Another team fine coming for Mercedes for ‘driving slow behind safety car’

Hope them Merc chaps have deep pockets

nobody should be penalised for doing the safest thing. bollard or no fucking bollard.

What happened with Ferrari and Leclerc is nothing to do with what Hamilton done.

But I take it you complained about that decision too?

Leclerc done nothing wrong, so they punished the team. Hamilton knew what he was doing and gets away with it.

Apologies, but I'm still not following. If he did nothing wrong, why are they punished?

and now the hulk's binned it round the last corner.

That'll be another safety car

All that Ferrari fine has done is encouraged teams to risk unsafe releases more often. If they want to stop giving the driver a penalty for those incidents (which I understand) then why not just take point off Ferrari in the constructors standings as well as the fine?

Because the Ferrari mechanics were at fault.

I said "That's fucking pointless. Like fining Man City £50 for cheating." Is that sufficient?

Not really, surely you should be complaining about Leclerc getting away with it like Lewis?

Why should Leclerc be punished? He goes when the pit crew says he can go.

Because the driver has always been punished for an unsafe release. Why the sudden change?

Thanks. So support team vs. driver. Interesting application!

As of right now Sainz is finishing on the podium

I take that back, he's pitted.

Ask the guys that dished out the penalty. Still nothing to do with Hamilton benefitting from bending the rules.

he's having an awful race in all in all.

verstappen has been brilliant and fully deserves the win today.

Two incidents where one driver got away with breaking rules and nothing is said and another one where you’re complaining.

Is it wet?

I thought Hamilton breezed into the distance when it was wet.
