Hello lovely Patreon patrons!

Max seemed to think that Redbull could have chosen not to give the place back, and still win the race if he built up a 5 second lead. Is that right? I don't think he should be able to ignore the stewards like that and the penalty should be big enough to ensure he doesn't benefit if he does ignore them.

I think he was going on precedent, that minor track limit penalties incur a five second penalty. You can look back to Vettel's lost win in Canada for that. Of course, Lewis himself lost a win in Belgium 2008 for going off track for the lead; he got a 25 second penalty because they didn't have smaller penalties available then

So the event notes intended the turn 4 rules to promote keeping cars apart, but restrict passing? Sounds like 20 years of F1 rules to me, wish we were past this. (Agree with preamble, thanks)
