So, if things are decided on countback, does that mean Aitken and Ghiotto get points?

Yeah looks like it

Wow, huge crash. Lucky not to have been trapped. Those barriers will take a while to fix - they do a great job though vs when you used to see cars bounce along a hard barrier.

Caused by a puncture:

Yeah, I guessed as much as could see the car grounding badly as he understeered into Giotto.

Looks like Ham might be in trouble, under investigation for doing a practice start in the wrong place on his way to the grid.

The FIA will be all over it to add some excitement.

Judging from the pictures, dangerous...

 

[CaptainRAVE]

The heat will kill those tyres.

 

[Lemonlad]

Praying for a penalty for Hamilton, just for a bit excitement

 

[CaptainRAVE]

It’s a poor way to add ‘excitement’.

 

[Psycho Ned]

I don't know why he'd do that though? Very un Hamilton like to make a schoolboy error like that.

Though Netflix are with Merc this weekend so maybe like Germany they're doing their bit to spice up the show!

 

[Lemonlad]

It’s a poor way to add ‘excitement’.

Yeah it shouldn’t be needed but here we are. Nothing worse than the same person leading every single lap of the race.

 

[Slam62]

He's already one step from a race ban

 

[Flibster]

Rousing anthem time....

If he broke a rule then you agree there needs to be a punishment.

 

[Slam62]

Rousing anthem time....

Lol

You mean bottas. If Hamilton is penalised it’ll just be the same but with bottas in that position.

Rousing anthem time....

The Russian anthem is probably the best one of the year.

 

[Slam62]

oh Lewis Lewis bloody Lewis oh hang on Max Max Max

 

[Flibster]

Ok regarding Hamilton under investigation, if you can't do a practice start there, who left the nice black F1 width tyre marks there already?

 

[CaptainRAVE]

I wonder whether it’ll just get investigated after the race. Could be a grid penalty next race.
