But if it's only at one end, it would be less than that”
The problem here is, that 0.2/85=0.0024 or 0.24%. (Not saying it matters at all, but the first guy already fecked up the percentages.)
It could have just come loose going over a sausage curb.What damage though? I can't remember Lewis hitting anyone, or anything in qualifying, so where did the damage come from?
Didn't Red Bulls get damaged in the last GP?It could have just come loose going over a sausage curb.
There’s a few decent YouTube channels that are good at breaking things down for idiots like me. Been watching years but without colourful graphics I may as well be listening to Mandarin.Where do you guys get all your F1 news? I’ve only been following F1 since finishing Drive to Survive in April so not really sure how to stay updated. I watch every quali and every race, but there is always stuff that happens in between race weekends that I miss.
Yes. If the Stewards had tried to push a gauge through the taped up DRS last week undoubtedly it would have gone through because tape gives.Didn't Red Bulls get damaged in the last GP?
And they said it was damaged from driving (curb impacts?)
And they fixed it (tape)?
And stewards said fine (because they asked)?
Still broke the rules, how much tolerance do you give ?0.2mm
The FIA are utterly pathetic.
Fair enough lads appreciate the replies. I understand it's crunch time but definitely not over yet. Can never count out someone as talented as Hamilton especially when his car is at the very least top 2 fastest. I just hope there are no more accidents. Let's see some good racing over the last few GPs
Still broke the rules, how much tolerance do you give ?
You can't give any, that's the way it has you be, harsh for 0.2mm , yeah maybe.
He hit a few kerbs in qualifying, maybe that knocked it out of tolerance.
Looks like another red bull complaint to the fia about the flex in the merc rear wing is almost inevitable

Find this absolutely ridiculous tbh. The stewards are there for a reason and if they can penalise Mercedes’ for DRS being 85.2mm then I am sure that they won’t let them get away with some sort of rule break which is giving them a massive advantage apparently. This sort of constant badgering by Redbull just creates needless doubt & controversy
That’s interestingGuanyu Zhou should be confirmed in the second seat at Alfa Romeo on Tuesday.
Lando has already said that he won’t defend against Hamilton so expect him to make quick progress. This will all be about how far Max can get up the road and wonder if they’ll play games with Bottas to slow Max down.
Not defending because he is clearly miles quicker, I assume?
How can Red Bull change their rear wing between qualifying and the race every single race without penalty?
Red Bull and doing stuff like this is why I hope Max never wins a championship with them.Looks like another red bull complaint to the fia about the flex in the merc rear wing is almost inevitable

Needing Bottas to perform is like relying on Spurs for a resultBottas slightly useless again![]()
Hamilton could be third in a few laps, interesting moves already
Hamilton could win this without opening his DRS at all.
That speed advantage is farcical.
Fifth, wasn't it?20th yesterday to third. It's insane
