    True, but maybe not as consequential as asking NOR to let PIA repass to win in Hungary. That was a 7 point loss.

    VER’s yellow flag infringement was for overtaking on the cool down lap. He overtook NOR and gave him the congratulatory thumbs up. Called to the stewards, he was reprimanded

    I think McLaren have to favour NOR for the rest of the season. It’ll be hard enough for him to overcome VER lead let alone for PIA who is a further 44 points behind NOR. And team orders will prevent another surprise overtake, which could have taken both cars out, harming the constructors title...

    Yes NOR seemed thoroughly disheartened. Radio conversations with his engineer about soft or medium tyres replacing the inters were too indecisive according to Brundle. As for Ferraris strategy being poor last year….they're being equally dismal this year too.
