Still dumped him down to 10th - big loss of points.

I don't think he mentally cared about points. Could've easily been a DQ ad well. He was also pretty dejected following qualifying feeling like the WDC wasn't his to win but Oscar and Landos to lose this year.

He may not, but no doubt the team does as it relates to the Constructors’ Championship. Could prove costly in the long run if Ferrari get their act together and Mercedes carry on their positive form. Top driver and multiple world champion or not, that was peak Max petulance on display last night, and it seems like every time he starts to give us all a reason to like/respect him a bit more, he reminds us of his immaturity.

Plus three penalty points, but again special treatment for him. No doubt he crashed on purpose and should have been black flagged or given four penalty points and banned from next race.

I’m looking forward to Lollipopman’s take on the Spanish GP

Clearly Oscar will break Jack Brabham record.

Can’t we have a Eurovision type popular vote and give him one more?

Certainly looking likely. Hopefully breaks his record in terms of Championships as well.

The thing here is if they wanted to be harsh they probably could have given him a 4 pt and race ban, but, its 3.

And it probably would have required intervention by MBS, the irony being that the man who’s on a personal crusade to eliminate swearing as it reflects terribly on the sport, seems to think that road rage is an ok look.

15 races left this season.

But who knows what happens next year with the rule changes.

He’s a protected species for F1 moguls.

Where was RUS penalty for the first bump?
Or the several LAW deserved?
Is HAM going to be in trouble for sulking at the media as well? Or just VER?

And who the hell designed an escape road to be a faster shortcut?

At least they found a way to make it a bit more exciting, throw a safety car with 10 laps to go like NASCAR.

The prayer was RUS and LEC both getting penalty for bumping VER and HUL makes the podium but alas.

Not exactly F1, but is anyone else watching the 24 Heures du Mans? FP1 just kicked off and is being broadcast on Stan Sport.
