, I guess. It needs some love, too.

By the way, F2 > F1.

Rules? What rules? Stop inventing. Just don't be a douche. Lemmy.world's sporting conduct applies.

After his spin Sainz let the car roll backwards to get it off the the racing line, which is exactly what he should have done. Albon tried going behind him to lose as little time as possible, which is also the right thing to do. It was just an unfortunate incident.

I am more surprised at Red Bull not getting a penalty for asking Perez to drive back to the pits with that dangling wing, all to avoid a red flag!

That was way too risky and an intentional action. Sainz just did what he was supposed to do

They did get a penalty perez has a 3 place grid drop for the nexxt race and they got a 25K fine. A slap on the wrists though for my money.
