Absolutely. LeClerc was fined €5000 (+€5000 suspended) for using profanity outside the track. Profanities are now more severely punished than illegally driving on a track while stewards and a driver are walking around.

Yesterday a team provisionally earned €30,000,000. A fine of €50,000 is a joke when compared to rewards like that. If touching a competitor’s car provides information that makes you win races, it is absolutely worth it. See https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/the-mercedes-rear-wing-marks-behind-red-bulls-suspicions/6799537/ and https://www.racefans.net/2021/11/13/verstappen-fined-e50000-as-stewards-rule-he-did-no-direct-harm-touching-hamiltons-rear-wing/

Norris created a potential dangerous situation for Stewards, much worse than a sporting advantage.

Of course it does not make sense. It was a reference to what Max said, and I added a smiley.

Formula 1 has become a joke. If a driver would do the same in a karting championship, they would be instantaneously disqualified.

Norris has the right passport 😜

Why?

The main question will be WHO to punish (if at all) as all of them drove around.

It is also unfair towards the teams that did choose for wet and lost places because of that.

Could be a heavy punishment for Lando. With stewards on track there was a potential danger which should result in penalty.

Sure. But considering the past three incidents, we know the outcome: FIA will publish that it is not allowed and that they could not find proof of cheating.

No, Michael!!! No!!

Formula 1 is loosing its credits in my book. Another shitshow with Herbert in the steward’s office.

There is a linguistic mistake here, or is it actually what they did?

The Stewards do not consider that this breach reached the same level as the most recent case…

Did they mean:

The Stewards considered that this breach did not reach the same level as the most recent case…

I would not be surprised if they need two new drivers at RBR soon.

The Stewards do not consider that this breach reached the same level as the most recent case and as such chose to levy a fine of €10,000 with €5,000 suspended pending no repeat within 12 months.

Ridiculous argumentation. They should have considered the opposite: “competitor has not learned from previous case and will get double the penalty”

But it would be even better if they would stick their heads in the Arabian desert sand and shut the fuck up with this completer and utter bs.

How do you recognize your migraine? And what do you take for it?

If I can’t avoid it or if I’m in a hurry, I will take Paracetamol 500mg. If there is no change within an hour, I’ll take Ibuprofen 600mg. But if I have time, I will get some rest (avoid bright light, close eyes and listen to podcasts).

He got a serious warning last week, but he did not learn from it. This will cost him badly, next year Norris will drive nr 1. Maybe that will be a lesson for him.

Not learned anything from last week.
