    10s penalty for Hamilton



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,760 ✭✭✭McFly85


    It’s a bit of a joke to not have a decision on it, so I guess they’ll bottle it and decide racing incident.

    Ridiculous that a driver error could end up being so beneficial to the person that caused it.

    10 seconds penalty



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 15,778 ✭✭✭✭ctrl-alt-delete


    Ten second time penalty to take place in the pits, equates to about 30 seconds - actually he would be pitting anyways. So just ten seconds.

    Hamilton has a 10 second time penalty.

    That's total Bullsh1t. 10 seconds.

    10 second peno for Hamilton!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,866 ✭✭✭PsychoPete


    10 second penalty isn't harsh enough



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,668 ✭✭✭✭namloc1980


    He's lucky it's only a 10 second penalty.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,645 ✭✭✭✭Vicxas


    Better than nothing.

    Not sure how long this will last, but great to see a Ferrari out in front at a fast circuit!

    10 seconds for Lewis



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,382 ✭✭✭petes


    Fairly soft if they are deciding he was at fault tbh

    Ms


    That penalty is at least 10 seconds too short. Very soft penalty from the stewards.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    10 second penalty, he should make that up easy if car not damaged



  • Posts: 25,909 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Should still be a fairly straightforward win for Hamilton from here.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,781 ✭✭✭ASOT




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,760 ✭✭✭McFly85


    Happy to be wrong! Correct decision there.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,271 ✭✭✭Hijpo


    Let's hope Verstappen gets the all clear medically and doesn't miss Hungary. Cracked ribs etc

    What happens if there is a safety car and he pits under it?

    Will he essentially evade penalty as the ten seconds won't matter?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,281 ✭✭✭Longing


    what a absolute joke...It laughable...Should of been 10sec Stop and Go

    Damn. Was hoping for a 10s stop and go.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 59,626 ✭✭✭✭walshb


    Brundle screwing up explaining the penalty..



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,004 ✭✭✭CFlat


    C4 commentators saying the 10 sec penalty is very soft.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,382 ✭✭✭petes


    Could be but LeClerc flying at the minute, hope he makes it last as long as he can!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 9,169 ✭✭✭dublinman1990


    How will the pit stops affect the positions of LeClerc & Hamilton later on in the race? I would think it will benefit LeClerc a lot more in getting in and out of the pits with a clean pit stop before Lewis goes into the pits & has to take his penalty? The order of the drivers will have a big influence in not dropping Lewis further down some further positions while he has his stop.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,668 ✭✭✭✭namloc1980


    Should have been a 10 second stop and go. Very soft penalty in the end



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,344 ✭✭✭waynescales1


    Vettel doing an identical spin to the one he did in.... Baku? 2019? Battling Hamilton.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,382 ✭✭✭petes


    I'd expect some form of protest from RB due to that penalty



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,838 ✭✭✭quokula


    You can always tell someone has lost an argument and have no reasonable points to make when they resort to attacks instead.

    Yep, the time penalties are silly. 5 seconds could be meaningless or cost 10 spots. Depends too much on external factors despite being a "fixed" penalty.
