Welcome to Monday’s version of the RaceFans round-up.
Remark of the day
Oscar Piastri’s 10-second time penalty for his collision with Andrea Kimi Antonelli prompted lots of debate:
He hasn’t deviated from off the within line in any respect at any level and ran extensive into Kimi, actually the other is true, even with the lock-up he nonetheless had a lot grip (the within wheel is just about unloaded into that nook, given the camber and drop, so it barely impacts flip in), he really managed to regulate his line away from Kimi and get onto a fair tighter line up onto the kerb!
It’s simply not a penalty in my view. If it’s on anybody, it’s most likely on Antonelli, however given he’s received a automobile both facet, I wouldn’t even be too harsh on him there, it’s only a flip one racing incident at a restart with three attempting to enter one.
It feels just like the stewards have determined the injury to Leclerc and DNF consequently meant they needed to be seen to do one thing, and if something, they’ve went the unsuitable approach on the decision.Mark (@Mrcento)
