Brazilian Grand Prix 2012, São Paulo - Race 20/20

If true it should be changed, considering in poor conditions the lights on the drivers wheel and track side would be much easier to see.

They are easier to see, but they are also electronic so can be affected by electrical faults or system issues. They are an aid to the marshals, not a replacement.
 
Well in Brazil the area up the hill in the first incident had no marshal posts just the LED lights. So yes they are a replacement as well.
 
Please ferrari dont do this, let it go! as much as i'd have rather seen alsono take the title, this is the wrong way to go about it.
 
Lol, why? If it turns out that he broke the rules then he should have the 20 second penalty. If not then you might as well let Lance Armstrong keep all his drug won tdfs.
 
Shame they are so late that all 3 claimed yellow flag overtakes have been proved to be perfectly fine already.

I must have missed the one regarding Vergne? (Genuinely missed it, I didn't think that one had been countered?)

edit - oh nvm, been a whole page of posts in this thread that i'd completely missed since i last looked at it :p

Whoever posted that long analysis by the guy with a very calm voice... that was a very good analysis and should be used I reckon...

On another note, it would be interesting to see if Alonso made any passes under yellow flags... lets face it, the race was plagued with yellow flags, I reckon Vettel was not the only one guilty of this "crime"...

If a precedent is set for a punishment because of this, I am sure the bods at RedBull will conduct an investigation over the course of the race to see if anyone (read "Alonso") made passes under yellows... lets face it.. the race was hectic with drizzle on and off...

Indeed, if rules were broken, penalties (with whatever consequences they have) should be applied. Don't think that can be much debate about that can there?
