So for now it's (provisionally) Verstappen, Gasly, Sainz, Kimi and Giovinazzi as top 5? That's some crazy shit.  |

Vettel and LeClerc have been summoned by the stewards. It's a paperfest in Brazil.

Its always a good day when louie isn't on the podium but they have taken the racing out of F1. If a driver can't blow by someone on the straight they don't dare take a chance of outbraking going into a corner. Ricardo and Louie calls today were bad but worst call of the year was probably Seb in Canada.

Rici went over the curb and hit Kmag. That isn't even a "there was a gap" moment. While Albon left too much room he was on the racing line. Lewis would have gotten him anywat with the frsher tires.

There are 6 drivers under investigation for DRS open under yellow flags.
Raikkonen and Giovinazzi who are provisionally 4th and 5th are no under investigation

No further action decision on Seb and Chuck............................Hulk 5 sec for passing Kmag before the safety car line on the restart.
Stewards felt both Ferrari drivers could have been able to avoid contact.

So basically 50/50 racing incident there. If the DRS is a FIA fuck up, who gets penalized?

Twitter says no penalty for Sainz...he keeps his podium finish.
Chris Medland @chrismedlandf1
"Sainz has just walked through the paddock with the third place trophy and a pit board celebrating (followed by TV cameras). Still no document from the FIA, but also no official race classification."

Doubt it's the FIA's fault. DRS signal is activated by crossing the timing loops in a less than second gap. The driver gets a light on the wheel and then pushes a button after he crosses the start of the DRS zone.

The race was interesting. We've learned it's Red Bull/Honda cheating not Ferrari. Seb made sure no Ferrari would be on the podium other than himself. Lewis was overtaken twice by some ugly kid then got all flustered. Most notably was how bad we need all new cars. These things can't put on an exciting race for shit.  |

Seb made sure no Ferrari would be on the podium other than himself. It was Le-Jerk that was in "full attack mode" as he (his-own-self) put it before the race! |

Interlagos 1970's.  I loved that classic layout, from the grandstands opposite the old pits you could see the track overlap itself 8 times! |

If exciting races mean watching an undesirable result, I say bring it on. I am not emotionally attached to any driver or team either positively or negatively. I cheer for some, but rarely get mad at the offenders such as Hamilton today. Would some prefer to see Hamilton just mail it in because he is already a 6-time Champion, or would you prefer to see him race hard -- too hard this time!
Having two drivers on the same team who both want to win is not a problem. Nonetheless, Ferrari needs team orders. It worked for Red Bull using Multi-21 with one very notable exception. In the closing laps on the same strategy and the same tires, you boys are done racing each other. The team will decide the final order of finish based on what is best for the team. |

Ferrari has two no. 2 drivers. They are two slow to overtake each other, so they end up crashing

Doubt it's the FIA's fault. DRS signal is activated by crossing the timing loops in a less than second gap. The driver gets a light on the wheel and then pushes a button after he crosses the start of the DRS zone. Fully the FIA's fault - if DRS can't be used in a Yellow Flag Zone - the DRS enabling signal needs to be turned off by the FIA for the Yellow Flag Zone. |

I actually slept through the race. And glad I did. The re-play on F1 TV nearly drove me crazy with Screemin' Simon's breathless commentary! Good grief he is AWFUL!
