MAX CRASHES ON THE RECON LAP TO THE GRID! BREAKS THE LF STEERING AND FRONT WING!

This should be interesting.

I picked him as my DNF. If he doesn't start, does that count as a DNF?

Or does one have to take the green?

We haven't heard anything about Bottas' jumping the start.

And Albon could be DQed for drying his starting grid spot.

Could Ferrari or someone else put a protest in about this?

Vettel will gain a spot.
Leclerc will gain two spots.

Yeah we did. He did move early, but stopped and was stopped when the lights went out. I don't know if that is a penalty or not.

Pretty much the same thing Seb did last year. As long as he was stopped when the lights went out, there shouldn't be a penalty.

How do the Stewards know for a fact the wing put on was exactly the same as the one Max knocked off and ran over? There was also massive breaches of the Social Distancing regulations while working on the car.
I really enjoyed the British Liar King squirm when asked about the blowers being used to dry the track in front of Albon's car. They were stone busted.

Boring easy win for the Grenadian. (zzz)

Huh? WTF is this all about?

Haas were still celebrating Kevin Magnussen’s strong drive to P9 in the Hungarian Grand Prix when they were issued a summons by the race stewards over an alleged use of driver aids during the race’s formation lap.
Magnussen and Romain Grosjean had benefitted form an inspired decision by the team to switch them onto slicks at the end of the formation lap, allowing them to climb as high as third and fourth respectively early on in the race, before Magnussen ended up P9, with Grosjean coming home P15.
